Blocksize and speed limit on an FICON channel

However I believe it won't be limiting factor. The real bottleneck would be your source media speed. It will be DASD, won't it ? DASD is much SLOWER then tape, when considering sustained sequential I/O's. AFAIK ADRDSSU still uses 64kB blocks on tape. ExHPDM would help if single output will be created from several interlaced input streams. In that case several disk would work for single tape.

Re: Help with some Acronyms Please
SDBM I think the S stands for Security and as Ulrich mentioned was meant as a pointer to RACF which is used as the DBM (Data Base Manager) in this case. TDBM Funny story if I remember it correctly: First version of LDAP had a Relational Data Base Manager, i.e. DB2 on z/OS, as the general backend. Hence RDBM. Next version, while still supporting the RDBM model, implemented a new table design with the backend DBM (mainly for performance reasons). A name had to be chosen for this new model. T was the next letter after R and S in the alphabet, both of which were already in use by LDAP. So, the new model was given the name TDBM. You had the choice of using either the RDBM or the TDBM model of LDAP for its data base backend (both BD2 but different table setup). I don't know if RDBM is still supported with the current release of LDPA on z/OS.

You need one jumpered CNC/CTC for the wraparound function on any one machine. (That's two CHPIDs.) Each CHPID pair has 256 addresses you can play with. If you split up into groups of four, that gives you room for 64 LPAR connections. However, since you can run Communication Server (VTAM and TCPIP) and GRS traffic over XCF, you probably won't realistically need more than two addresses per LPAR connection. For redundancy, a second CTC/CNC pair is a good idea. Regardless of whether on the same system or between systems, you need a good naming convention to keep things straight. IMHO, the following post from Skip Robinson is a must read: Once I changed my naming convention to match what he suggested, adding a new LPAR became easy. http://bama.ua.edu/cgi-bin/wa?A2=ind0207L=ibm-mainP=R51155 -- Edward E Jaffe Phoenix Software International, Inc 5200 W Century Blvd, Suite 800 Los Angeles, CA 90045 310-338-0400 x318 [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.phoenixsoftware.com/ -- 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

Re: Monday blues? (IKJEFTSR RC=20,RSN=40)
Did you ever check the ISPF TSO Command Table to see if perhaps site modifications were accidentally regressed with your z/OS maintenance? Perhaps you used to have an entry for DocuText in this table, and now you don't. From ISPF Planning and Customizing: 3.17 Customizing the ISPF TSO command table (ISPTCM) The ISPF TSO command table (ISPTCM) describes the TSO commands that are invoked under ISPF. When a TSO command is issued, ISPF searches ISPTCM. If the command is found, it uses the information in the table to process the command. If the command is not in ISPTCM, ISPF uses default values, which are in the table.

Re: Blocksize and speed limit on an FICON channel
We are using FICON Express 2Go connected on a z/800 mainframe. Does anyone know the block size of an ADRDSSU physical dump? We are wondering if we need or not software like ExHPDM (STK Product) that is able to dump on cartdrige with a 256K blocksize. Some people are saying that speed limit on an Ficon channel depending on the blocksize of the data that was carrying on. ADRDSSU uses a 64K blocksize. Yes, the effective speed of FICON or ESCON is affected by the blocksize. A smaller blocksize requires more CCWs and probably more I/Os to transfer the same amount of data, and there is an overhead per CCW. I believe that the overhead is worse on ESCON than FICON but it is still there on FICON. However, the max data that can be sent in a single CCW is 64K-1. To write larger blocks up to 256K you must use data chaining, which means using 4 or 5 CCWs to send the larger block. The overhead for data chaining is less than for command chaining but still not zero. So I doubt if ExHPDM will provide any significant performance gain over a direct backup, plus ExHPDM has its own overhead. In any case, the tape drive always internally blocks user blocks (after compression) into superblocks on the tape; last number I recall for a superblock was 384K on 3590. As someone else said, the channel is unlikely to be your bottleneck for a single backup. The disk and the tape are undoubtely slower than the channel. But if you do concurrent backups down the same disk or tape channels, you might start to stress out the channel -- Bruce A.

Re: Blocksize and speed limit on an FICON channel
I'm currently working on a project where we have to dump on tape (3592 Jaguar 2) about 6To in 6 hours (~1To/h). We are using FICON Express 2Go connected on a z/800 mainframe. Does anyone know the block size of an ADRDSSU physical dump? We are wondering if we need or not software like ExHPDM (STK Product) that is able to dump on cartdrige with a 256K blocksize. Some people are saying that speed limit on an Ficon channel depending on the blocksize of the data that was carrying on. Rom - We use ExHPDM and have been happy with it. We move about 2.7Tb to six Escon attached 9840b drives in about 2 hours. Remember, however, that its a balancing act between your source disk speeds and the number and speed of the tape drives you have. Our source disk is two Escon attached STK arrays and we have another product feature called HSDM (High Speed Data Mover) which moves the data from disk to tape in its native compressed format. If you're not familiar with STK disk, the data is stored on the disk in a compressed format. So while we are logically moving 2.7Tb, we are only actually physically moving about 600Gb. We've pretty much balanced and maxed out the throughput of the arrays and drives through trial and error. We're running 42 concurrent FDR backups which are streamed to those six tapes drives by ExHPDM. So adding more drives does not get us any more speed - we would have to spread the data across more disk arrays or faster disk arrays, and then add more tape drives also to handle the throughput. What type of disk is your source data stored on? Hope the info is useful.

Re: Blocksize and speed limit on an FICON channel
I was told by someone at Sun/STK that ExHPDM doesn't buy you anything with FICON attached tape. Since we still have ESCON attached host (MVS) drives at this point, I haven't verified the statement. What does anyone else know about this? It will still buy you the ability to stream multiple backups to a single tape concurrently. We dump 2.7 Tb across 800+ volumes to 25 tapes (9840) using 6 drives in about 2 hours.

Your observation of normally have the same TIOT pointer has been found to be not so normal.

I agree (and I stated) the support is partial. I hope it's on IBM's agenda to provide ISPF LM, BPAM write, and DESERV support for HFS directories. That would be very nice. However, around here, we are not likely to ever use HFS/ZFS instead of PDS or PDSE files for a number of reasons. Some are good, others are bad. 1) Nobody recognized me, I didn't look the same. That is, people around here tend to not be too interested in new things. They are too busy trying to bail the boat to worry about painting it a new color. Very few here have any notion of UNIX concepts. Even fewer care. Perhaps a bit short sighted, but what can I do? I try, but nobody wants to listen. 2) Our application backup methodology is based on a product called VFI. VFI does not currently support HFS/ZFS resident files, only legacy files (PDS, sequential - disk and tape resident, and VSAM). VFI finds changed/created files by processing SMF records. HFS file activity does not cut SMF type 14/15 records when a file is closed. As best as I can tell, there is no way to track HFS file activity via SMF records. 3) Speaking of the above, we often use MXG to answer the question: Who is using a particular file? We do this to determine if a file can be eliminated. 4) DFSMShsm does not support UNIX resident files. I think that some Tivoli product does, but that is more money for no better functionality. 5) Cannot use a UNIX subdirectory in a STEPLIB/JOBLIB. This really destroys any desire on my part to put any legacy programs in a UNIX subdirectory. 6) Increased RACF work to assign everybody a unique UNIX UID. This could likely be automated, using the AUTOUID in the ADDUSER. This assumes that people would want to replace their personal PDSes with UNIX subdirectories. A very unlikely scenario, in my opinion. see #1 above Having said all of that, I would really LOVE to try to NFS export, or use SMB, so that my z/OS UNIX home would be accessable from my workstation.

Re: Blocksize and speed limit on an FICON channel
Radoslaw, The real bottleneck would be your source media speed. It will be DASD, won't it ? DASD is much SLOWER then tape, when considering sustained sequential I/O's. This has not been true for a long time. Pre-fetching concurrently of 4 or 8 drives is much faster than a single tape drive can handle.

What's driving my temp data sets to Catalog processing?
Hi folks, I was running GTF to trace SVC 26(CATALOG) to try and figure out why my master catalog hit ratio is between 45-55% both with ISC or VLF, but that may be another thread for another day. I noticed quite a few temporary data sets requests in the trace. The majority if not all were coming out of a third party package (CA Endevor). We do manage our temporary data sets thorugh SMS, however I can't seem to create the same situation either with a amp;TEMP data set in JCL, or running IKJEFT01 in batch and using the TSO ALLOC command. When I GTF my job I don't see any of the temporary data sets in the trace. Can anyone tell me under what circumstances SVC 26 will be used for temporary data sets? Here are a couple of GTF entries for anyone game enough to try. The first word of the PLIST varies a bit although 04008101 seems to be quite common and I believe it along with the 08 at offset 16 is simply a Define.

You have seen TCBTIO e different, but that's not the issue. The issue is whether you have ever seen a situation where the code needed a TIOT other than the one pointed to by the TCB it is running under. My code CAN run in an STC environment. It can also run as a batch job, or even invoked to be an attached task to either environment. So knowing where to get to the JCL built TIOT every time the code gets called is important. What use to you is the JCL built TIOT if your running under a TCB that doesn't point to it? What gives me that idea are some very interesting things I've seen in dumps Please reread my message; you're answering a question that I never asked instead of the one that I did ask. Your observation of normally have the same TIOT pointer has been found to be not so normal. Perhaps we don't mean the same thing by normal. What percentage of cases has to exhibit a pathology before you consider it normal? I am still trying to get my hands around who or what can builds a TIOT as a daughter or great grand daughter task. Why? What would you do with the TIOT for a task that you're not running under? But I have seen that as well as TCBs with TCBTIO = 0. You shouldn't be doing DYNALLOC under those. Personally I use PSATOLD - TCBJSTCB - TCBTIO. That's the right way to do the wrong thing.

WebSphere HATS Webcast, New HOD and PComm
There's a HATS webcast coming up on August 8, 2006, at 2:00 p.m. Eastern U.S. time. Register here: http://event.on24.com/clients/ibm/getreadyforSOA Also, on July 25, 2006, IBM announced WebSphere Host On-Demand Version 10 and Personal Communications Version 5.9. Details here: http://www.ibm.com/common/ssi/rep_ca/1/897/ENUS206-171/ENUS206-171.PDF [What are they?] WebSphere HATS (Host Access Transformation Services) can convert 3270 and 5250 applications on-the-fly into true HTML Web applications for any standard Web browser, with or without customizing the user interface. (No browser plug-ins are required.) In addition, HATS can connect to 3270, 5250, and VT terminal applications and give them Web service (SOAP) interfaces. WebSphere Host On-Demand provides 3270, 5250, VT, and file transfer to Web browser users on all platforms. Users do not have to install emulation software on their desktops, but they receive full function and high performance terminal emulation (keyboard remapping, macros, client-server support, subsecond responsiveness, printer sessions, etc.) Personal Communications provides traditional terminal emulation capabilities for PCs. In addition to local installation, PComm also supports network installation and Windows Terminal Server/Citrix installations. While PComm installs on PCs, both WebSphere HATS and Host On-Demand can install on z/OS and mainframe Linux. In fact, those are two of the most popular platforms. All three support the latest security protocols and architectures. - - - - - Timothy F.
