GIMAPI using Rexx

Has Anyone here tried this in Rexx? There is no formal way of doing that, but in a limited functionality - it works. The Version call work just fine. I tried the QUERY call and I can see that input is validated, and if wrong returns the RC, CC and error msg in the message buffer. This means that

I agree "better" should be the way. Disp=old is not the way. Either propagate ispf edit enque or offer some sort of EASY extensible option to add something like git to handle member changes. Rob On Fri, Aug 31, 2018, 7:53 AM Jerry Callen wrote: > Andrew Rowley wrote: > > On 31/08/2018 3:05

Mark, You keep saying G as in Gigabit speeds, but are you sure you don’t mean M as in Megabit speeds? Unless you have really good 5Gigabit upload service from your house...That said I'm going to assume you mean 100Mb connection, that’s not real fasthow much data are you talking about?

You are only going to transmit within the confines of your slowest network segment and any processor/WLM or I/O delays. Over the years there I have experienced a number of weird things that can dramatically affect ftp. I am sure that others can chime in. Tracking this down is going to take some

We have a customer that has to send us a large amount of data. They claim that our ftp server is very slow. I have had our network people tell me that we have 100GB pipe to our ftp server and if they say it's slow it is most likely their upload speed. I have tested the upload speed to our ftp

Incremental volume and dataset backups

2018-08-31 Thread IBM user
Hi IBM-MAIN list, What can you recommend for incremental backups for volumes with strictly non-DB2 datasets (VSAM and non-VSAM)? I know ADRDSSU supports this. If you use ADRDSSU, how do you manage the rotation of the backups? Is there a better 3rd party backup package you can recommend?
