GRS and Temp datasets

Hi All! Can anyone confirm or refute my understanding of GRS parameter parsing. I recently did an exclude of SYS1 datasets by using a generic RNLDEF RNLDEF RNL(EXCL) TYPE(GENERIC) QNAME(SYSDSN) RNAME(SYS1) I found that this also happened to include the exclusion of temp datasets starting

WLM Managed Initiators, enhanced management.

Hello group, I have implemented WLM Managed Initiators years ago and I found it a problem, that WLM stops managing batch when I need it most: when all systems are (near) full. Searching for options to do some dynamic management myself, I found this beautiful presentation: WLM Functions for

Alternative to TSO RECEIVE

I'm using TSO RECEIVE to read outputs from JES SPOOL. The outputs is created by allocating and writing as: Rc = BPXWDYN('ALLOC LOGROUTT SYSOUT(8) SPIN(UNALLOC) DEST(systarget.userid) RECFM(V,B) LRECL(varies) BLKSIZE(32756) REUSE') 'EXECIO' s.0 'DISKW LOGROUTT (STEM S.

Re: Question on PER-SLIP and PRCNTLIM.

When SLIP SLIH code is active for a SLIP, what happens if another SLIP is triggered on another CP? Is the system in a non-dispatchable state? Is SPIN SLIH code serialized? SLIP does not need to serialize against itself for the most part. Accumulation of time, for example, is what any

Re: TSO in batch, RECEIVE storage class - solved

Thanks to all who responded on this. I'm sorry to say that I appear to have wasted your time. The root of the problem was tied up with my SMS ACS rules A quick shuffle of the rules, and the problem went away ah, well... if everything went right on the first attempt, I'd be out of a job, I guess.

REXX syscall spawnp and IPCS

Hello, I've run out of hammers trying to use REXX syscall spawnp to run a REXX that drives IPCS in a child address space. IPCS is starting OK, but it does not appear to be accepting the SYSTSIN cards I'm piping to it. My latest attempt retrieves the input from the piped STDIN and queues it to
