IBM Migration Utility

2014-09-28 Thread גדי בן אבי
Hi,

We are in the process of integrating a customer into our payroll system.
They use CA-Easytrieve extensively, but we do not.

One option to install CA-Easytrieve, and another is to install the IBM 
Migration utility.

Does anyone have experience with using IBM Migration utility to replace 
CA-Easytrieve?
Is it a straight forwards migration, or do we have to make changes to the 
CA-Easytrieve sources?

To make matters more interesting, the new customer currently runs under VSE, 
while we use z/OS.

Thanks

Gadi

Hi Gadi

The converstion utility fully supports ezt. No need to manual intervention. You 
can also use interpeter like mode if you run the object code by the loader 
program.

 Gadi:

Good Sunday evening to you.  I work with the IBM Migration group in the U.S. 
and can tell you that there is no problem here.  We have experience in this 
type of migration.  If you have any questions, please let me know.

Regards,

JES2 symbol service in z/OS 2.1

2014-09-28 Thread Sam Golob

Hi Folks,

   We need a sample utility or sample code which sets up the new JES2 
symbol service on z/OS 2.1, in order to establish and manipulate a large 
quantity of symbols.  This installation runs their programs with many 
options, and we would like to set them up to use all the options 
conveniently.


   Any suggestions will be helpful.  But concrete examples or code 
samples would be best.


   Thanks much.

Only your shrink knows for sure. While it is certainly true that many
complaints about ISPF were ill founded, there have also been
legitimate complains, and failing to correctly translate spaces is
clearly not correct behavior.

No. I guess it hadn't occurred to me. Also, even now, the line editing is
just plain wrong. I think that I'll need a new approach,  not just reuse
IBM's. And I'm not that expert a C programmer.
If you are wondering why I am top posting, it is because I'm using my

I suppose it comes down to whom you trust in this matter:

Neither, but IANA is certainly more reliable than wiki. The IANA chart
shows, e.g., 

*CP  UCS   GCGIDSYNONYM   ISO 10646 NAME
 08   0097  ...GE... ..EPA...  (CC) End of Guarded Area

I doubt that was the cause of the FTP error,

Not given Bill's results.

My longer test case failed even with a trailing NL

Ouch!

FTP may be WAD; I'd say BAD.

Yes to the second, but no to the first.

Re: Dump Defaults (Was: SLIP IF Trap?)

2014-09-28 Thread Peter Relson
All of the LIKE options are well documented for IARV64. 

In the z/OS 2.1 books, SDUMPX's SDATA CSA and RGN options have this 
information (LSQA does not, and SQA's has an obvious type of mentioning 
DUMP=LIKECSA instead of DUMP=LIKESQA, and RGN's is incomplete in 
mentioning only SVCDUMPRGN=YES and not DUMP=LIKERGN). SDUMP's does not 
have the info. IEATDUMP's does not. 
Here's an example from SDUMPX's RGN:
Note: A 64-bit addressable memory object is RGN-dumpable if it is created 
with the IARV64 GetStor SVCDumpRGN=YES value. 

It seems that the obtainer of the storage should know under what 
circumstances it would get into SDUMP(X) -- since, in effect, that is 
within the doc for obtaining the storage -- but that the user of a DUMP 
command might not (thus the need to describe SDATA better for the dumping 
operations).

Are analogous additions to the SDATA descriptions (such as within 
SDUMP(X), IEATDUMP, DUMP command, CHNGDUMP) what you are looking for? If 
so, then we can certainly include that.

For the SLIP command, the SDATA keyword refers you to the CHNGDUMP command 
so there's no need to update the SLIP command's SDATA.

Are there others?

Here are a couple (more) useful links to stay up-to-date on IBM security
notices. First, the official IBM Support Portal:

http://www-947.ibm.com/support/entry/portal/support

IBM PSIRT also has a running blog on this issue:

To give some credit to my colleagues, IBM Security Network Intrusion
Prevention System (IPS) customers have enjoyed protection against
Shellshock since June, 2007, whenever IPS has been in the loop -- way,
way before this particular exploit was identified. You ought to check out
the good stuff they're rightly proud to offer.

IODF catalog issue

2014-09-28 Thread venkat kulkarni
Hello Group,
 By mistake somebody from our team run below Job, which
has cataloged SYS1.IODF11.WORK file into master catalog as user catalog.

//IMPCONET JOB 'VENKAT',CLASS=A,MSGCLASS=A,NOTIFY=SYSUID
//IMPORT EXEC PGM=IDCAMS
//SYSPRINT DD SYSOUT=*
//SYSIN  DD *
 IMPORT -
 CONNECT -
   OBJECTS((SYS1.IODF11.WORK -
   VOLUMES(WORK01) -
   DEVT(3390))) -
 CATALOG(SYS1.MASTER.CATALOG)

But, to isolate this issue, I run below Job to disconnect this
SYS1.IODF11.WORK file from
the master catalog.

//IMPDISCT JOB 'VENKAT',CLASS=A,MSGCLASS=A,NOTIFY=SYSUID
//STEP1 EXEC PGM=IDCAMS
//SYSPRINT DD SYSOUT=*
//SYSIN DD *
 EXPORT -
   SYS1.IODF11.WORK -
   DISCONNECT -
   CATALOG(SYS1.MASTER.CATALOG)

But I encountered below error

IDCAMS  SYSTEM SERVICES   TIME:

 EXPORT -
   SYS1.IODF11.WORK -
   DISCONNECT -
   CATALOG(SYS1.MASTER.CATALOG)
IDC3014I CATALOG ERROR
IDC3009I ** VSAM CATALOG RETURN CODE IS 10 - REASON CODE IS IGG0CLFK-14
IDC3003I FUNCTION TERMINATED. CONDITION CODE IS 12

IDC0002I IDCAMS PROCESSING COMPLETE. MAXIMUM CONDITION CODE WAS 12


I looked into RETURN code 10 and reason code 14

*14**Explanation:* On a disconnect request, the connector record was
missing or incorrect.


Any clue to resolve this issue.

Sorry for late reply, as I was out of office. Thanks for all help. Problem
has been resolved by following below parm.

DEFINE CLUSTER(NAME(SYS1.iodf.CLUSTER) -
  VOLUME(volser) -

  CAT(second.catalog)

Thanks once again.

 Again, and I cannot stress enough, this works IF AND ONLY IF the high
