Re: [SPAM] Hmc for z as a virtual appliance?

2019-02-01 Thread Costin Enache
Having explored the topic in the past, I believe you need to talk to IBM. The 
platform and code for the HMC and SE systems is under tight control and nobody 
but IBM can provide you with access to the thing. IBM customers are not allowed 
to do that. And event if/when you get the thing, it will not be virtual and you 
will not be allowed to access the O/S as "root" (used to be OS/2, now it is 
Linux), but as a limited application user. Please share your experience if you 
get anywhere with IBM on this topic.

No, zPDT *is* a mainframe. It implements a permitted subset of the
architecture documented in the Principles of Operation.

The HMC is not described in the Principles of Operation. It replaces
the knobs, lights, and switches that provided the operator interface
on older systems. Some of the *functions* performed by the HMC are
architected (and are implemented by zPDT without an HMC), but none of
how it works or what the interface looks like. Here is the only
description of anything like an HMC in the POO:

"Operator Facilities
The operator facilities provide the functions necessary for operator
control of the machine. Associated with the operator facilities may be
an operator-console device, which may also be used as an I/O device
for communicating with the program.

The main functions provided by the operator facilities include
resetting, clearing, initial program loading, start, stop, alter, and
display."

And later:

"The operator facilities may be implemented on different models in
various technologies and configurations. On some models, more than one
set of physical representations of some keys, controls, and indicators
may be provided, such as on multiple local or remote operating
stations, which may be effective concurrently. "

All subsequent description of these functions refer to "keys", e.g.
the load key, the start and stop keys, and so on, just as in the S/360
POO in 1964.

To the OP's plans... I think doing penetration testing on a box with
no available architectural doc at all, and extremely limited external
doc, might be useful, but how will you even know if it's misbehaving
if there are no specs? Sure, maybe you can force a buffer overrun or
something in the web interface, take over the box (Linux?), and then
what? I don't see that it has any close relation to IBM's mainframe
OSs and their security issues.

This guy was not necessarily wise.
It's rare to have completely isolated, fixed systems with no changes, including 
software.
Having unsupported system and changing hardware is dead end. At some time you 
HAVE TO apply some servicve because you changed DASD, because you have to 
migrate from SSLv3 to TLS, because you have to switch from native SNA to 
Enterprise Extender, etc. etc.
In IT world changes are consstant, so there are no "fixed state" of IT systems 
(with very few exceptions).
So you have to apply *some* service. Usually it's much simpler when you apply 
preventive service and upgrade to new versions. Otherwise you have problems 
like how to migrate from unsupported OS on unsupported CPC to current OS/CPC.

At first I thought maybe the referent was me. Wise? Debatable. Older? Remotely 
possible. But I searched my closet in vain for a 'denim newsie'. I guess that 
could signify my road apple hat. 

Anyway those who've heard me say 'always broke' know that I mean nothing 
derogatory. Quite the contrary. IBM gives us a window into 'problems' like few 
other vendors. Whether an open APAR or one whose fixing PTF is not yet 
installed, we have a pretty transparent view into the inevitable brokenness of 
the OS at any given time. That is to our everlasting benefit. OTOH we cannot 
rightfully claim the peaceful slumber of the clueless. ;-)

Re: SYSAFF and SCHENV

2019-02-01 Thread Jesse 1 Robinson
As I mentioned previously, we devised a set of JES2 exit routines that process 
JECL cards (/*SCHENV ...) to create the required 16 byte SCHENV card. The user 
can code that directly if desired; otherwise we build it from JECL. 

The only value we insert directly on the user's behalf is 'TAPE'. 20 years ago 
our VTS system required fairly frequent and lengthy upgrade windows. During 
those windows, we didn’t want 'tape jobs' to execute. We *already* had JES2 
exit code to scan for tape-resident data sets, so it was easy to add an SCHENV 
indicator. With SCHENV/TAPE turned off in WLM, such jobs would simply wait 
until tape was back in operation. This simplified life for Operations.

Other SCHENV values are up to the users. We don’t try to guess what they need.

Sorry Kees, I got a bit off track, the outsourcer I worked at used a number of 
JES2 exits to add SCHENV dependant on the specific client, it was pretty cool 
because all batch, unless your ID was entered into a table, ran via the 
scheduler, the schedulers resources + SCHENV and WLM resources managed all 
batch controls. at the transportation company I worked at the users with the 
direction of operations/production control added the required SCHENV

Allen, Carmen, 

I know how SCHENVs work, we used them for limited purposes. 
My question to Paul was, how does he get the right SCHENV added to a job. 

With our 'dependencies' we moved almost all handling to Exit60, require users 
to use standard PROCs and put the info for the 'dependencies' in the PROCs. 
Exit60 will then see all job requirements and compose the dependencies-set, 
like Paul does to determine the SCHENV. 

The purpose of my question was to find out which other smart techniques were 
available. Apparently none since the last 30 years.

I confess that my advice was based on (geologically) ancient experience. I 
don't remember what macro I was using, but I truly hit the problem I alluded 
to. Illustrates the down-side of 'experience'. The longer you've done 
something, the less likely you are to haul out the manual (physically or 
virtually) when doing it yet again. 

I once assigned an MVS task to a long-time VM sysprog. He found a great 
solution because--with no knowledge of RACF--he was forced to search the doc. 
He discovered a feature none of the MVS sysprogs were aware of. Didn't hurt 
that he was really smart.  ;-)

and not focusing on those last five words. I just read MAX as meaning "sure,

As a general rule for LIST/EXECUTE form macros, avoid coding anything else on 
the execute call except for E. The reason is that the LIST call determines what 
data needs to be included in the generated code 

Not for macros written in the base control program (and elsewhere) in the past 
30 years. For most of them, nothing can be specified on the list form, aside 
from PLISTVER. And for all macros, any parameter that has other than a static 
value must be specified on the execute form.


Eschew MF=(E,...,COMPLETE) ? 


Of course not. COMPLETE is the default and is the only thing accepted unless 
the macro documents that it supports the "M" form.


Something that resolved to "I don't support parmlist version > 2, and you gave 
me a 3."


You should know what you "gave", as it is perfectly visible in the expansion. 
And the reason code says exactly that aside from what is the maximum you do 
support, which is not important to know.

Both "bad version" and "reserved field not 0" are typical of asking for "new 
function" via a "new release" level of the macro and running on "old release".
I hope everyone understands that they must avoid doing that. Charles fell into 
the subtle case that specifying PLISTVER=MAX in effect is saying "I am using 
new function".

searching for CP-67/CMS and TSS/360 software distribution tapes

2019-02-01 Thread Mark Waterbury
Hello, IBM mainframers!

I am currently working with some folks who are building a new IBM System/360 
simulator using SIMH for historical software preservation purposes.  The plan 
includes supporting the unique features of the model 67.
We are looking for machine readable copies of IBM's CP-67/CMS, preferably 
either the original IBM software distribution tapes or a back-up of a full 
system. Absent those materials, if anyone has the source code for CP-67, esp. 
for "CP" on microfiche or other formats, that could also be useful to recreate 
this system. 

Same story for TSS/360 ... I know there are copies of TSS/370 available, but we 
are hoping to find a version that ran on the 360 model 67.
(We are already in touch with Mike Alexander about versions of MTS that ran on 
the model 67.)

Thanks in advance for any leads, suggestions, etc., in this effort.
All the best,
Mark S. Waterbury

Re: [SPAM] Hmc for z as a virtual appliance?

2019-02-01 Thread ITschak Mugzach
No. The ussue ia clearly HMC. I just explained why we do not have one
(zPDT) and why we need one (develpment of automatic STIG assussment of
HMC).
I don't need my own one. It can be other people hmc (and no need to be
connected to a real mainframe. Autonatic Assessment of mainframes we
already do.).

So, where can i find an up-to-date HMC, hosted, my own or even of yours...

Re: [SPAM] Hmc for z as a virtual appliance?

2019-02-01 Thread R.S.
IMHO the topic is HMC for zPDT. Unfortunately zPDT does not have HMC in 
any form, real or emulated.

It's not mainframe, it's only emulation.

I plead guilty. I fell into the trap of reading

and not focusing on those last five words. I just read MAX as meaning "sure,
it's all in a dynamic area sized with equates and so forth, just make it as
big as you like." I understand it now.

As a general rule for LIST/EXECUTE form macros, avoid coding anything else 
on the execute call except for E. The reason is that the LIST call 
determines what data needs to be included in the generated code 


Not for macros written in the base control program (and elsewhere) in the 
past 30 years. For most of them, nothing can be specified on the list 
form, aside from PLISTVER. And for all macros, any parameter that has 
other than a static value must be specified on the execute form.


Eschew MF=(E,...,COMPLETE) ? 


Of course not. COMPLETE is the default and is the only thing accepted 
unless the macro documents that it supports the "M" form.


Something that resolved to "I don't support parmlist version > 2,
and you gave me a 3."


You should know what you "gave", as it is perfectly visible in the 
expansion. And the reason code says exactly that aside from what is the 
maximum you do support, which is not important to know.

Both "bad version" and "reserved field not 0" are typical of asking for 
"new function" via a "new release" level of the macro and running on "old 
release".
I hope everyone understands that they must avoid doing that. Charles fell 
into the subtle case that specifying PLISTVER=MAX in effect is saying "I 
am using new function".

Re: How can I get reports in the Output Queue in SDSF to print

2019-02-01 Thread Lizette Koehler
How do you want to do that?

1)  Is the SYSOUT still on the JES2 Spool?

2)  Has the SYSOUT been purged from the JES2 Spool?

3)  Do you need an automated process?

4)  Do you need a manual process?

5)  What level of z/OS are you running?


You can 

1) Purchase a sysout management product - SARS, $AVERS, CMOD, etc

2) you can send your SYSOUT to a dataset and then reprint as needed during the
job run

3) You can use XDC on SYSOUT in JES Spool and send to a dataset, then use
something like IEBGENER to print the dataset.


Can you provide more details so better answer can be provided?

Disagree.

Obviously place as much as possible in the LIST form, but if it is not
repeated that much you can use COMPLETE without worries.

Using PLISTVER=MAX on the MF=E declares that the running system is at least
the level of the system that compiled. Never a good idea for a vendor. Use the
keywords that you need and let the macro figure out the version required.

What do you need?
Do you have mainframe without HMC?
AFAIK it is possible only when mainframe bought from second hand, 
because IBM always deliver HMC.

However in that case you can buy HMC, from second hand or IBM.
Note, HMC is not required for the machine to work.

Re: How can I get reports in the Output Queue in SDSF to print

2019-02-01 Thread Vince Getgood
Ron,
If they are in the output queue, then they probably haven't been printed.  

Do you want to keep a copy on the output queue?  

If not, just change the class and destination to one that a printer processes.

If you want the output copy left, you could do something like XDC it to a flat 
file, and then IEBGENER it to a class and destination that a printer processes.

Re: Tape Mount Management

2019-02-01 Thread Vernooij, Kees (ITOP NM) - KLM
I like tape too, especially since we introduced a VTS its connections were 
initially 'faster' than disk, which could only catch up with new disk systems.
After the tape-to-disk migrations of decades ago, I started disk-to-tape 
migrations again to gain disk space. Sadly there were not many candidates 
(Large, sequential, single open).

Re: Tape Mount Management

2019-02-01 Thread Brian Fraser
I still like tape.

No B37 abends. No waiting for recalls from HSM and reduces the need for HSM
recycling.

As long as only 1 open is required at a time and no one needs to
browse/edit the dataset, I don't see any reason to store large sequential
datasets on DASD.

CA-1 reporting and ISPF panels give a lot of easily access to information,
without the need to scan through tons of SMS data to get the same for DASD
data.
