Use of "trap" facility in z/OS?

2019-06-20 Thread John McKown
This is purely speculation, but I like what I've read about the "trap" facility. I think it is too bad that z/OS doesn't support the use of TRAP2, TRAP4, as well as the compare-and-trap and load-and-trap. I agree that they are not _necessary_ since the code can do basically the same thing. The

We were fortunate in that we implemented communication between our midrange and host through infrastructure. The midrange infrastructure detects the mobile request and flags the message. The host infrastructure records the flag in our performance data. By using the infrastructure we didn't

Larry, the answer is yes, a couple of customers of mine's did the job. Difficult ? Not so much this case. Only a different routing of traffic in order to "be sure" those IP's were from Mobile devices (CICS transactions fired by MQSeries or WebServices). Worthwhile ? It depends on the effort

The TRAP facility was originally implemented in the hardware for Y2K support. It was to be used by products to overlay clock related instructions so different clocks/dates could be simulated. At least that is what I was told many years ago. Chuck Arney > On Jun 20, 2019, at 4:41 PM, Chuck

The longest record was 222 THIS TIME. Given that they chose that specific DCB, you should be prepared for a different result at some future delivery. If you change your VB parameters to allow a (much) longer record, your job will process the current data with the same efficiency but will
