You could go to ISMF Option 1 (dataset) and see what it generates to do this for you. I use this method to see what DFDSS control cards ISMF would generate to move datasets from one volume to another. I always use SPHERE whenever VSAM is involved. The use of sphere will not impact copying non-vsam datasets. Could you let us know what files were not deleted and left on the original volume? We would need to have more specific information to try and help. Or if you could provide the output from the DFDSS job along with a vtoc print, that would be very helpful. How many datasets are on the original volume. How many were copied. How many were deleted? How many were left? I have always seen DFDSS provide W type messages whenever it could not do something. That you are not seeing messages is very strange. You may need to turn on a DFDSS trace in the job stream. But I would look for ADRW messages in the output. They may have an RC0 but a warning message is provided. I had to write a REXX to filter the output of my DFDSS jobs so I could find the W/E/S messages. Otherwise they were easily over looked.

Re: DB2 Performance
As others have pointed out, the DB2 governor will let you kill threads that have exceeded some arbitrary amount of CPU time. There's obviously pluses and minuses to that. Using WLM you can age those long-running queries so they drop to a low enough importance that they don't substantially get in the way of anybody else. (Well, depending on how you set it up and how much you're willing to penalize those queries.) However, even discretionary work that is running because nothing else needs the CPU right now can drive up your R4H and may impact either your software costs and/or how quickly you reach your caps. If that work was unnecessary because the user gave up on the query after 5 minutes, then that was a shame and it maybe would have been nice for the governor to have killed that thread before it ran for 2 hours. But I'm not sure that you can readily do so without impacting other threads that maybe really do need to run that long. Be aware that the recent IBM PTF that allowed for 60% DDF offload really changes the way DDF work runs on the zIIP and GCP. Previously the generosity factor for the DDF threads was set to 55% and SRM moved the enclave back and forth between the GCP and the zIIP. After that PTF, DB2 marks 3 of every 5 (or maybe 6 of every 10) DDF enclaves as being 100% offloaded and the remainder 0%. (Effectively, I'm not exactly sure exactly what they're doing under the covers.) While this might average out to 60% of the CPU work offloaded over time, the less homogeneous your workload is the more likely that any particular interval will show a signifcant variation from that value. So if you have large user queries coming in that use significant amounts of CPU time, there's a 40% chance that that will now run entirely on the GCP instead of running 45% on the GCP resulting in a possibly significant increase in the CPU utilization during that interval. Finally, if you're running knee-capped GCPs (less than full speed), your users will likely perceive a noticable variation in run times between executions of the same query--because sometimes they run on the slower GCP and sometimes they run on the faster zIIP. The bigger the discrepency between the GCP and zIIP speed the bigger this potential runtime difference. As you might tell, we're not real happy with that PTF. It works well for homogeneous workloads, but where you have a mixture of large and small queries, how lucky or unlucky you are with the large queries in any given period will determine how happy you are in that period. My guess is that having a mixture of transaction sizes is more normal and where you have adhoc user queries, likely some of those are large to very large. But if you just recently started having problems with your DDF, and if you believe the queries haven't changed you might look to see if you just recently applied that PTF (PM12256 I think?). -- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to lists...@bama.ua.edu with the message: GET IBM-MAIN INFO Search the archives at http://bama.ua.edu/archives/ibm-main.html

Re: ZCIOWAIT message
Hi, While I don’t have access to Tmon, I am amazed that it doesn’t display the Dispatcher Task Summary Table the same as Omegamon does. This display is fundamental to any CICS monitor as this gives a list of all the tasks that are currently dispatched. This table displays all the Tasks currently dispatched in CICS (both System and User) and both the Resource type and Resource name for each task. These two 8 byte fields are taken from each Tasks DTA (Dispatcher Task Area) and these live in the Dispatcher Domain. I would consider that when you get your problem, issue a CEMT PERFORM DUMP. Then load the dump into IPCS and issue a VERBX command of DS=1 This should give you the Dispatcher Task Summary Table and from there you can see what your tasks are waiting on.

There is a Resource Name which defines what this type of Resource is. For example if the transaction is in Conversation mode and waiting for a response from the User, then the Resource Type will be ZCIOWAIT and Resource Name will be DFHZARQ1 which is CICS VTAM Terminal Control Application Request handler. Effectively the User has issued an E C SEND WAIT If the Resource Type is ZCIOWAIT and the Resource Name is DFHZARR1 this is a Receive within LU6.2 protocol, a Receive is waiting on more data to be sent. If the Resource Type is ZCIOWAIT and the Resource Name is DFHZERH1 this is when there is a need to handle the sending and receiving of FMH7s (Function Management Headers) and negative responses within LU6.2. This may have something to do with a Security failure. There are other ZCIOWAIT reasons. The Resource Names are given in Omegamon and Tmon. They can also be found in a CICS Trace as well as a dump. The CICS/TS Problem Determination Guide has all the Wait reasons for ZCIOWAIT The CICS/TS Diagnostic Guide lists the Resource Types and Resource Names and the modules that get invoked when these conditions occur.

This display is fundamental to any CICS monitor as this gives a list of all the tasks that are currently dispatched. This table displays all the Tasks currently dispatched in CICS (both System and User) and both the Resource type and Resource name for each task. These two 8 byte fields are taken from each Tasks DTA (Dispatcher Task Area) and these live in the Dispatcher Domain. I would consider that when you get your problem, issue a CEMT PERFORM DUMP. Then load the dump into IPCS and issue a VERBX command of DS=1 This should give you the Dispatcher Task Summary Table and from there you can see what your tasks are waiting on.

There is a Resource Name which defines what this type of Resource is. For example if the transaction is in Conversation mode and waiting for a response from the User, then the Resource Type will be ZCIOWAIT and Resource Name will be DFHZARQ1 which is CICS VTAM Terminal Control Application Request handler. Effectively the User has issued an E C SEND WAIT If the Resource Type is ZCIOWAIT and the Resource Name is DFHZARR1 this is a Receive within LU6.2 protocol, a Receive is waiting on more data to be sent. If the Resource Type is ZCIOWAIT and the Resource Name is DFHZERH1 this is when there is a need to handle the sending and receiving of FMH7s (Function Management Headers) and negative responses within LU6.2. This may have something to do with a Security failure. There are other ZCIOWAIT reasons. The Resource Names are given in Omegamon and Tmon. They can also be found in a CICS Trace as well as a dump. The CICS/TS Problem Determination Guide has all the Wait reasons for ZCIOWAIT The CICS/TS Diagnostic Guide lists the Resource Types and Resource Names and the modules that get invoked when these conditions occur. They will give you more information about where you are and why your waiting. Colin Pearce -Original Message- From: IBM Mainframe Discussion List [mailto:IBM-MAIN@bama.ua.edu] On Behalf Of ???

Re: strange RSH behaviour
My first suspicion is almost always a firewall issue, very rarely would I suspect z/os. Some firewalls will step in and actively block by pretending to be the remote host.

SMP/E CSI record layout
Hello, does anybody out there have an idea where I can get a description of the SMP/E record layout within a CSI dataset. Especially I'm looking for a unique identifier which describes the TZONE entry records within a targetzone. Up to now I thought, that all these records have hex 010300 on pos 5 just before the 7-char zonename, but now I found that 070300 is although possible and I would like to know why and if other setting are although possible.
