Todd,

In RACF, if the WRITER class is active, is the UACC set to READ for the profile 
protecting resource jesname.LOCAL.OFF2.ST, where 'jesname' is the name of your

Subject: Strange JES2 SPOOL Offload issue

I'm playing around with JES2 SPOOL OFFLOAD on our test system and I want to be 
able to try and offload everything from the spool to test out timing.  I have 
changed both of my transmitters to have DISP=KEEP to make the offload 
no-destructive.  

However, once I start the offload it does not select anything, and when I try 
and do $TOFF2.ST,WS=(/), JES2 just ignores this and keeps the same selection 
criteria I had before I did the command?   I have everything else pretty much 
blanked out for selection criteria, but for some reason JES2 ignores my $TOFF 
command to change the WS settings?  

Has anyone else every seen this just get ignored?  I don't see any automation 
grabbing this, nor do I see any RACF error messages.  The command just simply 
is being ignored by JES2?   

We are on z/OS 2.2 around RSU1802.  

Here's the $DOFF2.ST command output:

OFF2.ST  STATUS=INACTIVE,CREATOR=,DISP=KEEP,  
 OUTDISP=(WRITE,HOLD,KEEP),HOLD=, 
 JOBNAME=,NOTIFY=NO,RANGE=(J1,99),
 ROUTECDE=(),START=YES,VOLUME=(,,,),  
 WS=(OUTD,Q/),BURST=,FCB=,FLASH=, 
 FORMS=(,,,),LIMIT=(0,*),PLIM=(0, 
 *),PRMODE=(),QUEUE=,UCS=,WRITER= 

Here's the attempt at the $TOFF2.ST,WS=(/) command:

$TOFF2.ST,WS=(/) 
$HASP886 OFF2.ST 694 
$HASP886 OFF2.ST  STATUS=INACTIVE,CREATOR=,DISP=KEEP,
$HASP886  OUTDISP=(WRITE,HOLD,KEEP),HOLD=,   
$HASP886  JOBNAME=,NOTIFY=NO,RANGE=(J1,99),

$HASP886  FORMS=(,,,),LIMIT=(0,*),PLIM=(0,   
$HASP886  *),PRMODE=(),QUEUE=,UCS=,WRITER=   

Anyone have any ideas?  This one is puzzling to me?

Well Dana wins the prize - this was something I definitely did not know, but 
once I remove the criteria the offloads both started.   

This is why I love this forum!  Thanks for the help.

how about the dsn and volume definitions for OFFLOAD2 ? 
unit valid? dsn valid? 
what do you see in the log when you start the offload? anything?

Unless I missed something, I believe you're selecting WS=(OUTD,Q/) but your 
QUEUE= is empty (nothing right of =)?

Perhaps, you can give QUEUE=* ?

Or consider other selection criterias in WS?

I agree Offloads are sometimes puzzling and it is years ago I was responsible 
for major offload and reload of JES2 spool data.

Good luck!

Strange JES2 SPOOL Offload issue

2018-09-13 Thread Todd Burrell
I'm playing around with JES2 SPOOL OFFLOAD on our test system and I want to be 
able to try and offload everything from the spool to test out timing.  I have 
changed both of my transmitters to have DISP=KEEP to make the offload 
no-destructive.  

However, once I start the offload it does not select anything, and when I try 
and do $TOFF2.ST,WS=(/), JES2 just ignores this and keeps the same selection 
criteria I had before I did the command?   I have everything else pretty much 
blanked out for selection criteria, but for some reason JES2 ignores my $TOFF 
command to change the WS settings?  

Has anyone else every seen this just get ignored?  I don't see any automation 
grabbing this, nor do I see any RACF error messages.  The command just simply 
is being ignored by JES2?   

We are on z/OS 2.2 around RSU1802.  

Here's the $DOFF2.ST command output:

OFF2.ST  STATUS=INACTIVE,CREATOR=,DISP=KEEP,  
 OUTDISP=(WRITE,HOLD,KEEP),HOLD=, 
 JOBNAME=,NOTIFY=NO,RANGE=(J1,99),
 ROUTECDE=(),START=YES,VOLUME=(,,,),  
 WS=(OUTD,Q/),BURST=,FCB=,FLASH=, 
 FORMS=(,,,),LIMIT=(0,*),PLIM=(0, 
 *),PRMODE=(),QUEUE=,UCS=,WRITER= 

Here's the attempt at the $TOFF2.ST,WS=(/) command:

$TOFF2.ST,WS=(/) 
$HASP886 OFF2.ST 694 
$HASP886 OFF2.ST  STATUS=INACTIVE,CREATOR=,DISP=KEEP,
$HASP886  OUTDISP=(WRITE,HOLD,KEEP),HOLD=,   
$HASP886  JOBNAME=,NOTIFY=NO,RANGE=(J1,99),  
$HASP886  ROUTECDE=(),START=YES,VOLUME=(,,,),
$HASP886  WS=(OUTD,Q/),BURST=,FCB=,FLASH=,   
$HASP886  FORMS=(,,,),LIMIT=(0,*),PLIM=(0,   
$HASP886  *),PRMODE=(),QUEUE=,UCS=,WRITER=   

Anyone have any ideas?  This one is puzzling to me? 
Thanks
