We are in the process of migrating dasd and I thought I would convert from
Mod-9s to Mod-27s as part of the process. We just had a sort blow up due to the
application coding option NOBLKSET.

I do not believe VLSHRT requires NOBLKSET. I would try removing NOBLKSET
from the sort and try again.

The situation you describe would be true for SMS using Guaranteed space.
For non-SMS volumes you should be getting 16 extents on volume one followed by
16 extents on volume2 for a PS file.

Another problem with Peter Farley's formulation of this issue is his
use of the phrase normally skilled professional application

is controversial. The question what skills they do in fact usually
have is less so.

The problem is that ISPF/ISREDIT evaluates/substitutes any ISPF variable, which
in this case is PDQR.
So:
ISREDIT F ALL 'DISP=SHR,DSN=MSYS.UCMD.REMOTE'
is the same as
ISREDIT F ALL 'DISP=SHR,DSN=MSYS.UCMD.REMOTEPDQR'
and is the same as
ISREDIT F ALL
Is it possible that if you code PDQR as PDQR edit strips the first
ampersand and looks for the string the way you want? I have some code
which does something similar with SYSNAME variable in the started task
JCL. I change a string containing that variable during DR adjustments of
the VTAM
Short answer: most likely not.
Slightly longer answer: although all CPU's wait at the same speed, they vary in
most everything else.

Jon, thanks for the thoughtful reply. Much appreciated.
You say the z900 is 1/8 as fast (powerful, whatever, fill in your favorite

is 1.48 times as fast as those on the z900, and in addition the -722 has 22 of
While I am at it...
WHY the Ampersand SYSTEM WORKS in the find,
but if you use PDQR rather than $PDQR it fails is just madness.

L ISREDIT F ALL P'DISP=SHR,DSN=MSYS$UCMD$REMOTE$PDQR$(SYSTEM$'

FYI. From ISPF You can see that Picture Strings are powerful
A picture string is a quoted string that is preceded or followed by the
letter P. It can contain blanks, alphabetic and numeric characters
which represent themselves, or any of the special characters listed
Thanks to everyone! I have kept plugging at this and tried all your
suggestions.
Here is what I see so far.
1) There is no reason syntactically that this should not work
ISREDIT F ALL 'DISP=SHR,DSN=MSYS.UCMD.REMOTEPDQR.(SYSTEM)'
2) For some strange reality THIS works
ISREDIT F
Thank you guys for the information.

Jeff,
I believe hsm runs using local times, so you could have data created on one
LPAR migrated/deleted earlier/later on another LPAR in different time zone.
rmm has an option to use a common time (UTC/GMT) instead of local time,
avoiding similar problems during retention/expiration.
See rmm
That's one of the very frustrating things about this problem.
Almost EVERY variation of these ISREDIT FIND's work just fine as the
'commands between the quotes' in TSO/ISPF.
So, why don't they work the same way in ISREDIT? Beats me, that's for
sure.

I would say that on the average the z9 is 1.48 times faster , but that number
depends on what the program is doing. The number could be 1.1 to 1.8 depending
on what the batch program is doing. It's the old - your mileage will vary
