Re: Identify EAV volume

If you have PDS(File182 on CBT) EAV support is included in LISTV Update 8.6.14.4: EAV support for PDSE data sets allocated in the cylinder-managed space. This mod thanks to John Hamlet from SAS.

TS7760 Questions (Was: 7760)

In reply to original question #3, look for the "copy export" function in IBM's TS7760 documentation. You can also continue using whatever tape file generation approaches you wish, if you wish -- for example, the AWSTAPE Utilities from CBT Tape. The TS7760 is a virtual tape library, so anything

The same manual used to have an example subprogram named BPXTTOD that did a time conversion in the opposite direction. When it stopped working at the same date (January 10 2004 13:37:04, correcting a typo in my previous post) the example was just dropped entirely from the manual starting with

Re: Curious about IBM time conversion example program

Bill's suggestion is a vast improvement. But I can't understand why IBM publishes examples that seem to be written (by a student) for System/360. Not to mention that actually dividing by 2 was naive even then. Convert the code to use this new thing, 64-bit registers, and you'll need half the

Re: What to do with PTF dogies?

I put them all on unless they are PE. I don't agree with the picking and choosing that RSU does and if I get hit in production by some old PTF that was not in an RSU for whatever reason my management is going to be very unhappy. Been there before and don't want to repeat. The other issue is

What to do with PTF dogies?

It's SOP here to install PTFs by RSU id. SMPE LIST NOAPPLY shows a fair number of PTFs that have languished for quite some because they have never been assigned to RSU. They usually have a PUT id, but we don't ever specify PUTyymm. What do other shops do with these dogies? Scoop them up after

Hi, We’re being offered a TS7760, and I have some questions: 1.Can the machine be partitioned to serve two separate, unconnected systems? How flexible is the partition? Must it be fixed when the system is configured, or can I change it later? 2.Are any additional operating system

What problem are you trying to solve? most shops use a stand set of definitions for dasd which comes with specific setting for size of volume. So if you see it is a 3390 Mod3 you know it will be 3339 cylinders. Though you could make it different, this is what most will recognize as how many
