Re: IBM splitting into two companies

Nope, IBM doesn't process 90% of credit card transactions. Most processors are on distributed, with a lot of HPE NonStop in the mix, but also other platforms. Some of the brands (AmEx, Visa) use a fair bit of mainframe hardware, but they're not processors. And some issuers use z/OS, but by no

Actually, Bill, it's pretty clear that you didn't read the report. It's at https://kinsta.com/blog/cloud-market-share/ and lists the top 5 vendors, comprising more than half the market, and then notes that the next ten players--of whom IBM is one--"account for another 26% of the SaaS market". So

I don’t mind having my pictures or music in the AWS or AZURE cloud. But, I don’t want my financial or health information there. IBM still processes 90% of the credit card transactions. Red Hat acquisition will keep them the go to cloud for highly sensitive information. It’s why banks, big

Well, if they are all near the max, half track blocking would result in 2 blocks of 2 records. A 32K block size would result in a block of 3 records, with space for another block of 2 records, but I'm not sure QSAM will do that. And 2.4GB is about 90% of a 3390-3. An average of 7000 or less

Re: LPSTAT Fails

I know you fully specified the path when you gave the lpstat command, but I wonder if that's enough. There are two versions of lpstat. One is just a stub. See https://www.ibm.com/support/knowledgecenter/SSLTBW_2.4.0/com.ibm.zos.v2r4.aopu000/lps.htm where it says: " /bin/lpstat is a stub command.

I don't understand why the solution is so complex. If the spaces all line up in fixed columns (I hope this assumption is correct), then simply coding OUTRECs for each field non-blank would accomplish the desired output. I've coded many hundreds of DF/SORT jobs and I don't see a degree of

Has anyone ported whatis and makewhatis to OMVS? Or is there a better way than using whatis? My issue is that the ‘man -k xxx’ searches the /usr/man/%L/whatis database and there is no available means to update that file since whatis and makewhatis are not available. Thus when adding utilities
