Re: Health Check JES_NJE_SECURITY

Some of our nodes are connected via store-and-forward, so I don't think we can specify DIRECT=YES without also changing topology. Similar concern for SUBNET, which is not currently defined. All nodes belong to us and are managed by the same group of folks. That means that a userid on one node

Re: Health Check JES_NJE_SECURITY

Hi David, The problem with that approach is that checks against the profile will also be made for NJE jobs that are not local to the RACF database. The purpose of the profile is to allow JES/RACF to make a decision as to whether the submitter is a local user. Lou -- Artificial Intelligence is

Is is possible to add the profile (with possibly a dummy MEMBER subentry) as WARNING to the RACFVARS Class? Then monitor for the Temporary Access Allowed condition and use that information to build your ADDMEMs to the profile over time?

Re: Hardware upgrade z13 to z14....Yikes

Hi Jesse, From what I understand the current plan to be as of typing of this response, the plan is to merge/move the lpars from the z13's to the z14. There is no plan to collapse lpars into smaller number of lpars so no need to break out the abacus and slide rules to figure out workloads

Re: Hardware upgrade z13 to z14....Yikes

I'm not clear on the scope of 'merging'. If you are just moving LPARs wholesale from two CECs to one CEC, it should not be too complicated. In particular, if you're careful, there should be minimal impact on users. If you're consolidating LPARs, then you're in a whole new ballgame. That

The immediate goal is to enable a health check, but as Walt pointed out, the JES2 and/or RACF changes required may affect NJE processing in unintended ways. Yes we have NJE, but we're not prepared to take chances with current functionality until we learn more about possible consequences. For

Well we did 2 zEC12s to one z13 last summer. In our case we did not have to move all the lpars over in one weekend. Also both CECs had been in the same sysplex so no duplicate datasets, devices or other stuff. Our big issue was software contracts. The one zEC12 was small and we had to fight

Hi Chuck and list members, I would be interested in knowing once you figure out the cause. My upgrade is actually much more complicated that first presented. We are going from two z13's with about 6 lpars on each to one z14 so not only are we upgrading we are merging as well just to make

We recently did an upgrade to z14's and have seen some unexplained problems. It appears (unconfirmed as of yet, but should be soon) to be related to some CA products. We should have confirmation later today or tomorrow. Our upgrade was z12's to z14's and we are running z/OS 2.2. If I get
