Re: How to move DFDSS DUMPS on tape with large block sizes to TMM DASD?
Fred Schmidt pisze: Hi folks, We are in the process of migrating from 3590 to 3592 tape. We would like to use HSM's Tape Mount Management (TMM) to stack data on the new tapes, thus taking advantage of their much greater capacity. However, much of the data we have on 3590 tape currently is backups in DFDSS DUMP format with a blocksize of 229360 (LBI). The fine DFDSS manual says that COPYDUMP is the only supported method for copying DUMP datasets, and that it cannot be used to change the blocksize of the DUMP dataset. This means that we cannot copy this data from tape to DASD as it does not support block sizes larger than 32760. Therefore we cannot copy it to TMM. I have considered restoring the datasets in these dumps and then re-dumping them to TMM. However, since the datasets in the dumps largely still exist, they would have to be restored to a non-SMS volume as uncataloged datasets. Given that we have some 22,000 datasets on tape and a lot of them are DFDSS DUMP's, that is starting to look very ugly. So, does anybody have a more practical approach? The most practical approach: use proper tools. HSM (of FDR/ABR) backups could be easily RECYCLEd, not to mention ease of backup process. Of course HMS should be implemented in advance, so this is not an advice for this case. For this case I would suggest two approaches: 1. WAIT. Start using new tapes for new backups and wait - old backups will expire. he longer you wait the more backups expire. 2. Remaining dumps (or everything if you don't want to wait) can be COPYDUMPed without affecting BLKSIZE or restored on dasd with RENAME. The last option involve manual process of changing names, at least at HLQ level, but manual (non-HSM) backups do require such knowledge. BTW: Are you sure the blocksize on 3590 is 229360? The largest blocksize available on Jaguar is 256kB. BLKSIZE LIMIT (forgot the keyword) can be up to 2GB, but it is theoretical (system software) limit. SCSI reference of Jaguar specifies that blocksize can be up to 2MB. So, if your blocsize is really 229360, then you don't need to reblock the dumps! -- Radoslaw Skorupka Lodz, Poland -- BRE Bank SA ul.

Re: Question about COBOL Program

Then use a QSAM file on z/OS and a VSAM-managed SAM (MSAM; aka SAM-ESDS) on VSE. We just moved from VSE to z/OS last year. We used MSAM fairly extensively. No need for those awful EXTENT statements that are required by SD files. Of course, alternatively you could use VSAM ESDS instead of sequential on both VSE and z/OS.

Re: Change the Summertime ZOS under Z/VM
To change the local clock, which really just adjusts the offset from the hardware clock, use the T CLOCK=hh.mm.ss command. If you want to change like from standard time to daylight savings time, it's even easier (example is US Central) T TIMEZONE=W.06 for standard time or T TIMEZONE=W.05 for daylight savings time. This assumes the hardware clock is set to UTC (GMT). There is __NO__ command to change the actual hardware clock in z/OS. Some have said that if you set the clock backwards, you need to IPL. I will say that we do not do this! We don't have DB2. We do have CICS. For each CICS region, after changing the clock in z/OS, enter the CICS transaction: CEMT PER,RESET If you have the z/OS consoles defined to your CICS region, you can do this with a MODIFY command: F cicsreg,CEMT PER,RESET This is how we do it. In fact, it is done by running a batch job which issues the commands.

Re: Help with ADJSSCP
George I know I have a response outstanding regarding your keep-alive problem, but I just spotted this. I seem to be the only list contributor dealing with VTAM matters so I don't expect I'm taking the pleasure away from anyone else by trying to deal with it immediately - although I'd be delighted to know that I was - and all are invited to try to work out what I may be meaning with that! - Actually the first point that comes to mind is why are you asking this question because anyone who has been through usual VTAM subarea networking education and worked with it should know all about the famous 087D sense code, its various modifiers ands and IST663I messages and what they imply. This reeks to me of a let go where the suits have decided that their VTAM systems programmer was superfluous to requirements and has been allowed to spend all his time on the golf course or supporting the football team at away matches - or equivalent pursuits for a lady. - Now looking at the names of the LUs in this failed session setup, I see that the origin LU (OLU) is FLANWR41.CICSPRDT which looks like a CICS system and the destination LU (DLU) is one of your TN3270 APPL statements (for external users), FLANWR41.TELNE21E This implies that CICS is trying to initiate a session with the TN3270 APPL statement which is *not* usual. Usually, it is the TN3270 APPL statement which is trying to initiate a session with CICS. Note the message IST264I REQUIRED ADJSSCP TABLE UNDEFINED which, in conjunction with the IST663I message with sense code 087D0002, is saying that, the SSCP (VTAM) has a session setup request from an OLU destined for a DLU which can't be satisfied in the home domain - because the required DLU is not defined - or is inactive. Thus it needs to send the session setup request to other, away, SSCPs (also known in this context as CDRMs) (VTAMs) and, to do this, it sends the request sequentially following the order defined by the adjacent SSCP table defined for the DLU, which, if it doesn't already exist, can be a default list for the home network, as defined by the network identifier (NETID) - assuming we don't have an SNI configuration, which in this case we don't since the NETIDs are the same. However, you don't have a suitable home network adjacent SSCP table available maybe because you haven't actually got any other, away, systems running VTAM connected with subarea links to your home system which can be used to build a dynamic adjacent SSCP list under control of the DYNASSCP start option specified as DYNASSCP=YES, the default. All of which is consistent with the messages you see - assuming two things: 1. TELNE21E is not active 2. You have specified, perhaps by default, the DUPDEFS start option as DUPDEFS=APPL or DUPDEFS=ALL, the default. I had a look at the explanation of the DUPDEFS start option and there is a bit of a confusing comment under DUPDEFS=APPL. I think this means that what I have described is likely to be valid only because you have defined your TN3270 APPL statements as a *model* APPL statement - which, because of your other thread, still ongoing, I know is as follows: TN3270A VBUILD TYPE=APPL TN3270G GROUP EAS=1 TELNI??? APPL TELNE??? APPL Well, as it should be now after my previous comments! I think this means that the DUPDEFS start option is then irrelevant since the LU name corresponding to the APPL statement is known only when it is active - which leaves only 1 from above. Perhaps you can explain what is causing this session setup attempt, which, as I said, looks odd and we can take it from there.

Re: Help with ADJSSCP
Hi Chris, When You made the comment, this reeks to me... you have no idea how true of a statement that is and when you mentioned the usual VTAM education, I would say, what education? I can't even remember the last time I was in a Systems Programmer class... Let me give you what I have in my ATCSTR00 member: SSCPID=06, HOSTSA=06, MAXSUBA=31, CONFIG=00, IOINT=0, DYNASSCP=YES, DYNADJCP=YES, NETID=FLANWR41, SSCPNAME=PAL6CDRM, IOBUF=(500,182,19,,16,71), LPBUF=(64,), LFBUF=(400,), CRPLBUF=(1300,), BSBUF=(1,), SPBUF=(36,), TIBUF=0, AUTHLEN=NO, ENCRYPTN=NO, TNSTAT,CNSL,TIME=60 Although I have coded DYNADJCP=YES, is option when displayed is N/A as it's used only for APPN nodes.

I have no idea what is causing the problem, I just know that the Operator noticed them coming up on SYSLOG and sent me an email... It could be that I took something out of my ATCCON00 that I need.

Re: Help with ADJSSCP
Chris, I think I can help. I ran across a similar issue a while ago. CICS is configured to reestablish a connection when it sees a abnormally terminated session such as the user closing a TN3270 window. The behavior is governed by CICS settings. I used to work with a certain awesome CommServ/CICS guy that indicated that the trouble is most likely the CREATESESS(YES) on the TYPETERM definition. When the terminal is autoinstalled, CICS will issue a message indicating what TYPETERM was used. Check the MSGUSR message DFHZC6935I for the details. If the TYPETERM has CREATESESS(YES) specified, then CICS will attempt to reestablish the connection after the initial auto-install of the terminal has been done. Normally, CREATESESS(YES) is used for things like printers to allow CICS to initiate the session. Of course VTAM is just doing what is normal and trying to be helpful but to no avail.. since no one is on the other side anymore. There is also the possibility of a customized Node Error Program. I am supplying a link for why a Node Error Program might be used. http://publib.boulder.ibm.com/infocenter/cicsts/v3r1/index.jsp?topic=/com.ib m.cics.ts31.doc/dfha3/dfha357.htm Rob Schramm And special thanks to a Mr. Eades -Original Message- From: IBM Mainframe Discussion List [mailto:IBM-MAIN@bama.ua.edu] On Behalf Of Chris Mason Sent: Friday, February 18, 2011 10:29 AM To: IBM-MAIN@bama.ua.edu Subject: Re: Help with ADJSSCP George I know I have a response outstanding regarding your keep-alive problem, but I just spotted this.

Then use a QSAM file on z/OS and a VSAM-managed SAM (MSAM; aka SAM-ESDS) on VSE. We just moved from VSE to z/OS last year. We used MSAM fairly extensively. No need for those awful EXTENT statements that are required by SD files. Of course, alternatively you could use VSAM ESDS instead of sequential on both VSE and z/OS. I know that z/OS shops prefer QSAM to ESDS in general (or so I've been told), but ESDS certainly is an option.

SYSREXX - From the console
Hello fellow mainframers,
Working on setting up SYSREXX. Here are my AXR00 parms:
CPF('RX',SYSTEM)
AXRUSER(AXRUSER)
REXXLIB ADD DSN(SYS1.SAXREXEC)
We setup the AXR, AXR01-08 STC and the AXRUSER with the appropriate
SURROGAT as documented.
My challenge is that I have a very simple REXX in SYS1.SAXREXEC. I want
it to be run with the AXRUSER Userid. When I invoke it from SDSF via
/RX my-rexx it has my Userid. When I do it from a console that is
logged on I get the console Userid and when I issue it from a console
that is not logged on I get USERID() = *. I chatted with a friend in
Europe and he said his comes back with the Userid of the STC. Except
for my Europeans friends results, it seems to me that any REXX that is
invoked via the F AXR or cpf is invoked with SECURITY=BYUTOKEN.
Any and all help is as always greatly appreciated.

Re: HYPERPAVs
The aliases should be bound to the base only for the duration of the IO. So if a base needs one, it will be pulled from the pool of that control unit and bound. Once it is not needed, the alias is returned to the pool. The best way I've found to monitor usage is via RMF device resource report. You would see something like this: RMF V1R11 Device Resource Delays Line 1 of 27 Command === Scroll === CSR Samples: 100 System: P505 Date: 02/18/11 Time: 14.46.40 Range: 100 Sec Volume S/ Act Resp ACT CON DSC PND %, DEV/CU Service USG DLY /Num PAV Rate Time % % % Reasons Type Jobname C Class % % A7026A S 1.5 102 23 7 PND 72 33903PAVRDWT2 S SYSSTC70 39 4150 42HCMR 62 2107 PAVRDWT2 S SYSSTC72 38 The PAV count for HyperPAV is described as the following: If the device is a HyperPAV base device, the number is followed by an 'H'. The value is the average number of HyperPAV volumes (base and alias) for that interval. To see the aliases via Devserv, you would have to issue the command right when the aliases are bound.

ASC mode is determined by PSW bits 16 and 17, and tells the system where to find the referenced data (the data referenced by the address in the GPRs). When ASC mode is secondary, SAC is 256 and you are in cross memory mode. And the data resides in the secondary address space.

I am working on the resolution of exceptions produced by the recently activated Health Checker feature on a Z/OS 1.10 system. Specifically the following 2 checks: CHECK(IBMRACF,RACF_TAPEVOL_ACTIVE) Check Severity: Medium IRRH229E The class TAPEVOL is not active. Explanation: The class is not active. IBM recommends that the security administrator at your installation activate this class and define in it the profiles to properly protect your system. CHECK(IBMRACF,RACF_TEMPDSN_ACTIVE) Check Severity: Medium IRRH229E The class TEMPDSN is not active. Explanation: The class is not active. IBM recommends that the security administrator at your installation activate this class and define in it the profiles to properly protect your system. I am contemplating activating both of these resource classes but have no immediate plans for using them in any profiles. My concern is that the activation of these classes will in itself cause me problems. Any experiences or insight would be much appreciated.

Re: RACF Resource Classes
Whether or not to activate the TAPEVOL class is a business practice decision, not a technical one. We have never done so and most likely never will because of changes that would be imposed on the client community for dubious benefit. Extensive use of generic profiles and our tape management software provide extra layers of protection that render TAPEVOL less important. We also run without TEMPDSN, but I can't say why. . .

Re: RACF Resource Classes
TAPEVOL class will have to be researched within your shop to make sure you don't break something by mistake. If you wish to implement, you can put in in warning mode and then see what is accessing.

Re: RACF Resource Classes
Hi Dennis, We have been running with TEMPDSN since the mid 1990's.I do recommend just like the IBM health check that you run with this enabled. A couple caveat's TEMPDSN is a logical switch so when you activate that class new access control is automatically enforced for temporary data sets. Unlike some classes it is the act of activating the class that that matters there are no profiles to define. You should plan to do this just before an IPL Changing the rules in the middle of the game can be confusing. You should treat it like a system change including implementing it first in any less critical LPARs/Sysplex that you have and doing change notice for others information and your own protection should it break something someone cares about. While it is not likely to cause you a problem some OEM products may not work correctly with TEMPDSN and this is a global switch so there is no way to exempt some impolite utility or software which has been built by an ISV with incorrect assumptions and not tested in an environment with RACF TEMPDSN active. Over the years we have reported defects and gotten fixes from many ISV's. I won't bother listing the ones older than one year. In the last year CA-MSM 3.0 deployment feature only no problems with basic service retrieval and installation product aspects and BMC IMS database recovery plus were both found to have issues. For the BMC IMS database utility issue PTF BPQ4956 has been written with a minimum requirement of PUT1002A and is available from BMC now. For CA-MSM deployment we have tested a field tested a solution methodology and the development team is in the process of building it into a proper fix and getting it QAed. RACF is a great place for advice on setting RACF options and implications http://www-03.ibm.com/systems/z/os/zos/features/racf/links/racf-l.html TAPEVOL depends on what tape management system you have and some other tape related security options in RACF and your tape management system. IBM and CA tape and RACF experts have always provided good advice often on IBM-MAIN and RACF-L much more useful than anything I could add. Search the archives and best discuss it with the vendor whose tape management system you use. I won't recommend to activate or not to activate that class but rather make sure you completely understand the tape security you have today and any gaps and what the implications are of enabling additional tape security. If you use CA-1 (TMS) open a ticket or better yet get them to do an MVP review (best practices checkup it's free) and they can give you a complete recommendation. If you have DFSMSrmm or some other post here and maybe contact the vendor. Again treat any changes in this area the same way you would any other system change. YMMV so checkout anything you plan do and be completely comfortable in your decision on what to configure on your system. I hope that helps. Have a great weekend!

Re: Change the Summertime ZOS under Z/VM
What John said. I used to IPL for the backslide. It's not needed anymore for CICS and there is an command for Adabas also. Don't know about DB2. I don't know what I get from the Adabas reset as all protection logs use the hardware clock without the offset. None of this applies if you're unfortunate enough to still run wilt hardware clock set to local time.

If you want to change like from standard time to daylight savings time, it's even easier (example is US Central) T TIMEZONE=W.06 for standard time or T TIMEZONE=W.05 for daylight savings time. This assumes the hardware clock is set to UTC (GMT). There is __NO__ command to change the actual hardware clock in z/OS. Some have said that if you set the clock backwards, you need to IPL. I will say that we do not do this! We don't have DB2. We do have CICS. For each CICS region, after changing the clock in z/OS, enter the CICS transaction: CEMT PER,RESET If you have the z/OS consoles defined to your CICS region, you can do this with a MODIFY command: F cicsreg,CEMT PER,RESET This is how we do it. In fact, it is done by running a batch job which issues the commands. This job is a normal part of our schedule and so is done automatically for us. -- John McKown Systems Engineer IV IT Administrative Services Group HealthMarkets(r) 9151 Boulevard 26 * N.
