Hi

I have installed zosmf 2.2. i don't see TCPIP configuration assistant on

I believe a plugin have to be imported. Is there a sample plugin that i can

Abend0B0 is rarely a z/OS defect, more likely an error in the program
requesting a SWA service. It can even be due to a JCL error (e.g. if you

It probably depends on which parameters for what subsystem. JES2 has a series
of $D commands to display the current parameters which you can then compare to
the text in the parameter member. z/OS has a similar set of operands to the
DISPLAY command that somewhat mirror the various parameter

We experienced a lot of brouhaha during Y2K preparation over the ancient and
venerable TSO Utilities: COPY/MERGE/... Their link edit dates were in the early
1970s. We had to fight up the chain of command to avoid deleting them. Of
course they work as well--or poorly--today as they did in 1999.

Lots of OS/360 code can still be run unchanged. Some will take an ABEND S0C4

Permanent ISPF tables reside in a PDS data set which will have to be
