Yes, because z/OS (well, the allocation routines anyway) knows nothing of the
back-end storage. As far as z/OS is concerned its data is still sitting on
SLED 3390 volumes so things like free extent sizes and so on still matter.

Hi Steve,
As the OP, I agree that this doesn't appear to be an SDSF issue. I was trying
to make sure it wasn't a display issue with my third party software, and
knowing that others who are running SDSF are having the same issue gives me
confidence that it is a problem in (most likely) JES2.

This may not help with your current issue, but a couple thoughts come to mind.
Take a look at protectall. With protectall active, if there's no RACF profile

to check is this, do you have discrete profiles

I have a couple of these stools from older mainframes, and unless Gadi's has
been modified, it should be OK. They had rubber wheels on them, and there was
a rubber skirt around the base of the stool that should keep any static
electricity - static.

Are you sure about that? I didn't think the ladder or stool were CPU serial
dependent. I'm in trouble then if our z14 ever needs repair because I shipped
the z14's ladder back with the z12 it replaced and we kept the 12's ladder.

Tom,
The idea is to apply 2.1 maintenance that would make 2.1 compatible with 2.3.
Since IBM won't release 2.4 compatibility maintenance for 2.1, if there's some
that would make 2.1 co-exist with 2.3, that might make it easier for the OP to
make the jump from 2.1 to 2.4.

Brian,
What datasets do you mean by "IPL datasets cataloged to &SYSR1"? Everything on
my SYSRES is cataloged to &SYSR1 except SYS1.PARMLIB and we IPL just fine.
According to the 2.2 INIT & TUNING manual, changing &SYSR1 is not allowed in
IEASYMxx at all. The further documented restriction is
I saw one on a BUNCH machine compiler, except that it didn't fail, it just gave
the wrong result. It was a fairly straightforward COMPUTE statement, something
along the lines of COMPUTE D=C-(A*B). The result came back as D=C+(A*B).
Didn't take the company long to produce a fix for that one!

Hi Barbara,
z/OS 2.2, SYS1.PARMLIB cataloged using **, SYS1.PROCLIB not on the res
volume, everything else cataloged to &SYSRS1. It works fine. I'll keep your
warning about PARMLIB in the back of my mind and not try something dumb like
recataloging it to &SYSRS1 when we go to 2.4 next yea
Or as a temporary solution until you're firmly onto a single SYSRES, you could
place something like this in IEASYMxx:
SYSDEF
SYMDEF(&SYSR2='&SYSR1')
This way you won't need to change your catalog entries at the cutover time,
minimizing your chance of pro

Yes, I'm using the GUI install and selecting IM, DB2, WAS, and SKLM. The

Hi Carmen,
No, the ID doesn't exist on the mainframe but I don't think it needs to be
there. I'm currently running ISKLM 2.5 and the DB2 ID that is defined with
the older ISKLM exists only on the ISKLM 2.5 servers as a local admin. Since
this DB2 ID is used only on the SKLM server for local

Kirk,
I think your link is broken. Either that or my end but when I copy/paste (or
just click on it) I get the ellipses in the URL.
