Re: VB: Creating dynamic 3270 screen size definitions for increased productivity TD102151
Edward, I'd like to encourage you to try using the NetView Session Monitor (NLDM) trace function with the CPIU (complete PIU) option.

Re: RACF and DFHSM tapes
Mike: Thanks for your accurate answer. We dont have TAPEDSN in effect (we just control access to tape datasets by TAPEVOL profiles). Tapes used by HSM, in our shop, have a very distinctive naming convention, so i do not think that a generic RACF protection would interfere with user tapes. On the other hand, we do have RMM installed, but not fully exploited yet. Our current HSM setting is TAPESECURITY(RACF/RACFINCLUDE). My main concern is: Let suppose that i A) define a generic TAPEVOL profile covering all tapes used by HSM, with a proper ACL. B) delete the HSMHSM profile. Will HSM work properly? Should i expect any HSM failure? Will HSM show error messages each it uses a new tape because of trying to RACF protect it? Thanks in advance, Juan G.

Do you have TAPEDSN as well as using TAPEVOL? Using a generic TAPEVOL profile is not a good idea because it will cause all matching scratch tapes to be protected. If you only allow HSM access all other tape users will fail. HSM uses the TAPEVOL profiles to prevent others from accessing its tapes. If you had TAPEDSN in use you could perhaps use generic DATASET profiles for the HSM tapes instead. Once that was in place you wouldnt need to use TAPESECURITY(RACF/RACFINCLUDE). You should make sure that your tape management system is ensuring ful 44 character data set names are verified to avoid anyone making up a prefix to go with the 17 characters stored in the tape label. BTW, HSM will quite happily maintain the TAPEVOL profiles while you set up and test that the generic DATASETs work ok; once you are happy its working you can change the HSM SETSYS and deelte the TAPEVOLs for HSM.

Re: SETPROG Command question
The thread started with the question of What are the limitations/restrictions of the SETPROG LPA command? to which the answer is None that are relevant. Sam Knutson's response correctly pointed out that AMBLIST is not the right way to display LPA information, and will not work at all for dynamic LPA. A subsequent append then stated I copied my new IEFACTRT module into SYS1.LPALIB, Issued the EXIT delete and EXIT add commands, however, I still am not seeing the new ACTRT module. This of course does nothing. Simply copying into a data set when that data set is never again going to be looked at normally during the IPL is not useful. But use of dynamic LPA following that should work. Use SETPROG LPA to add your new IEFACTRT module into LPA from whatever data set you put it. SETPROG EXIT DELETE the old one SETPROG EXIT ADD the new one Barbara Nitz's append addressed all the really pertinent issues. Regarding About the problem of IEFACTRT, I has the same problem to add a module of product ASG named IMPACT in Z/os 1.4, and the solution for the problem: (PROGAS - SYS1.PARMLIB) EXIT ADD EXITNAME (SYS.IEFACTRT) MODNAME (ASFACTRT) STATE (ACTIVE) DSNAME (ASFH1.VS360.LOADLIB) EXIT ADD EXITNAME (SYSSTC.IEFACTRT) MODNAME (ASFACTRT) STATE (ACTIVE) DSNAME (ASFH1.VS360.LOADLIB) This is not a good approach. It would be better to have added ASFACTRT to LPA via (for example) SETPROG LPA ADD MOD(ASFACTRT) DSNAME(ASFH1.VS360.LOADLIB) and then not specify DSNAME on the EXIT ADD because then you will only get one copy in common storage of ASFACTRT as opposed to 2. .

Re: SORTWKnn question
Jim McAlpine wrote on 11/14/2005 08:39:52 AM: OK then one further question. The FM recommends to use a small number of dynamic work files ie 2 or 3. Does sort allocate multi volume files if they need to be very large for a very big sort. What is The FM? DFSORT only uses the first volume of multivolume work files, so it does NOT dynamically allocate multivolume work files. DFSORT's shipped default for the maximum number of dynamically allocated work files is 4. This is generally a good choice as the default, but you might want to set the default larger if the majority of the jobs need more work files. Alternatively, you can just set a larger number of maximum work files for the specific jobs that need them with: //DFSPARM DD * OPTION DYNALLOC=(,n) /* where n is the number of work files and go up to 255.

A subsequent append then stated I copied my new IEFACTRT module into SYS1.LPALIB, Issued the EXIT delete and EXIT add commands, however, I still am not seeing the new ACTRT module.

It would be better to have added ASFACTRT to LPA via (for example) SETPROG LPA ADD MOD(ASFACTRT) DSNAME(ASFH1.VS360.LOADLIB) and then not specify DSNAME on the EXIT ADD because then you will only get one copy in common storage of ASFACTRT as opposed to 2. .
