I've detested PCOMM for decades. User configuration never seemed friendly and, even with perseverance, didn't always cater to valid combinations. IND$FILE was like using a screwdriver to bang in a nail. Then there was the XMIT hoop to jump through. The best I've ever been able to use to

Personal Communications and Host On-Demand both support GDDM graphics, as a notable/important feature. I don't think there's anything else on Linux and Macintosh that supports GDDM except HOD.

What version of z/OS? When you use the RM command in SDSF what are the values for your JQE/JOES/TGS/BERTs/JNUM? How many Spool volumes do you have and what size (MOD9 MOD27...) How are your checkpoint datasets defined? Is CKPT1 on CF and CKPT2 on DASD? Or both dasd or both CF? If JES2 is

We have many MXG users who have moved their SAS Processing to Linux or Windows, where only a Workstation license may be needed, and there is no download of the SMF data file; the SAS ftp access method reads the z/OS data and only the output SAS datasets need disk space on the ASCII platform. And

I fear you may be in for a heavy lift! Converting SAS to Java is non trivial and if you have production jobs in the mix it's a risky business. How many programs do you need to convert? On 23/11/2017 7:30 PM, Munif Sadek wrote: Martin/Andrew SMF/CMF are least of our concern at the moment. We

The cheapest solution is x3270, because it's free. The fastest and smallest terminal emulator is Norwegian Nexus. The version I use takes less than diskette (approx 1,3 MB) and installs in 20-30 seconds. Windows only. -- Radoslaw Skorupka Lodz, Poland
