Phoenix Software has (E)JES, and Syzygy has SyzSPOOL/z and SyzMAIL/z.
SDSF also has mail capability of some sort (adding mail notification to jobs
and maybe some more related functionality).

How about IEBPTPCH? Write out the members as a huge flatfile, and insert member
building control cards wherever appropriate.
Then build a PDS from that?

If you have time, could you give us some examples of the interesting deployment
options?
Apart from the "embedded" DS8K you've mentioned.
Thank you!

If I were to guess, I think this is plumbing related to the new (?) capability
of PCIe-attached NVMe storage.
Also, what's "CP support of Linux on Z"?

And an add-on question if I may - zEDC or z15+ on-chip compression... does this
apply only to data heading to disk, or does it apply for data heading to tape
too.
If it applies for data heading to tape also, does that mean there are 2 levels
of compression now - CP's on-chip compression + zstd
Is it an option to use a h/w service provider such as BlueChip (UK-based)... or
any org in your location that would do a one-off?

I'm afraid the best bet is to work with IBM VTL engineers to manually get rid
of them.

Anything that involves Liberty or zOSMF immediately dampens my enthusiasm...

In addition to RACF, there is a layer of security rules refresh within OPSMVS
itself.
Don't know the specifics of it, but the OPS/MVS docs will surely cover it.

I'm sure they would be very upset if they knew.
Those whose reputation precede them can get away with it.
Or if there is still trust to be found in workplaces (as David said).

Hello,
Does anyone have a copy of this?
APAR II13495 - HOW DFSORT TAKES ADVANTAGE OF 64-BIT REAL ARCHITECTURE
I don't know what IBM has against TechDocs and treating their technical
employees' work with respect, to not properly organize & archive it.

Personally, I was hoping there'd be more benefit, rather than just the zOSMF
startup time.
Was hoping OMVS STC itself would show reduced MSU somehow (than OMVS + zFS as
it were).
Or at least a significant EXCP drop.
