Re: DFHSM - URGENT HELP
If the migrated dataset was scratched, the MCDS definitions for the dataset are gone also, and this is what is causing your recall failure. In addition the the DEF NVSAM to catalog the dataset, you will also need to determine what ML2 volume contains the dataset (may require looking at old HSM CDS backups) and then run an DFHSM AUDIT on that tape, which will then see the dataset cataloged to MIGRAT and on the tape but not in the MCDS and propose/make the necessary fixes in MCDS to make the dataset accessible again. Another approach that we occasionally use, assuming you have backups of the HSM CDS datasets and a recovery/test MVS platform that can be used: You can bring up an HSM environment on a test system with back level versions of the production CDS datasets that still have the dataset on ML2 and catalog the dataset to MIGRAT with DEF NVSAM on the test system, Recall the dataset there, and then export the dataset back to the production system by some means, where it can be re-migrated back to ML2.

Re: Running REXX program in a batch job
I've always assumed there was slightly less overhead in running batch REXX without the TSO TMP, provided you didn't need any TSO commands or ISPF services - but I suspect this overhead is minimal. I believe you also avoid the need for several DDs, which in a bizarre case might make a difference. We regularly run batch TSO (batch TMP), batch REXX, and batch ISPF from production batch jobs, which all run under userids with no TSO access (No TSO Segment and not in SYSUADS). I can't conceive of any rational reason why a sysadmin or auditor would want to restrict batch TMP usage. It buys you no power or data access that could not be derived by other means, except perhaps for the somewhat dubious ability to execute CLISTs - but everything a CLIST can do can be better done by REXX. The reasons for restricting interactive TSO usage have traditionally been because of the greater system overhead of running tasks in an interactive environment, and perhaps because of the fear that the relative ease of interactive searching and browsing would potentially make it easier for someone logged on to TSO to stumble across and misuse sensitive data if someone had failed to adequately protect it. Use of TMP non-interactively in batch has not raised these issues.

Way back when, I was a user of the STK UIMs so that I could gen the 9490s as device type 9490. But, after some z/OS (or perhaps OS/390, it was some time ago) change came along, and the STK UIMs didn't work correctly anymore, I changed to using the standard IBM UIMs - and have not looked back since. If you do decide to go down the path of installing the STK 9490 UIMs into z/OS (the modules must go into SYS1.NUCLEUS, by the way), please post back your results as I'd be curious to hear if STK ever fixed their UIMs for the problem we hit several years ago. There is one side effect to using the IBM 3490 UIM for the 9490 device. The IBM UIM for 3490 expects the Control unit to have 16 devices behind it. The STK UIM 9490 allows for what the STK device actually does - one control unit / one device. As a result, when you generate the production IODF using the IBM 3490 UIM, HCD issues a warning message. CBDG448I Following 8 control units of type 3490 have less devices attached than the minimum number of 16 unit addresses: 0230, 0231, 0232, 0233, 0234, 0235, 0236, 0237 This message appears, and the job I run to create a production IODF ends RC=4.

Re: Dataset-held message to TSO user
ISGECMON appears to work as self-advertized. A quick test on our sandbox gives good results: the owning user is notified regardless of where the job is running. Note that this program works altogether differently from DSNHELD, which is an MPF exit kicked off by message IEF863I on the batch job's system. ISGECMON, running on every system with an interval pop, eventually detects the conflict wherever the user is logged on, so TPUT gets issued on the 'right' system. Thanks to all for the quick help. We're venturing into our first bronze-plex this weekend, so users will likely see some GRS false contentions. Having sysplex-wide notification will help.

Re: ATMs (Was: High order bit in 31/24 bit address)
My first "real" job was in 1984 with Texas American (Bank) Services in Fort Worth. When I started we were in the process of "insourcing" all of our applications from EDS and one of the first three we brought back in house was ATM processing (followed by ACH and Corporate Trust). TASI built a new operations center in Bedford to be closer to the airport (for cash letter transit) and Memorial Day weekend, 1984 we moved two 3890 sorters, a 3083, 4341 and a 370/148. During the move, IBM loaned us a 4341 and DASD that ran the ATMs and the interface to PULSE for the weekend. Does anyone remember the CICS-based ATM software that the old MTech wrote and marketed? Later on in 1985 I did a tour of duty with UCCEL's ACM/CTS (Asset Card Manager/Consumer Transaction System) CICS=based ATM / card management software.

But, after some z/OS (or perhaps OS/390, it was some time ago) change came along, and the STK UIMs didn't work correctly anymore, I changed to using the standard IBM UIMs - and have not looked back since. If you do decide to go down the path of installing the STK 9490 UIMs into z/OS (the modules must go into SYS1.NUCLEUS, by the way), please post back your results as I'd be curious to hear if STK ever fixed their UIMs for the problem we hit several years ago. There is one side effect to using the IBM 3490 UIM for the 9490 device. The IBM UIM for 3490 expects the Control unit to have 16 devices behind it. The STK UIM 9490 allows for what the STK device actually does - one control unit / one device. As a result, when you generate the production IODF using the IBM 3490 UIM, HCD issues a warning message. CBDG448I Following 8 control units of type 3490 have less devices attached than the minimum number of 16 unit addresses: 0230, 0231, 0232, 0233, 0234, 0235, 0236, 0237 This message appears, and the job I run to create a production IODF ends RC=4. Everything works correctly - I believe this is how nearly every STK 9490 user does this. Here's definitions for eight 9490 devices, with device numbers 230-237: CNTLUNIT CUNUMBR=0230,PATH=(1C,29),UNITADD=((00,016)),* LINK=(B6,B6),UNIT=3490 CNTLUNIT CUNUMBR=0231,PATH=(1C,29),UNITADD=((00,016)),* LINK=(BA,BA),UNIT=3490 CNTLUNIT CUNUMBR=0232,PATH=(1C,29),UNITADD=((00,016)),* LINK=(BD,BD),UNIT=3490 CNTLUNIT CUNUMBR=0233,PATH=(1C,29),UNITADD=((00,016)),* LINK=(C1,C1),UNIT=3490 CNTLUNIT CUNUMBR=0234,PATH=(36,43),UNITADD=((00,016)),* LINK=(B8,B8),UNIT=3490 CNTLUNIT CUNUMBR=0235,PATH=(36,43),UNITADD=((00,016)),* LINK=(BE,BE),UNIT=3490 CNTLUNIT CUNUMBR=0236,PATH=(36,43),UNITADD=((00,016)),* LINK=(C1,C1),UNIT=3490 CNTLUNIT CUNUMBR=0237,PATH=(36,43),UNITADD=((00,016)),* LINK=(C4,C4),UNIT=3490 IODEVICE ADDRESS=230,UNITADD=00,CUNUMBR=(0230),STADET=Y, * UNIT=3490 IODEVICE ADDRESS=231,UNITADD=00,CUNUMBR=(0231),STADET=Y, * UNIT=3490 IODEVICE ADDRESS=232,UNITADD=00,CUNUMBR=(0232),STADET=Y, * UNIT=3490 IODEVICE ADDRESS=233,UNITADD=00,CUNUMBR=(0233),STADET=Y, * UNIT=3490 IODEVICE ADDRESS=234,UNITADD=00,CUNUMBR=(0234),STADET=Y, * UNIT=3490 IODEVICE ADDRESS=235,UNITADD=00,CUNUMBR=(0235),STADET=Y, * UNIT=3490 IODEVICE ADDRESS=236,UNITADD=00,CUNUMBR=(0236),STADET=Y, * UNIT=3490 IODEVICE ADDRESS=237,UNITADD=00,CUNUMBR=(0237),STADET=Y, * UNIT=3490 Brian On Fri, 16 Nov 2007 17:43:12 +, Roy Hewitt wrote: >George, > >Yes you could define them as 9490, and as you have discovered you will >need to install various modules to install the HCD UIMs, as HCD does not >understand '9490' > >However, there is little point in doing this as you can just as easily >define them with Control Unit 3490 and Device Type 3490.

Re: DFHSM - URGENT HELP
Issue the DEFINE command again but use device type DEVT(X'78048083'). Then try to recall the dataset. If it fails look in the HSM Storage Administration Guide and follow the steps for Case 9 in the Data Recovery Scenarios Chapter (at least that is the case in the 1.8 manual!).

Re: CICS 3.1 Installation and Web Services for CICS
Hunter, I actually got the same impression from his original post. Ken, Web Services provides program-to-program communications which can be (but doesn't have to be) cross platform. So an application on Linux for System z or Windows (for instance) can call a CICS program. A CICS program, on the other hand, can also call a program running on other platforms. It's certainly not new technology, but it's very cool! Hunter Cobb wrote: You might want to distinguish between using CICS as a web server (check the CICS TS 3.1 Internet Guide, SC34-6450), and using CICS as a Web Services provider (check the CICS TS 3.1 Web Services Guide, SC34-6458). As a web server, CICS can deliver both static web pages and application-generated pages. As a Web Services provider, CICS responds to program-to-program requests from the web. FWIW, CICS can also act as a Web Services requester. From your original posting, it sounds like CICS as a web server is more what you have in mind. For this, you'll probably need to define several CICS resources: TCPIPSERVICE, DOCTEMPLATE, and URIMAP.

Re: Newspaper: IBM Invests $5M in Illinois State Univ.
Jim, I would think that you would be better off having a z/VM LPAR with a number of guests from which you can IPL z/OS, rather than having a z/OS LPAR for the OS students to play with. This configuration will allow for IPLing z/OS without requiring access to the HMC (either direct or remote). Just a thought.

Note, however, that since one of the engines is an IFL, there will need to be at least 2 LPARs, since you can't mix CPs and IFLs. Even so, sharing all those resources under z/VM will make life a lot easier for everyone. And I love being able to IPL systems from my desk, and have the console right there in front of me.

Re: STK SILO DEVTYPE 9490
George, Yes you could define them as 9490, and as you have discovered you will need to install various modules to install the HCD UIMs, as HCD does not understand '9490' However, there is little point in doing this as you can just as easily define them with Control Unit 3490 and Device Type 3490. I have been doing it this way evey since 9490s became available - never had a problem.

Re: Newspaper: IBM Invests $5M in Illinois State Univ.
I can calm some of your fears. While I have nothing to do with the Academic Initiative Program here at ISU, I was the Derry quoted in the article. Have you ever tried to explain a variable priced computer and incremental software charges to non-technical newspaper people before. It ain't easy. The z890 that was loaned to ISU will be configured as a model 370 and with an IFL. It will be configured with 4 LPARS. A z/OS LPAR will be for operating system students to install, configure and IPL at will. I can only imagine how many times that will be IPL'ed in a day. The other LPAR will be a more stable z/OS system for teaching DB2, COBOL, Assembler, and other courses. I heard at Educause that a large retail company has donated 2 million rows of transactional DB2 data for the Academic Initiative project. There will also be two z/VM LPARS with Linux instances under them. What I thought was interesting was that the program included any IBM software that the students want. The one thing that did get to me during the ceremony was that they kept talking about the old baby-boomers that are currently running the systems. I don't want to be called old at 49.

HSM secondary space management - order?
Does anyone know how HSM determines the order to move eligible datasets from ML1 to ML2? We have HSM secondary space management set up to run between (0900 1600) and it usually runs out of time.

z/OS V1R6 to V1R9 migration
Hi All, We're a shop running z/OS V1R6 and z/OS V1R7, looking into migration to z/OS V1R9 Migration manuals for z/OS V1R9 say nothing about supported migration paths for safely going from z/OS V1R6 to z/OS V1R9 and insuring safe fallback in case backing out is required (maybe IBM is only saying that such a scenario has not been tested) Looking into some APARs listed in the "Migration" manual (GA22-7499-11), I can occasionally spot PTFs per these APARs, for pre-V1R7 system components too(*), and I can glean them and install them on my z/OS V1R6 system Will it suffice ? Has anyone done such a migration leap and cares to share experience ? What do IBM staffers here have to say on this ? (*) For instance, the "Migration" manual (GA22-7499-11) lists UA22351 (APAR OA13525) as a PTF required for z/OS V1R7 IEBCOPY (HDZ11K0) to tolerate format-5 program objects introduced at V1R8. Looking up OA13525 at https://techsupport.services.ibm.com/server/zseries.srchBroker I can see it suggests UA22350 for HDZ11J0, UA22349 for HDZ11H0, and UA22348 for HDZ11G0. So, seems applying UA22350 is supposed to make V1R6 IEBCOPY (HDZ11J0) tolerate format-5 program objects. Isn't it ? Another example: The "Migration" manual lists UA24984 (APAR OA12922) as a PTF required for z/OS V1R7 JES2 (HJE7720) to coexist with V1R9 JES2 in a MAS. Looking up OA12922 at https://techsupport.services.ibm.com/server/zseries.srchBroker I can see it suggests UA24984 for HJE7720, UA24983 for HJE7708 (V1R5 JES2, this is the JES2 we have on our V1R6 system), and even UA24982 for HJE7707 (V1R4 JES2). So, seems applying UA24983 is supposed to make V1R5 JES2 coexist with V1R9 JES2, per this APAR. Am I wrong ? Be a better sports nut! Let your teams follow you with Yahoo Mobile.

Re: Remote HMC Access setup
Paul, You didn't mention anything about contacting IBM to give you the default userid and password. I'm sure they can help you. If you have a z9, IBM's latest and greatest, I'm sure they will help.

Re: good, bad, or ugly?
My zfs file systems are *not* SMS managed and I have no issues. Lucymarie Ruth No good reason not to, but IBM is making us take a step backward by making zFS'es VSAM. That means we have to go back to having SMS-managed, non-esoterically cataloged filesystems. Not good for those folks who like to clone their filesystems just like any other datasets when building their system residence volumes. -- 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: Incremental Backup/Restore for HFS/zFS
>Hi List, >Anyone out there can share the Incremental backup & restore procedure for HFS/zFS instead of Full Volume Backup ? > One solution here is Tivoli Storage Manager for z/OS (think HSM for the distributed world) where it runs on the smallest machine (less cost) in the SYSPLEX and has a small license charge to dump/restore to other larger machines in the SYSPLEX. In this way I leverage the automation of z/OS, exploit the VTS/3494 managed by RMM (or CA-1). You get the ability to dump other things besides zFS/HFS files in the distributed world such as Oracle, DB2, Windows, etc, not to mention Linux on z file systems. jim -- 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: Problem with a CVC defined channel
Hello Walter, Because there is only this device attached on this channel and only the PROD LPAR needs access. On the previous channel there are attached 4 devices like printers etc. I defined the new statement with HCD. What you see is the extract from HCD. I defined the new channel dedicated, so normally there is no possibility to select a candidate LPAR. Before i do the dynamic reconfiguration the old channel was active in the PROD partition.

Re: Migration from z/OS 1.4 to ???
Ted: Thanks for the reply. On some IBM websites, when you investigate the migration options, and you are looking at something outside the supported V1R4 to V1R7 path, you get "contact your IBM representative". Well, although I was a 20-year IBMer, I am inclined to ask the people who support the systems in the real world if anyone has found a way around the prescribed solution. While I may well have to follow the prescribed solution, it doesn't hurt to ask. Mike MacNEIL wrote: Does anyone out there know of a reasonable way of successfully bypassing V1R7 and migrating to V1R8, when coming from V1R4? There isn't one, unfortunately. IBM only promises compatibility for N, N+1, N+2, N+3. Where N is 1.4 and N+3 is 1.7. There are control blocks, catalogues and other things that change too drastically. Plus, in this case, a lot of JES2 exits change in 1.7.
