Re: VISARA Consoles FICON Get 505, 510
Ed Jaffe remarks: It's been three years since the IBM's July 2010 SOD first warned that z196/z114 would be the last generation to offer ESCON channels. For the record, IBM announcement letter 109-230, issued on April 28, 2009, contained the following statement: ESCON® channels will be phased out. It is IBM's intent for ESCON channels to be phased out. The first sentence was helpfully bolded. IBM then progressively phased out ESCON. The z10 EC/BC models were the last servers to support more than 240 directly attached ESCON channels. The z196/z114 were the last servers to support direct ESCON connections in any number. I think there are about three suggested solutions for the original poster so far. In no particular order: 1. Use the Optica converter and take the ESCON Director(s) out of the loop. 2. Connect the tape library silo via Ethernet (TCP/IP), which the library vendor evidently supports. 3. Use CHPID type OSC (OSA-ICC) via an OSA-Express 1000BASE-T adapter and connect via that path. OSC is supported on the very latest OSA-Express5S 1000BASE-T and prior adapters. Any other suggestions and/or discussions about these options?

Re: Migrate sysplex root from HFS to zFS
Hello: Last Saturday we migrated our HFS sysplex root to zFS.

It' canceled with sysplex root in use. When we executed the utility in mode CLIST in ISPF worked fine. 3 .- Does ISPBTCH execute this populate function? -- Yes. In ISPF mode.

Re: PSO Dataspace of JES2

Re: PSO Dataspace of JES2
The OP seems to be under the impression that adding an foreign ASID STOKEN to the home PASN-AL will magically grant access to all spaces on the foreign ASID's PASN-AL. Using the STOKEN for JES2AUX address space and adding it to the OP's job PASN-AL using CHKEAX=NO will not grant access to the PSO dataspace. All it will achieve is (unsupported) access to the JES2AUX private storage as long as the JES2AUX address space is non-swapable or the storage in swapped in. This technique should be discouraged - using an SRB is the least-worst solution. Rob Scott Lead Developer Rocket Software 77 Fourth Avenue . Suite 100 . Waltham . MA 02451-1468 .

Re: RMM CDS utilization vs 3.4 utilization
Mike, I really appreciate your response. I am someone that was asked to oversee RMM and am not completely familiar with the workings of RMM and with that said I would like to see an example supplied and discussed in the I C manual under the chapter titled Monitoring the Space Used by the Control Data Set to run jcl like the one supplied in the Moving the Control Data Set that uses the Backup(DSS) example to copy the cds to a new cds. Your example could include a Backup(DSS) step and a then a step to RENAMEU the old cds to a new cds name then discuss the HURBA/HARBA * 100 calculation to show the programmer the percentage of free space actually inside the working cds. We do not regularly reorganize our CDS but we are I the process of moving it and found out that we are only using 25% of 41000 tracks (in 5 extents) in our working CDS. That is a lot of wasted space that I did not find out about until I HAD to move our CDS. This will all be a moot point once we turn on CA RECLAIM. Sorry for the rant.

They were written based on lots of experience with many different installation. The CDS utilization is simply HURBA/HARBA * 100 It makes no account for empty space in CIs or CAs, nor for the potential to grow the CDS into multiple extents. To determine really what space is actually used, you could define a VSAM KSDS like the CDS and repro the records from the CDS to the new KSDS and see what the HURBA/HARBA is then. VSAM is now very good at reusing empty space within already used CAs and CIs (CAs with R12+).

Re: Establishing and using Unix file system and USS under z/OS
Because the for statement parameters initialize c to 1, there is actually
no way for c to ever be 0 at that point. c is not an argument to the
program, it is just a local variable.
Of course, a good optimizer will eliminate the superfluous test as always
true and generate no code for it.
If someone invokes the program (from wherever) with no arguments, argc will
be zero and the for loop will not execute at all, so the if statement will
never be executed in that case.
