  Assuming that the universe of discourse here is MVS
*as supplied by IBM*, DAS support was introduced in 
MVS SP1.2 JBB1226, and was never rolled back to anything 
lower.  SP1.2 never GAed, so unless you were an SP1.2 ESP
customer, DAS support was introduced in SP1.3 JBB1326.

  As far as I know, MVS always used only 4K pages in DAT.  My 
evidence is that the oldest MVS  IEAVNIP0 source that I can find 
unconditionally uses 4K pages in DAT.  What is your evidence?

  The hardware storage keys were still on a 2K basis, so 
two SSKs were done for each 4K page, until the >16MB of
real storage support was added to the 3033.  That introduced 
the ISKE and SSKE instructions, which required only on SSKE
for a 4K page.  The MVS SP1.3 JBB1326 version of IEAVNIP0
tried an SSKE, and if it didn't program check, assumed that
the machine had the new instructions and DAT support for
>16MB of real stroage.

And that's better than the obvious MVC of 'JESSE' because?

Because with MVCIN 'JESSE' does not appear in the literal pool and make it 
masquerade as the control block?

I find it hard to accept that this method's obscurity would be outweighed by 
its usefulness. Looks to me like a convoluted solution in search of a problem.

I believe in eschewing obfuscation, especially in assembler code.

What does this mean, "a single virtual address space"? VM ran fine on it, with

What CPU's were involved with each level, and what was the real

changes to the page size and virtual storage tables that caused havoc.

Re: Architectural Level Sets

2020-09-01 Thread Seymour J Metz
Well, a S/360 program that depends on getting PIC 06 for an unaligned load 
won't work correctly on a 360/85 or S/370. S/370 supported 2 KiB pages, and 
those are history. MVS/370 uses SIO, whch only exists in S/370 mode: also 
history. So carrying an old OS forward has always has issues. Sure, IBM could 
ensure absolute compatibiity for old releaes, but TANSTAAFL. Only IBM knows 
what the extra cost would be, but I guaranty that there would be an extra cost.

I'm sure that this has been discussed at Share.

Re: Architectural Level Sets

2020-09-01 Thread Seymour J Metz
MVS didn't use 2KiB pages, so I never paid any attention to whether the 4341 or 
3081 had them, but MVS/XA required DAS. Access registers came later, on the 
3090, and were part of ESA.

The 4341 most definitely was not limited to a single address space; It ran 
MVS/SP 1.3 just fine.

What does this mean, "a single virtual address space"? VM ran fine on it, with 
many virtual address spaces. Are you perhaps thinking of V=R/V=F? I disremember 
whether 43xx supported those.

Ron,

If you looked up the Joinkeys description for FIELDS in the DFSORT
Application programming guide you would have found this

The keys will be treated as binary, so they must be "normalized". For
example, if the keys are actually zoned decimal, they must have all C and D
signs, or all F and D signs. You can use an INREC statement in JNF1CNTL
and/or JNF2CNTL to normalize the keys for the F1 file and/or F2 file,
respectively, if appropriate.

Here is the link to that piece of documentation.

https://www.ibm.com/support/knowledgecenter/SSLTBW_2.3.0/com.ibm.zos.v2r3.icea100/ice2ca_JOINKEYS_statements.htm

So convert your Unsigned Free Format (UFF) to Binary format using INREC and
put it at the end of the record (F1 at position 3422 and F2 at position 40)
using JNF1CNTL and JNF2CNTL statements respectively). Then adjust the
positions on the FIELDS statement to point to the new Binary fields.

Coming to the control cards, if you are interested ONLY in the matched
record, why bother about unmatched records from F1 and F2 ?  By default
DFSORT JOINKEYS would always write out only MATCHED records unless you have
a JOIN statement.

Maybe you could just also just supply the jar files so a full install

Re: setting up CSSMTP to use TLS-SSL

2020-09-01 Thread Peter Vander Woude
Brian,

I do use AT-TLS with CSSMTP to our internal e-mail relay.  For the keyring, you 
need to add the CA's that have signed the ssl cert for the server.

If the e-mail server is using a self-signed certificate, you need them to send 
a copy of it (only the public portion) and it has to be added as a certificate 
authority.

We have ours setup to use TLS from CSSMTP to an internal Proofpoint mail

Re: setting up CSSMTP to use TLS-SSL

I think the most common approach is to have CSSMTP send the mail to an 
enterprise (internal) mail server and let it take care of security going 
out to the internet.

I sincerely hope that one's existence and status isn't based on being a 
twit-wit. 

Only an iron-clad contract guaranteeing large sums of hard, spendable currency 
on a regular schedule would entice me to join such an anti-social "social 
network".

I suspect if you install Tomcat  9.0.37 and copy the zos-*.jars from 
Dovetails tomcat it will work.

We wanted to look into your Tomcat request from Thursday before responding.
We do offer a z/OS distribution of Tomcat free without support, so sometimes 
other things take precedence.
To confirm: Tomcat 8.5.6 is the last z/OS integration build that we currently 
offer.

  We are admittedly behind, but I only see TOMCAT 8.5.6 on Dovetails
site, and our security folks have identified a security
vulnerability(WebSocket DoS CVE-2020-13935) in all releases older than 9.0.37.

JES2 £DPATH Output Misleading

2020-09-01 Thread Andrew Metcalfe
Morning Listers
 
I am implementing a new NJE topology which involves multiple hops through 
store-and-forward nodes to the final destination - NODEA to NODEB to NODEC to 
NODED.
 
I have existing direct connectivity between NODEA and NODED which I am looking 
to replace with the longer route (the reasons for which are not up for debate).
 
On NJEDEF I have RESTMODE=100,RESTMAX=800 for all participating systems. I 
think I only need RESTMAX=600.
 
My query is around the £DPATH command, or rather its output.
 
From NODEA
 
£DPATH(NODEB),LONG shows a connection with resistance of 200.
£DPATH(NODEC),LONG shows a connection with resistance of 400.
 
Similar commands on NODEB/NODEC show that there is connectivity with the 
expected resistance.
 
For £DPATH(NODED),LONG I only see the direct path with resistance of 200 and 
not the long route with a resistance of 600.
 
I was expecting to see the long route also shown in the output of £DPATH but I 
can't determine from the manual whether that is a reasonable expectation.
 
Anyone had any experience in this area? 
Any IBM JES2 folks listening?
 
Thanks
 
Andrew Metcalfe
