Re: Have you enabled MIDAW and zHPF? If not, why not?
W dniu 2012-06-22 16:47, Thomas Conley pisze: I'd like to take a private survey to determine which sites have enabled both MIDAW and zHPF, or if you haven't enabled either or both, why. It's come to my attention that some sites may not have enabled these options. In the case of MIDAW, you have to take action to place MIDAW=NO into IECIOSxx, but for zHPF, you have to turn it on with ZHPF=YES in IECIOSxx. Both options can significantly lower your I/O overhead and increase throughput, and I haven't come up with a reason for not enabling them. MIDAW, zHPF, HYPERPAV are enabled on every DASD which support it. No reasons found to not enable any of the features. -- Radoslaw Skorupka Lodz, Poland -- Tre tej wiadomoci moe zawiera informacje prawnie chronione Banku przeznaczone wycznie do uytku subowego adresata.

Nobody asked for that. 2. It wouldn't help. What would help is an explanation of the *specific* errors that cause the message to be issued. The messages are not self explanatory, despite half a century of IBM's claims that they are. For example, P/I has a compiler messages manual, but the explanations still require you to read the Language Reference Manual to solve the problem. I've solved plenty of problems using the explanation in the PL/I messages manuals[1] without recourse to the language reference manuals, also there certainly some infrequent cases where I needed to look up the syntax. But I have never seen a COBOL manual that came close to the quality of the PL/I manuals I've used. [1] Not that they were perfect. -- Shmuel (Seymour J.)
