z/OS 2.2 install - racf question.
In the past when installing a new z/OS - I've always skipped the part that says to Create or Update ICHRDNST. Instead I have copied ICHRIN03 to the new SYS1.LPALIB I've since forgotten why I do this. So I did some research and found that I probably should have converted my ICHRIN03 to STARTED procedures. I found the sample to run and ended up with this output. SETR GENERIC(STARTED) *RDEFINE STARTED ** STDATA( USER(=MEMBER) GROUP(STCGRP) PRIVILEGED(NO) TRUSTED(NO) TRACE(YES) ) * SETROPTS CLASSACT(STARTED) RACLIST(STARTED) SETROPTS RACLIST(STARTED) REFRESH That RDEFINE does not look right to me.

Thank you. I noted in a listing of STARTED tasks I had ** with a user of IBMUSER. I updated it to be =MEMBER.

Re: z/OS 2.2 install - racf question.
Short Answer: Yes. From "z/OS Security Server RACF Command Language Reference" (both z/OS 1.13 & z/OS 2.02 versions) USER(=MEMBER) Specifies that the procedure name should be used as the user ID. If =MEMBER is specified for USER, a group-name value should be specified for the GROUP operand. If =MEMBER is specified for both USER and GROUP, a warning message is issued and problems might result when the profile is used. For information, see z/OS Security Server RACF System Programmer's Guide. And to further muddle things up: GROUP(=MEMBER) Specifies that the procedure name should be used as the group name. If =MEMBER is specified for GROUP, a userid value must be specified for the USER operand or RACF uses the started procedures table to assign an identity for this started task. If =MEMBER is specified for both USER and GROUP, a warning message is issued and problems might result when the profile is used. For information, see z/OS Security Server RACF System Programmer's Guide. Is an option on the RDEFINE command.

I do not see any problem with that. But I prefer to use an id, say STCUSR as user and its group, say STCGROUP. That id is RESTRICTED + PROTECTED + REVOKED and both id and group do not have any access to what ever profiles there are including no segments whatever. That is set up in both the member and STARTED class. This is simply to force my colleagues and clients to declare any new STCs to the RACF team, so their systems can be protected properly.

AW: Re: Subsys not down while Shutdown
> Thanks Lucas & Lizette. I have terminated the Task from list and performed > the Load. > Now is systems is up and running fine. Great. Now that this has been sorted out, you should invest some time to find out what ought to be brought down before an IPL what not. Automation (if you're using automation) should know and do what is necessary, but you should be prepared for the case when something does not work as intended. There are tasks (STCs) that you better try to stop in the proper way, or you might get into troubles at next startup (e.g. DB2 which might need some long lasting recovery). On the other hand, there are some tasks which you really don't need to care about, and there are tasks which cannot be stopped at all. The list is depending on your setup and the products you use. It is also useful to have a list of tasks to start, and in what order, in case you need to perform an IPL manually. Again automation may fail to complete the startup for whatever reason. -- Peter Hunkeler -- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to lists...@listserv.ua.edu with the message: INFO IBM-MAIN

Re: Subsys not down while Shutdown
Hi, Yes, you're right. One task is currently running,Task name- LOAD. I am trying to cancel the task from HMC Management / Users and Tasks. I'm just confirming that Once we cancel this Task, can we start performing the IPL or do we need to any pre-work to fix this issue .

Re: Subsys not down while Shutdown
I am not sure if you got your issue resolved, but here are some post questions 1) do you do your shutdown manually or with automation? a) has your shop documented how to shut-down all tasks manually? b) does your shop use a Proc to stop all tasks or a Clist or an automation tool (OPS/MVS, Tivoli, etc) 2) are you a Parallel sysplex, sysplex or monoplex? 3) Did you do a vary offline to take it out of a plex? 4) On your HMC did you chose the correct load or load/store function? 5) how often do you do the IPLs? If you are still waiting to IPL 1) What state is your IPL process in? Do you still have the message on the HMC? 2) did you go to the USERS and TASKS section of the HMC as the message suggests? What was there? 3) have you tried to terminate the load and try again? If you have an urgent issue, calling the vendor is sometimes faster than waiting on the list.

JES3 SDSF JESJCL
On z/OS 2.2 JES3, the JESJCL data set appears to be a concatenation of the content of JESJCLIN and JESJCL as they appear on a JES2 system. Do others observe this? Is this intended behavior? Is it desirable? I had intended to extract two JESJCLs (JES2 and JES3) and diff them to compare two jobs. The addition of JESJCL lowers the s/n ratio. -- gil -- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to lists...@listserv.ua.edu with the message: INFO IBM-MAIN
Re: AW: PL/I and optional parameters
LIST has been part of PL/I, and most high-level languages, since at least the 370...that's a far back as I go! You can use LIST to get an listing of the assembler generated by the PL/I statements in your module. You can also limit the output by using a LIST(n,m) where n and m are the line numbers in your program for which you want the assembler to be shown. These are the actual line numbers used by the compiler, not the editor line numbers. If you use LIST, you many not want to use OPTIMIZE, so you see the assembler in the same order as your code before the optimizer re-arranges it. -- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to lists...@listserv.ua.edu with the message: INFO IBM-MAIN
Re: Subsys not down while Shutdown
Once you cancel this task, you can perform the Load. I would perform a Reset Normal first, if you haven't done so.

Re: Java and .jar files on OMVS
Jack J. Woehr: >Wonder how much IBM has chipped in? :) Why wonder? You can examine OpenSSH itself to find at least some of IBM's contributions. For example, Kevin Cawlfield and Matt Richards, who both worked for IBM, are listed in the credits for their contributions (with IBM's support). As another example, there's an IBM copyright notice within OpenSSH reflecting IBM's donation of certain code to the open source community. OpenSSH relies quite heavily on OpenSSL, and Suresh Chari at IBM's T.J. Watson Research Center is listed as a code contributor there (as another example). Of course we should all be grateful that the brilliant cryptologist Horst Feistel and his brilliant colleagues at IBM invented modern commercial cryptography with the Data Encryption Standard (DES). DES's immediate "lengthened" successor, TDES, is still (at this writing) considered "reasonably" secure and is the cryptographic algorithm in use on all those EMV (chip) credit and debit cards most Americans received for the first time this year.
