Between the production and AD sysplex there had historically been an NJE
connection. Originally that was NJE/SNA. A few years ago that stopped working
(I was told due to misconfiguration of EE), so NJE was switched to NJE/TCP. At
the same time NJE/TCP connections were defined to the three other
This is almost always a problem with the VTAM definition of the NJE applid that
you are using. Possibly you didn't start it or it was started before VTAM or

The NJE/TCP connection method should work out much better than the SNA method,
but there is no

Hi,
Is it possible to track the changes made to VSAM file attributes via the SMF
records? If so, what do I look out for?
I used the DAF program to see the updates/changes/alters, but was unable to
spot the required information.
Please assist if possible.

You can use STOPAFT parm to stop reading the input once you get to a
threshold value. For example if you have file with

Unfortunately Sort does not have that feature.

When using SORT (either DFSORT or SYNCSORT) to select a relatively small sample
of records by (a) particular key value(s) from a *very large* sequential file,
when one knows in advance that the "key values" used to select the desired
sample records are in sorted order in the input file, is
Thanks Sri, I am aware of the STOPAFT parameter, but it uses a hard-coded
count. When the goal is to find ALL records with the selected values and one

be.
I was thinking of a command similar to OMIT / INCLUDE,
It's not clear what you're asking. There have been two answers to possible
interpretations of the question, both appropriate.
By "moved", do you mean copying an entire target and target zone, or copying
libraries without copying the target zone recording their status?

Not sure how a sequential file has a "KEY". It may be a value in fixed
columns.
I'm sure it's why we've been sorting files for donkeys years.

I'm not quite understanding how that could work with current SORT software.
E.G., if there are 100 records to be selected in the first 100,000 records and
none after that, the relative record number would be 10 for the SORT
STOPAFT, not exactly what was requested.
SORT JOIN can do the
Hi Peter,
If you have IBM File Manager you could do what you need with the Data Set
Copy (DSC) function and an enhanced processing procedure:
$$FILEM DSC INPUT=DDIN,
$$FILEM OUTPUT=DDOUT,
$$FILEM PROC=*
IF FLDI(1,3,C,'GT',"ABC") THEN
RETURN STOP IMMEDIATE/* Stop processing
I agree with Christopher. I designed an Assembler Macro that built an exit
exit module. A few seconds to Assemble. GET on a sequential file, pass to
sort if required. RC = 8 when you get past the desired key value.
Of course if you are not sorting, add a PUT instead of a return.

A normal user with authority to update the master catalog is a potential system

For unordered data you need to read every record to have that feature. If
you have the resources, put it into a DB2 table and apply deltas to the
table. Or a VSAM KSDS.

In short-speak, yes. A user can use his own catalog rather than the
master catalog, howbeit via the MCAT's then containing an entry pointing
at the user's logon ID as an hlq (or similar) in the user's UCAT.
Anything can be done with a bit of frigging around. But the question is,
why and is it

JTIP is more of an unsupported SAPI; it doesn't do what SDSF does. Various
versions of Wylbur supported it as an alternative SPOOL access. Do you have a
batch version of Wylbur at your shop?

You could also use an E15 and return an 8 when you get past the interesting

I find "KEY" used apparently in that sense in numerous places in:

Why not just write a small program ?
COBOL ?

E15 exit? Used to do this to get keyranges from CA-Datacom using GETIT.
Just pass the desired value to the exit to tell sort to finish.

Hi,
I have been asked to investigate a number of JES2 Exits which are being
used to support remnants of J/TIP.
Does anyone here have J/TIP documentation or know where to find it?
J/TIP is from University of Illinois in the '70s-'8-80s and the acronym
is short for JES2 TSO Interface Program.
