Finding z/OS 2.1 fixes

2019-12-16 Thread Brown, Duncan
I don't have any support for my z/OS 2.1 system. Yea, I know... We have an issue with DB2 v12 Image copies abending with a ABEND0B0 and I want to be able to search 'something' to figure out if it's a z/OS issue. I do have an issue open with IBM for DB2 and with ASG for Zara. Both are

I track ASID usage with the free MXI from Rocket. I track it because some product leave the ASID's in a 'not-reusable' state. I execute it in a batch job and create a running total of how many are available and how many are not-reusable. I've been burned a couple of times when there were no
