Re: Logstreams

Long ago (2005) we had one of the largest generators of SMF data on record and continued to use MAN datasets using a couple of techniques to carry the load. Environment: four CECS, all in the same SYSPLEX. four on UK time, ten on US time. Extensive use of CICSPLEX and transaction routine

You might consider splitting the data into multiple logstreams. Michael At 12:41 PM 8/2/2022, Steve Beaver wrote: Has anyone ever created a LOGSTREAM on an M54 of 65000 cylinders. I have a very, very busy CICS and DB2 on the same LPAR Thanks

Re: [EXTERNAL] I knew Cobol 6.3 takes more resources to compile than 4.2 but should I be concerned about how much?

Hi list, I got a resolution for this compile-time issue yesterday and installed it on my sandbox this morning. PTF UI81630 (the July accum maintenance) has the fix in it. After installing the fix, the 3 INITCHECK options perform in essentially the same amount of resources. TCB time for the

Thank you all for your input. Unfortunately I do not have FDR on this system. That would be a very good option (my problem is with files that have enqueues from active STCs, such as a few CICS address spaces. And the next programmed IPL is still a long way away... And this is a model 27 that on

For sure, CP-67 (and before that even, CP-40) is a direct ancestor of z/VM. It was an IBM Research project and IBM only made it available to a small set of key customers. We celebrate today as VM's anniversary because that's when IBM announced VM/370 as an official supported product that anyone

EasyTrieve is both interpreted and compiled. Not entirely sure of the internals ("compiled" may only be "store the interpretable code in an executable" like compiled Rexx), but EasyTrieve programs can be run as source or compiled to an executable program. Peter -Original Message-

Re: REXX Testing a bit?

If you will be doing many of these kinds of tests, you can create a simple proc to tell you if the bit is on: BitOn: If Arg(2) > Length(Arg(1)) * 8 Then Return 9; tval = Overlay('1',X2B(C2X(Copies('00'x,Length(Arg(1),Arg(2),1); tval = X2C(B2X(tval)); Return
