Question for COBOL users
Mr. Tom Ross, Yes, we use the OPTFILE compiler option in the PARM= parameter exclusively. Via JCL SET statements we establish the PDS and member name to use for the DD SYSOPTF file. This allows us to point to different members for different COBOL compile types (i.e. batch, CICS, test compiles, production compiles, CA-Intertest, different ISP vendors, etc.). Plus you still have the PROCESS statement inside each source if it deviates from the norm. It all seems to work quite well. And, it is a lot easier to manage via PDS and member than on the PARM= parameter. -- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to lists...@listserv.ua.edu with the message: INFO IBM-MAIN

COBOL's NUMPROC compiler option
Mr. Ross, Is there going to be a corresponding PACKCHECK compiler option? It is very difficult to locate all of the assembler code that took liberty in fixing positive pack decimal fields with a sign of F instead of determining if the result field was signed or not. After all everybody would use a hardware internal decimal instruction (AP, CP, DP, MP, SP, and ZAP etc.) to access/process a pack decimal field! Who would have ever guessed that one of the future compilers would be smart enough to make a determination/assumption that you could just use a compare logical character instruction (CLC) to determine equality between two pack decimal fields? Or, should we just take the performance hit and use NUMPROC(NOPFD) for the life of COBOL? Maybe we could petition for the reinstatement of NUMPROC(MIG). I guess we are all wondering just how much anguish NUMPROC(MIG) is causing IBM? Because, it appears to be very beneficial to some of us and less overhead than NUMPROC(NOPFD). If I remember correctly NUMPROC(MIG) only fixed signs on input and NUMPROC(NOPFD) does additional sign fixing.

Sharing ZFS file b/w two systems [not sysplex]
hi, There are two different systems LPARs on the same box and volumes can be made online on both sides. I have a ZFS file on System1 on VOLUM1 cataloged in master cat and it belong there. I need the same ZFS file on SYStem 2 temporarily to apply some maintenance (SMPE). What would be the best way to do this?

COBOL Parser
Dear all I would like to tune some IF THEN ELSE statements by changing operands positions of OR AND statements in some of my COBOL II v3.4 programs. Can we say that if always VAR1 assigned to VALUE1 the following statement (VAR1 EQUAL 'VALUE1') OR (VAR2 EQUAL 'VALUE2) has better performance than (VAR2 EQUAL 'VALUE2) OR (VAR1 EQUAL 'VALUE1') ? In a similar way, can we say that if always VAR1 is not equal to VALUE1 the following statement (VAR2 EQUAL 'VALUE2) AND (VAR1 EQUAL 'VALUE1') has better performance than (VAR1 EQUAL 'VALUE1') AND (VAR2 EQUAL 'VALUE2) ?

Re: Longer SMFWAIT during IPL MSI
Thanks Bob for sharing the REDBOOK details it is of good help to understand the process. We are recording 19 in all LPARs. I think storage team uses it for their reporting using 20% or something, im not sure. My actual question still stands when i compare PROD and DEV SMFPRMxx then only diff i see is the SMF EXIT IEFU84. Is this exit heavy by itself or by poor coding ? is this affecting performance POST IPL as this EXIT takes control before each SMF Write. I need to raise a CHANGE if i want to remove it and test. So I was expecting to get a feedback from the LIST whether it worth a try. I have to give some justification in the CHANGE to request the removal.
