Re: LISTCAT for a VTOC

It's not what you don't know that kills you, it's what you know that isn't so. Not only don't you need to call a second REXX script from the REASY prompt after you exit ISPF, but once you exit from ISPF the ISPF services are no longer available. -- Shmuel (Seymour J.) Metz

Actually I did it. OK, not me, but I had power outage. Several ones (we had strong winds). What's stupid I also tried connection over my mobile phone acting as Wifi hub - completely different provider. No effect. Of course I did not restart the rest of Internet ;-) However thank you for your

Disconnect your internet connection, then reconnect. It may select another route. It may restart from the beginning. You might try Trace Route. Then you might try TRACETCP. It is a utility program that does a trace route using a specific port. On Sat, Apr 10, 2021 at 3:22 PM Radoslaw

To complement: it is still "in progress". Seven hours later. And approx. 24h after I started download. And something funny: seven hours ago I saw "2 hours left" and now I see "2 hours left". Big progress! Transfer rate is changing constantly, but now its rather close to 15kB/s. Yes, all other

Re: LISTCAT for a VTOC

I was translating from batch to REXX in my head. If it's possible (so I've read, but never tried it) to run ISPF in batch, if you allocate all the ISPF DDs, then it should be possible to allocate them in REXX and do the same thing. But if I do that anywhere but the READY prompt, the

How to tell if zEDC is active for an LPAR or DASD pool

Just a question of curiosity: Is it possible to tell if zEDC compression is active for an LPAR or for a particular DASD pool? Perhaps an ISMF screen? I know how to check with LISTCAT whether a file WAS compressed via zEDC, but I would like to know how to tell whether or not it WILL be used
