Re: Z9 Benefits over MP3000

2006-05-27 Thread Chaye Wala

This is not a flame - please - all these 64 bit supporters. Can you please
name a single access method which can do direct asynchromous or synchronous
I/O to a 64 bit address space directly from a device using device
independent code. Something similar to DIV.  A pointer to a sample code will 
be great. I hope I am not asking too much?




Another obvious benefit is that you can run the latest operating systems,
the MP3000 doesn't support 64bit.

Not sure exactly what you mean by device independent code. We do this 
with EXCP and it works with any supported DASD device -- but not with 
tape. Basically, we use 8-byte virtual IDAWs.

Re: RACF user id revocation

2006-05-27 Thread Robert S. Hansel (RSH)
Jeff,

Here are a few more things to consider. Did you check SMF records for ALU
REVOKE commands and for all logon events related to the ID? There may be
records other than just passwords violations that could help explain this
event. Do you have any RACF exits that might effect it? Also, do you have a
database unload from just before the time when it became revoked to see if
there was a REVOKE(date) on the ID?

Regards, Bob

We had a RACF userid for one of our STC's get revoked this week.  I've
since made it a PROTECTED user.  I can't seem to find out how/who/when/where
the ID got revoked.  No msgs in SYSLOG, RAN SYNCTOOL reports (pw violations
and ALU PW Commands) and can't find out what happened.  I have just opened
an issue with IBM but was wondering if anyone could point me somewhere I
havn't already been.

Re: INOP Received

2006-05-27 Thread Chris Mason
Abdullah,

You are providing information which is far too generic with these VTAM
messages. The code is for a Station INOP (inoperative) condition. This
means that something failed between the logic which supports the local
interface on the logical link and the remote interface on the logical link
corresponding to your PU definition statement.

There may be more information - probably not much more - in a NetView
Hardware Monitor (NPDA) event record - of which you may find a duplicate -
in terms of the information it contains - in an EREP MDR record.

You should - since Cisco is supposed to provide such wonderful products that
the whole world is buying them - find much more precise information in the
logs of information provided by the CIP - which I assume exist. Clearly you
look for a record corresponding to - or leading up to - the time of the
failure which identifies the local and remote interfaces in some way.

If you still cannot solve the problem, perhaps you can say more about what
the logical link is that is identified by your switched PU definition
statement with name KQB5040. I assume it worked perfectly with the 3745.

Then again, you could always throw the CIP out and migrate instead to CCL,
the IBM replacement for the 3745, recently upgraded to deal with all the
functions missing in the first release.

Re: Z9 Benefits over MP3000

2006-05-27 Thread Timothy Sipples
Some more benefits not previously mentioned:

1. More LPARs available (if you go past the R07 model).
2. More granular capacity increments.
3. HiperSockets (for fast in-memory cross-LPAR TCP/IP connections).
4. Although speculative, probably there will be an easier in-place upgrade 
to a future model.
5. Intelligent Resource Director (IRD) available.
6. Lower cost, faster, and more numerous IFLs (up to 6 on the A01 model).
7. Expansion up to 64 GB memory (and probably lower cost).
8. Capacity On Demand.

I think the call home feature is also a difference -- I think.

Re: Z9 Benefits over MP3000

2006-05-27 Thread Mike Bell

I am also confused - The only interface to 64 bit virtual that I know of is
media manager code for VSAM - as used by IMS or DB2.

All the rest of the access methods support 31bit virtual with 64 bit real
addresses.  This means no more thrashing around in Z/os looking for a below
the line real buffer for IO.

The other method for 64 bit virtual IO is EXCP or STARTIO because both
methods allow you to translate the address to 64bit real address. at which
point it doesn't matter whether the virtual address was 64 or 31.

Re: Z9 Benefits over MP3000

2006-05-27 Thread Eric N. Bielefeld
I think the biggest benefit of the z9 is that the operating system is 
supported.  I believe next year z/OS 1.4  1.5 will go off support.  Having 
said that, the company I worked for last often ran unsupported software, and 
to no real harm.  We ran VM rel 5.1 until some time in 1999.  I think that 
was out of support for several years by the time we finally shut down VM. 
We ran z/OS 1.2 until last month, which was over a year unsupported.  We 
have never had a problem that was made worse by not having support.  Of 
course, now PH doesn't run a mainframe anymore.

Hmmm.. I installed SMP/E 3.4 several weeks ago and it is docuemented

It was also in all the right places documented by steps in the PMGDIR:

6.1.7  Allocate HFS Paths  . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .  19

Are you using the softcopy (data set) PGMDIR that came with your CBPDO
or something else?

 What's the problem?

 Is there problem with z/vm sles9 nfs client with Z/OS UNIX NFS SERVER?

 

 BEST REGARDS,

 Zoran Trifunovic

Zoran,

It appears, by the prompt, that you are the root on your SLES9 system.
Correct? One thing that is normally done by NFS for security purposes to
to map the root user ( or UID(0) user) to nobody. From looking at
some doc, it appears that this UID is -2. If that UID on z/OS does not
have execute authority to the zoca subdirectory on z/OS, then you
will see exactly what you are seeing: Nothing. For the ls command to
work properly, the user running it must have at least execute
authority on the directory in question. Maybe even read authority.
Sorry, I'm a bit hazy on this.

Look in your NFSATTR being used by the z/OS NFS server and see if you
have setownerroot or setownernobody

So, the question becomes, what are the attributes of the zoca
subdirectory?

ls -ld /path/to/zoca

if you want, try (on the z/OS system!):

chmod o+x /path/to/zoca
chmod o+r /path/to/zoca

and see if that helps.

The above two command will set execute and read authority to other
(non-owner, non-group) users.

Good luck!

Zoran, 
Also check with your z/OS Systems Programmer and ask for the
mvslogin/mvslogout/showattribute code which needs to be compiled on Linux.
There is a requirement that the NFS client (on Linux) authenticate itself to
the z/OS security package so that subsequent read/write/create/delete will
be allowed.
The mvslogin/mvslogout/showattribute support for Linux was introduced at
version 1.7 of MVS NFS Server.

immediately. It may resynchronize with new speed.
