NZERO sets you to TCB key, which may not be the key the PSW was in at the time
of the ZERO.

No, why should it?  The only persistent key the system knows for you is 
the TCBKEY; the current key is in the PSW, saved in the RB, but there is 
no documented location for storing a key at MODESET time. If you wish to 
restore a specific key, you have to save it yourself - see the SAVEKEY 
operand.

Re: DFHUTILB and DFHUPROC

2013-05-27 Thread Ron hesketh
Hi Graham,
 DSNUPROC is aJCL procedure for executing DB2 utilities. DSNUTILB is
the DB2 utility program.
To create DB2 objetcts using DSNUTILB, you nees to use the EXEC SQL online
utility control statement.

To create your STOGROUP using DSNUPROC , your JCL woul;d be something
like :

//STEP1   EXEC DSNUPROC,SYSTEM=ssid,UID='',UTPROC=''   ssid is
your DB2 subsystem id.
//DSNUPROC.SYSPRINT DD  SYSOUT=(*)
//DSNUPROC.UTPRINT  DD  SYSOUT=(*)
//DSNUPROC.SYSINDD  *
EXEC SQL
CREATE STOGROUP CHELGRP
  VOLUME VPWRKD
  VCAT CHELCAT
ENDEXEC
/*

To do it using IKJEFT01, you need to use one of the  IBM sample programs to
process the DDL.the TSO DSN command cannot execute SQL.
Heres an example from the DB2 IVP job DSNTEJ1 :

//PH01S01 EXEC PGM=IKJEFT01,DYNAMNBR=20,COND=(4,LT)
//SYSTSPRT DD SYSOUT=*
//SYSTSIN  DD *
  DSN SYSTEM(ssid)
  RUN  PROGRAM(DSNTIAD) PLAN(DSNTIAD) -
   LIB('your.RUNLIB.LOAD')
//SYSPRINT DD SYSOUT=*
//SYSUDUMP DD SYSOUT=*
//SYSINDD *
 CREATE STOGROUP CHELGRP
  VOLUME VPWRKD
  VCAT CHELCAT
;
/*

 Ron

Seems DFHUPROC and DFHUTILB are options. Is one more common than the other?
Is it that the first calls the second (amongst others)?

List of uncataloged datasets

After the trace record for the STORAGE OBTAIN for the Storage

The crystal ball on channel 3 is broken. From z/OS MVS Programming:

   KEY=NZERO
   Specifies that the PSW key (bits 8-11) is to be either set to
zero

If the code switches among multiple keys, MODESET has no information

save and restore, but Scott is using the SVC form.

Re: Unable to mount ZFS

#1 - IIRC, the volume in the ICH408I message for a _VSAM_ data set is
the volume name that the _catalog_ is on in which the VSAM data set is
catalogued. Not the volume name of the volume upon which the VSAM data
set exists.

#2 - I don't know. Double check that that both OMVS and BPXOINIT are
running with the id of OMVSUSR1. Second, who or what is OMVSUSR2
supposed to be? The person doing the mount?

 course, OMVSUS2 is NOT trusted, so there would be a RACF error.)

 I just copied the data set(s) via adrdssu/terse/ftp/unterse/adrdssu from 
 another ADCD z/OS 1.13 system, where the thing also resided on an SMS-managed 
 volume. The RACF setup on both systems should be identical. Switching *this* 
 system to SMS is fairly recent, and as far as allocations go, everything is 
 located where I want it to be located. The 'old' system obviously has a 
 differing SMS setup.

 I have allocated (via ishell) ZFS SYS1.TESTZFS and put it on non-sms-managed

 An invalid dsname of blanks or invalid share_attr_array_length was specified. 
 Correct the argument and retry the request.
 Which also deosn't really tell me anything. No new ptfs in this area found,

 Does anyone have an idea what I did wrong? Or how to get OMVS to look in the

To do it using IKJEFT01, you need to use one of the  IBM sample programs to

2013-05-27 Thread Graham Hobbs

Hello Lizette,

Got all your pointers about:

- EXEC PROC, looking into SDSNLOAD, manual refs, installation step 10, etc

- doing stuff manually on TSO screens is a non-starter; my software 
kicks off by running a single JCL stream, generating and 'sub'bing new 
jobs along its way (including this STOGROUP creation), is totally 
automated, no hands on, have got 10 freebe days left on Dallas, after 
that it's $550/mnth, so little time to study even subsets of subjects 
(like DB2) when only a mini job like DSNUPROC is required - in 10 days I 
go away:'(


- am not averse to studying but having 40 yrs of app programming with no 
sysprog stuff, is why I really appreciate a 'canned' solution from 
people who've actually done these small but vital to me one-off 
functions; I get all of my answers from a) googling, b) this group, c) 
IBM as last resort - it works


- after writing the above (see my reply to Ron Heskell) - the DSNUPROC 
problem is solved; more important I have the soon to be tested feeling 
that I've learned a valuable tool for my little project


All this is much appreciated, so thanks kindly for the help!

Graham,

If you are DB2 V10 then you need to keep in line with IBM's direction of SMS
management.  I would look at the Share Presentation
http://www.bwdb2ug.org/PDF/SMS_is_Now_Mandatory_for_DB2_V10.pdf


Define the SMS environment for the DB2 catalog and directory data sets
(DSNTIJSS)

In DB2R Version 10, data sets that are defined for the DB2 catalog and
directory are managed by DB2 and must be SMS-managed.

Start of changeJob DSNTIJSS shows how to create a stand-alone SMS
environment for the DB2 catalog and directory data sets. Job DSNTIJSS is
designed for use on systems that do not already have a SMS environment, but
it can also be used as a reference for adapting an existing one. End of
change

Start of changeYou are not required to convert existing DB2 data sets to an
SMS environment before migrating to Version 10. These data sets can
indefinitely remain non-SMS-managed, but they will be converted to SMS
management when the related table space is reorganized.End of change

The SMS environment that you use for DB2 catalog and directory data sets
must be established before you begin migration to Version 10. The SMS
environment must include a data class for allocating the data sets in
extended format and using extended addressability. To define a data class
with this attribute, specify EXT in the DATA SET NAME TYPE field of the DATA
SET CLASS DEFINE panel of ISMF. Then, ensure that the automatic class
selection (ACS) routine associates the DB2 catalog and directory data sets
with this data class.

To create the stand-alone SMS environment for the DB2 catalog and directory:

 Customize job DSNTIJSS according to the directions in the job prolog.
 Run job DSNTIJSS.
 To activate the SMS environment, use this z/OS command, where scds-name
is the name of the SMS source control data set that was specified by
DSNTIJSS:

 SETSMS SCDS(scds-name)

 Attention: This command will deactivate any existing SMS environment
that is defined from another SCDS.
 Run the SMS CONVERTV tool with the TEST option to verify that all data
sets on target volumes can be placed under SMS management.

 Example of running CONVERTV with the TEST option:

 //CONVRTV EXEC PGM=ADRDSSU,REGION=5M
 //SYSPRINT DD SYSOUT=*
 //DD1  DD UNIT=SYSALLDA,VOL=SER=targvol1,DISP=OLD
 //DD2  DD UNIT=SYSALLDA,VOL=SER=targvol2,DISP=OLD
 //SYSINDD *
   CONVERTV DDNAME(DD1) SMS TEST CATALOG
   CONVERTV DDNAME(DD2) SMS TEST CATALOG
 /*

 When CONVERTV TEST reports that all data sets on the target volumes can
be placed under SMS management, run CONVERTV without the TEST option to
convert the data sets. If any data sets cannot be converted, do not run
CONVERTV without the TEST option. You must either create additional ACS
routines to manage these data sets or move them to different (non-SMS)
volumes.

Related tasks:
Premigration checklist for migration to DB2 Version 10 conversion mode from
Version 8
Premigration checklist for migration to DB2 Version 10 conversion mode from
Version 9.1

That is why the DB2 Newsgroup can be so helpful.  They focus on DB2 and can
keep you on the right track.  There are good SHARE presentations on how DB2
and SMS management are working together.

The meaning of the volume serial number shown in the VOL field varies. For a

VSAM data set, it means the volume on which the catalog containing the data set 
entry resides. 

The ZFS is a VSAM dataset.

2. OMVS address space is started with userid OMVSUS1 (which is trusted and is

http://publibz.boulder.ibm.com/cgi-bin/bookmgr_OS390/BOOKS/fcxd5aa0/1.2.1
It's the zFS started task that needs TRUSTED or OPERATIONS attribute or ALTER

Re: Renaming an LPAR dynamically

As you do not change all the other original LPAR attributes and
connections, those will remain intact after first becoming '*'.


2013/5/19 Skip Robinson jo.skip.robin...@sce.com

 As I mentioned a follow-on post, I eventually PORed to get the new IODF
 active with no change other than LPAR name. It's not clear from Carlos's
 post that the all the other original LPAR attributes and connections would
 remain intact after first becoming '*'. If not, POR (in my particular
 case) was less painful than having to redefine everything else from
 scratch.

 Activate the partition.

 Deactivate the LPAR
 then active new IODF with new Name
 Chek the CRYPTO PROCESSORs, activate the partiiton



 2013/5/10 Skip Robinson jo.skip.robin...@sce.com

  I've poked around and not found a concise explanation. We have an LPAR
  whose name needs to change. Everything else in the IODF is fine, just a
  name problem. Current hardware and software.
  I changed the name in HCD. When I tried to ACTIVATE the new IODF, it
  choked on the name mismatch. I gather that I can first rename to '*',
 then
  rename for real in two successive IODFs. If I do that, do I preserve all
  original chpid and device connections? I don't want to start over from
  scratch when only the name is wrong.

There is usually a APAR/PTF issued by IBM Fault Analyzer support that

The issue is nothing to do with z/OS itself so they do not care when other

Re: Unable to mount ZFS

2013-05-27 Thread nitz-...@gmx.net
 The meaning of the volume serial number shown in the VOL field varies. For a 
 non-VSAM data set, it means the volume on which the data set resides. For a 
 VSAM data set, it means the volume on which the catalog containing the data 
 set entry resides. 
I didn't know that before. It is quite misleading, in my opinion.

 It's the zFS started task that needs TRUSTED or OPERATIONS attribute or ALTER 
 authority.
Thanks for that link. It clearly states that ALTER is needed for the userid 
that runs ZFS (yes, OMVSUS2 is assigned to ZFS). It is also clearly not the 
whole truth. On my originating system, OMVSUS2 can mount all ZFSs just fine, 
and it does NOT have ALTER access to any of them; it doesn't even appear in the 
access list at all. This system is set up the same way, and it doesn't work 
here.

After giving ALTER access to OMVSUS2 it STILL does not work. Assuming that this 
is due to dataset profiles being cached, I restarted ZFS. After which ishell 
doesn't work anymore (some sort of spawn error). I mounted the ZFS via batch 
job, and now it is mounted, according to the diplay bpxoinit. So at least it 
doesn't have anything to do with my SMS changes. Load off.

 'sys1.testzfs' (lower case) does not exist.
True. It mounted without a problem once I used uppercase. The reason is 
probably that HLQ SYS1 (according to IBM ADCD's setup) is not protected by 
RACF, and I haven't been brave enough to attempt corrections on my own.

Did I mention I hate OMVS? This is the second time that something related to 
RACF/OMVS works on one system but not on another when the setup is identical. 
Or looks identical in all the obvious places. I also hate that things work when 
they clearly shouldn't, according to the documentation. That makes problem 
determination s much easier!

Thanks to all who took the time to respond to my plea for help!

Re: z/OS 1.13 ZAP for IBM Fault Analyzer

2013-05-27 Thread nitz-...@gmx.net
 IBM Fault Analyzer support on z/OS.
 Would anyone out there have obtained the ZAPs for the IEAVTABD version of the 
 module that came with the PTFs for OA38518? 
 
 I have searched under z/OS and under IBM Fault Analyzer and not found what is 
 needed.
 
 Yes, I know I may have to open a PMR but if anyone has obtained the ZAP 
 already it could be much quicker than a PMR.

So quite obviously IBM still hasn't gotten around to giving the FA folks an API 
or official 'hook' for their needs so that they can get rid of that ZAP. I 
talked about that to someone within IBM 2-3 years ago, and they wanted to fix 
it. 

Come to think of it - I will need that ZAP, too, once I get around to finally 
activating FA on our ADCD system. Anthony, could you please post it once you 
have it?
