Re: HSM question

Tony, When DFHSM does migration and backup by dataset (not an auto-function) it will not MARKFULL the tape. Make sure you users are not doing this. An HBACKUP or a HMIGRATE command should send the result to ML1 DASD unless ML2 is specified on the HMIGRATE command. There are settings in the

Hi all.. On a z12 Mainframe with two physical box, with 8 LPARS on a Sysplex configuration and Coupling Facility option, there are 6 Lpars for production and 2 Lpars for previous environment (development or test); how can I display if zIIP processor are assigned or used by Lpars of previous

Re: HCM security

We use HCM. I cannot find any RACF profile specifically for HCM. Since HCM involves downloading an IODF and later uploading the modified IODF back to the host, I suspect that HCM is controlled by the HCD profiles: CBD.* in class FACILITY plus related DSN profiles. . . J.O.Skip Robinson

From the RTFM: HCM access to the host can be controlled using CL(APPL) CBDSERVE profile. But it seems to be true only for z/VM. Q: Is there any profile controlling user access to HCM on z/OS ? -- Radoslaw Skorupka Lodz, Poland --- Treść tej wiadomości może zawierać informacje prawnie

Re: HSM question

The elapsed time is 10 minutes. Before we get off-track too much, the end result we are looking for is: We want the HSM backup process to *always* use a scratch tape. We never want it to ask for an existing tape to append to. We will recycle the tapes to combine them at our convenience. But,

Other options: 1) Use Automation tool or MPF to automatically respond Y or N 2) Find out where the tape resides physically. Is it on a desk or next to the tape drives? At some shops I have worked at, we automatically responded N to this message and just let DFHSM pick it up next time and

Re: HSM question

So I would say your MOUNTWAITTIME of 10mins is too short. The default for HSM is 15 mins if it is not coded. You probably need to do the following 1) Change the mount wait time to make it longer. 2) Review the history of tape mounts in general and see what is going on when HSM is getting

I'm a DB2 SysAdm/SysProg and DB2 maint always has reams of hold data. The longer you leave it the bigger the job to wade through it all and build the required jobs. Multiply it by many DB2 sub-systems and the job gets bigger and bigger. You have to have the toleration fixes on the current release

Re: A true discussion in today's world (at least here)

I agree with Tony, the analogy doesn't fit. Not fixing a car that isn't broken makes sense. Not applying fixes for KNOWN errors usually doesn't make sense. We all know that PTFs can go PE and cause problems, but you have to weigh up the likelihood of a known error causing you serious problems.
