Dialog test allows you to capture ISPEXEC calls before and after execution.
it is mainly used for debugging a program. To test a menu panel, you can
use the test option or exit to TSO prompt and try PDF TEST to invoke ISPF
in test mode which doesn't use the panel cache.

Hi
I must confess that I have never played much with ISPF dialog test option
I have figured out that dialog test can help me to verify changes done in a
panel and i was able to see it. What would the other functions within
dialog test that can also simulate a option to select a panel and check

So if I have two
The pds command is case insensitive in this area - dataset names and member
names are all converted to upper case as is standard for z/OS. The commands as
well are case insensitive.
Try it - you'll love it.

Lennie,
My understanding based on my notes from Peter is it’s the ECVTCTBL which is
+ x’CC’ into the ECVT. The customer anchor varies on it’s offset into the
ECVTCTBL
Peter the IBM authority we are just a customer.

Sigh. No such thing as CVTCTBL, which Peter Relson pointed out several
days ago. Both fields are in the ECVT:
ECVTCTBL DCV(CSRCTABL) Customer anchor table.
* Slots assigned by IBM.
...
ECVTCTB2 DCV(CSRCTAB2) Customer anchor table 2
*
Thanks.

1. No; it's a relic of having shared storage. Going to MVS doesn't change that.

When I've use CVTUSER I had a mod to the macro the assemble the correct

your installation, all bets are off. BTDT,GTS.
Getting an external vendor to change its code to fit installation conventions
is a lot more than
He did, and he did.
In this day and age, there is no excuse for using, e.g., CVTUSER, TCBUSER. IBM
has provided safer alternatives.

Willie,
If your shop has FILE-MANAGER then it is quite simple to copy using
MEMSTART and
The 1st thing you should do is to get the PDS command from File 182 on the
CBTTape.org site.
Then the copies would be this easy:
pds large-pds copy a:f small-pds1 shr
pds large-pds copy g:z small-pds-2 shr
And that is just one of the 100's (or 1,000's) of things you can do with
If TSO is an option for you:
3.3, then enter the dataset names only on the source and target panels,
and then, when on the panel where the members can be selected, do
S A*
S B*
S C*
S D*
S E*
S F*
that's it for the first part.
I agree: for the second part, it is not that easy ...

I am tryin to copy a large pds to 2 smaller pds's. I am trying to copy all

Hello
I am trying to understand if it is possible to backup the CA spool
checkpoint or spool dataset while CA Spool is up ?
Will ADRDSSU works ? Or which copying utility can help to achieve this?
There are no mentioning about this in CA spool guide .
Any advice on this is much appreciated
