DFDSS question

2019-01-08 Thread Pommier, Rex
Hi all, I'm looking at DFDSS dataset dump and see this parameter in the manual: NEWNAMEUnconditional which would allow me to rename datasets being backed up instead of needing to use the RENUNC on a restore. Unfortunately, the manual also states - and I verified by trying it - that I can't

I'm not sure why there is confusion. MVCP and MVCS deal with current primary and current secondary. When you have SASN=NEW on a space-switch PC, then the PC target gets control with both primary and secondary the same -- the new primary. MVCP and MVCS are no different functionally than MVCK in

Please re-read both my and Peter Relson's reply. If your caller has data in his space at address X and the existing PC-ss with SASN=OLD uses MVCP to copy the data from SASN address X to some address Y in the server ASID - then all is good. Same situation but SASN=NEW, then the MVCP will

Hi, Radoslaw. Do you mind if we take the discussion off IBM-MAIN for a bit? Or we can keep it here if you'd prefer, but I'd like to get more information about your environment. Based on your logs, it's taking a lot longer to initialize HiperDispatch than it should, and I'd like to understand

Jake, one of the things to look at is the IEF032I message from before the move if you have it and then after the move. You can get an overall look at how the memory was used/allocated. Going from a z114 to a z14 is a big jump in architecture related to how memory is used/allocated. IEF032I
