I got into this biz in the late 70s. The term CLIP was common parlance for
'label reformat'. I still have several canned JCL members with 'CLIP' in the
member name. If nothing else, the term is unique, while 'reformat' could have
any number of meanings.

Generic profiles had become a standard here years before we cloned the first
RACF data base. Went so far as to create a still existing usermod to the RACF
ISPF app that inserts 'Generic' on the main data set profile panels. One would
have to go out of the way to create a discrete profile. I saw

That looks definitive. And thanks for the reference work. My colleagues are
some very talented folks who are mostly relative newbies. I lose track of what
'everybody knows'.

I've heard/used the term CLIP as long as I've been in this business even though
it's not official technical terminology. I will happily go with Change Label In
Place. Thanks!

I don't see that term in the IEHDASDR documentation found here:

Robinson,
You probably may be quoting the VSE/VSAM User’s Guide and Application
Programming commands
CLIP LABEL=DISPLAY - Causes the volume serial number to be displayed on
the system console.
CLIP LABEL=SER=n..n - Causes the existing volume serial number to be
changed to the one specified as n.
Took me a moment to remember what CLIP was, but I do not know if it stood for
anything.
Maybe: "Change Label in Perpetuity?" :) [It's Friday, lighten up!]

One sort of obvious point. Before cloning your RACF data base make sure that
*all* data set profiles are generic. Convert any that are not.

Tony,
Another item to throw into the mix is what size of virtual-volumes you define
them as. With 3490's, you can define the virtual-volumes in Gigabytes of
capacity. If you stack lots of very small files, you run into a problem with
the Block-ID not being large enough. With them defined as 35
Hi Tony
Most of the time we define the drives on the Visara 5990A/L as 3490 and only
define them as 3590 if the customer has a "desire" to define 3490.
Bottom line is that it will not make a difference.

For a little fun on Friday afternoon.
We will be replacing our current VTL.
The new VTL can be configured to look like 3490s or 3590s. Our current
VTL is defined to z/OS as 3490s.
Some of the staff are saying: "All VTLs should be defined as 3490s
because that is what everybody does."

Since you have at least the RMF post processor reports available to you, the
CPU Activity report is a high-level place to start. In particular I would start
at the Partition Data Report section. Look for the total physical utilization
of the zIIP(s).
That's not the only place you may see an in
SMF30_TIME_zIIP_ON_CP is another indicator. Look at subtype 2 interval records
for long running tasks such as CICS and DB2 and at subtype 4 records for
regular jobs.
SMF30_TIME_zIIP_ON_CP is all the work that could be done on a z/IIP but
couldn't due to the ZIIP was busy with other work.
Also
I agree with zman; you need to get some performance expertise. If you have
slack time and management is willing to pay for training, that's a good option.
Otherwise they need to hire someone with performance and tuning expertice.
It's not rocket science, but you will need time to learn and overt

IIRC, you can look at zIIP-eligible time (CPUZIETM). If it is a high value, you
are not only losing the benefit of running on an additional uncapped specialty
processor, you are potentially wasting money if then running on a GP at a time
that drives the system to a new 4HRA on software costs!
