Restarting SMSVSAM address space
Hello, I am setting up environment for RLS. I started SMSVSAM (with V SMS,SMSVSAM,ACTIVE), but now I have to restart it (had some security problems), and I don't know how. I issued V SMS,SMSVSAM,ACTIVE again, since the explanation of the command states that 'it restarts SMSVSAM address space', so I expected it to shut it down and start again. There was no response to this command. Then I tried V SMS,SMSVSAM,TERMINATESERVER, got the message *IGW572I REQUEST TO TERMINATE SMSVSAM ADDRESS SPACE IS ACCEPTED: SMSVSAM SERVER TERMINATION SCHEDULED. Nothing happened after that command, SMSVSAM is still active. This is the display: IGW420I DISPLAY SMS,SMSVSAM DISPLAY SMS,SMSVSAM - SERVER STATUS SYSNAME: SP01 UNAVAILABLE ASID: 0098 STEP: SHC_Ph2_Init DISPLAY SMS,SMSVSAM - JOB STATUS SUBSYSTEMS CONNECTED:0 BATCH:0 DISPLAY SMS,SMSVSAM - LOCK TABLE STATUS (IGWLOCK00) CONNECT STATUS: SYSNAME: SP01 .

SMS DFHSM Information
Good Day I have an opportunity to join our Storage group. I have several years of experience (15) as a Storage Administrator, however, coming from the old manual school, I do not have much experience in the SMS / DFHSM area. I know the basic commands but I would like to know more about these two subjects. I have outlined some topics below: SMS: How do I initialize and allocate a volume under SMS How do I allocate a storage group Allocate an alias for example: ABC.DEF.** in a storage group Allocate a Guaranteed Space in a particular Storage group example. A.BBB.CC How do I compile new changes when made. What are the steps needed to be performed from the time a Storage group is set up, volumes are added to that group and alias defined to that storage group. DFHSM: Archiving and Recalling dataset set up. For example how do I set up the rules for ML1 migration? How do I set up ML2 migration How do I do code the rules to recycle of the DFHSM tapes? I remember we do the recycle every Sunday via batch job. Are there any other commands besides hrecall hsend etc? I remember using ISMF (TSO panel). Can you tell me if this is required to administer SMS DFHSM? Please forgive me for asking so many questions. If I have forgotten anything else please feel free to offer your suggestions.

Re: SMS DFHSM Information
Willie, Have you looked at the SMS Manuals - all the things you are after are described very well there. You can start with the Introduction to SMS book and then go onto the Storage Administration Reference manuals for dfp and hsm. There is even an ISMF User Guide. If you have no manuals at your site - you can go onto the IBM website and browse them online.

Re: Access to Mainframes via Putty?
Paul, I'm coming back to this post because I've realised that your desire to have all the TELNET services available on *one port* - see below - was mentioned in the post you referenced but your snip ignored it. I had a nagging doubt over just exactly how this worked so I've done the research and now I'm happy - and, indeed, if the original new function APAR is anything to go by it was precisely this multiple TELNET server issue that was the reason for creating this new function. The references are as follows: APAR: PQ37421: SUPPORT TO ALLOW MULTIPLE DISSIMILAR SERVERS TO USE THE SAME TCPPORT http://www-1.ibm.com/support/docview.wss?uid=isg1PQ37421 Presentation: IBM Communications Server for OS/390 TCP/IP 2000 Update Technical Presentation Guide http://www.redbooks.ibm.com/redbooks/pdfs/sg246162.pdf Pages 2.14 to 2.17 Of course, it may be the same port but you'll be required to use a different IP address, very likely a VIPA. But, again, a VIPA can be invoked with a friendly name. There's also the possibility - as John McKown indicated - to set up your solicitor function using the facilities of your TELNET client but I appreciate that this probably offers a very simple way also to specify different port numbers so we're back to where we started.

IPCS: accessing data in a dataspace
Reading through IPCS customization, it is not clear to me how to go about accessing data in the dataspace through a verbexit. I would typically use the Storage Access Service (Chap 10.2.18) to acess data in a dump, but it says right up front to use the Storage Access function of the Symbol Service (Chap. 10.2.20). In the Symbol Service, I have to supply an ESR, which in turn describes the ASID of the owning dataspace and the DSPNAME itself. OK so far. What is not clear to me is where to supply the address within the dataspace, or the length of the data I want returned. Do I have to create a symbol (using the Equate Symbol Service) for each address/length I want to (programmatically) look at in the dataspace? Seems like a pain. On the other hand, I considered using the Storage Map Service (Chap 10.2.19), as this indicates dataspace access is supported. But, similarly to the Symbol Service, I have not figured out how/where to specify the address length of storage I am insterested in. Any help is appreciated.

Re: Determine Origin of TSO/RACF Command?
-Original Message- From: IBM Mainframe Discussion List On Behalf Of Walt Farrell On 2/1/2006 4:39 PM, Chase, John wrote: Is there a reliable way, from within (specifically) the RACF IRREVX01 command exit, to determine whether a particular command of interest was entered by a TSO user at a terminal or submitted from a program via the terminal services facility IKJEFTSR? The submitter program in this case would be a program running in a TSO user's session. The intended effect of this is to reject certain CONNECT commands to certain firecall groups except via the specific submitter program. That sounds very tricky. The CONNECT command would be running in the an authorized subtask tree within TSO, and the original submitter program would be running in another part of the subtask tree, with no obvious connection between them that I know of. You could probably walk up the TCB tree until you hit IKJEFT02's parent, then walk down some sibling TCB chain until you reach the end, and then check the PRB and CDE to see if you hit your submitter program. However, even if you find that data, there's no information that I know of that would allow you determine that it is the copy of the program you expected, rather than some other program with the same name, from some other library. Possibly checking for a clean program control environment would help, but that's not a documented programming interface. I might suggest a different approach, with an APF-authorized submitter program that invokes R_admin to do the CONNECT command. This lets the submitter specify the user ID under which to run the command, and your exit could simply check the ID the command is running under., Thanks for the suggestions. I've since learned that the objection raised by our auditors is that some CONNECTs to these firecall groups did not specify the REVOKE keyword with today's date (i.e., a RACF admin issued the CONNECT) as required by our internal controls. Thus it seems that simply adding an appropriate REVOKE via the IRREVX01 exit would resolve the auditors' objection.

Re: Access to Mainframes via Putty?
Jay, Shmuel is right - he often is - well, half-right, but I'm not deducting any points for not mentioning VM. In other words the ICA is supported only under VM and VSE VTAM . From your post I used AWSICA as a Google search word and confirmed the above in one or two hits. I vaguely remembered this also at the time I mentioned the ICA but, since the original poster didn't specify MVS-z/OS, I didn't bother to mention anything. One of the hits was http://www.hammocktree.org/tech/P390QRef.PDF entitled IBM PC Server System/390 Quick Product Guide where we find the following: OS/390 (MVS): OS/390 does not support the ICA so AWSICA cannot be used and BSC line support is not provided. SDLC support for OS/390 is provided by the WAC (Wide Area Connector) and MultiPort Model 2 adapters by using the WAN3172 device manager, emulating a VTAM XCA node (3172 SDLC Gateway). The WAC can be configured for either RS232, V.35, or X.21 interfaces. (RS232 typically runs up to 19.2Kbps, V.35 is used for 56Kbps and higher, with X.21 being used for very high speed, such as T1 connections.) Each WAC has one line interface and one additional interface can be added (interface types can be mixed). There is a maximum of 2 WAC adapters per system since the PB0 only has two ISA slots. The MultiPort model 2 provides up to 8 RS-232 ports per adapter, with a maximum of two adapters. Only ISA bus versions of the WAC and MultiPort model 2 are supported. CHECK: IS WAN3172 plus Portmaster 2 supported on OS/390? It may be something like this you recalled. Clearly there's some sort of smoke and mirrors here where VTAM thinks it's dealing with a LAN - although the interface is the Link Services Architecture (LSA) interface - while the adapter is driving SDLC. But this sub-issue got off the ground because we were talking about the 3767 and there's a snag - not that anyone really should care since we are all well away from the original topic. The snag is that, in addition to using LU type 1 protocols, the 3767 also uses PU type 1 protocols. PUTYPE=1 is not an option with the XCA major node PU statement.

Re: IPCS: accessing data in a dataspace
It's amazing what you manage to see in a listing when you know what you are looking for. Thanks Bob. I'm fully operational at this point. Todd Bob Helps: The BLSRESSY (symbol service) and BLSRSASY structures both use three elements to talk about the dump data of interest: 1. A BLSRDATS structure (field name suffix AS) that you've characterized accurately. It tells IPCS what address space (broader term than you generally hear being used to discuss z/OS) is of interest. A large variety of address spaces are supported in various contexts, including ASID(a) DSPNAME(d). Part of IPCS considers every address space to have full 64-bit addresses. Some front-end functions notice that you really cannot talk about addresses beyond 1040 in a HEADER record and that most data spaces are still limited to 31-bit addresses. 2. An address that comes in two flavors, depending on whether you asked for an ABITS(64) structure or accepted a default ABITS(31) structure. The former is a 64-bit address, and the latter is a 31-bit address in a 32-bit field. In all cases the field name suffix is LAD for logical address. The logical address is the value that you expect to find in other blocks that point to whatever is being discussed. In the case of blocks like TCBs, UCBs, RBs, ASVTs, JSCBs, and at least a few others, it is not the address of the first byte occupied by the thing being discussed. 3. A BLSRDATC structure (field name suffix D in BLSRESSY and F in BLSRSASY) that supplies an attribute bundle including offset, length, and one-dimensional array characteristics. The offset plus the logical address yields the address of the first byte occupied by whatever is being discussed in the address space in the dumped system. When you request a dump access function, the first phsical byte of interst lands in the first byte of the buffer that you provide. That may require an interesting USING operation to get proper addressability to what lands in the buffer. There are also some other fields that help explain why BLSRESSY (symbol table) and BLSRSASY (storage map) records are different. I hope that this helps.

Re: COBOL compile time Question
I just thought of something else (see below) Alan C. Field [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote in message news:OF798E9B96.C165DDCC-ON8625710A.004C9571-8625710A.004CDEF [EMAIL PROTECTED]... Thanks for all the responses. snip * STATISTICS FOR COBOL PROGRAM xx: *SOURCE RECORDS = 376159 *DATA DIVISION STATEMENTS = 21589 *PROCEDURE DIVISION STATEMENTS = 90916 RETURN CODE 16 If you are getting a RETURN CODE 16 message, then you SHOULD be seeing a U-level IGY message somewhere. Although these often (usually?) don't help much (and basically tell you to contact IBM), can you find it in your output anywhere? If so, does it give you any clue as to what problem it was trying to report? Again, it is QUITE common to see this with SSRANGE and *very* large programs, so I sure would recommend changing that before anything else. -- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the message: GET IBM-MAIN INFO Search the archives at http://bama.ua.edu/archives/ibm-main.html
What is ILBOSPI0 ?
Well I compiled one of my complex Cobol programs. Actually it's just a benchmark for different versions of Cobol. It was OS/VS Cobol 5740-CB1 R2.4 from July 1, 1982. Funny, the compiler thought it was 1906. But then we knew it wasn't Y2K compliant. ILBOSPI0 (zero at the end) was in the load module. It came from the SYS1.VSCOBLIB. I specified PARM='STATE,COUNT,FLOW,SYMDMP'. Hope this helps... -- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the message: GET IBM-MAIN INFO Search the archives at http://bama.ua.edu/archives/ibm-main.html
