When an HDD fails, the data is replicated to a spare HDD, and our CE extracts the failed

There are two approaches:

1. Negotiate with a vendor that all the replaced disks will not leave
your datacenter. It can be quite cheap when you negotiate it during
purchase, and quite costly when you already have purchased the array
(CATCH YOU!).

2. Get some paper from the supplier. A document which states, that all

your disk will be secure all the time (you don't nwo whether it's true).
In both cases supplier takes the responsibility.

Re: HOWTO question: Linking non-XPLINK C with a shared object (.so) library

2011-07-13 Thread Miklos Szigetvari


Hi

Don't understand why do you want to link together XPLINK and NON XPLINK 
code, and not call the DLL

The boundary for XPLINK  NON XPLINK code is a DLL, so a DLL is XPLINK or not
In  SHARE there was a number of very good presentations about the DLL's 
and XPLINK

Subject: HOWTO question: Linking non-XPLINK C with a unix shared object

I am trying to figure out how to link a plain C module, non-XPLINK, with an 
IBM-supplied shared-object (= DLL, right?).  This is the IEWAPCCC example in 
the Program Management Advanced Services manual.  IBM provides (at release 
1.12) sample JCL for an XPLINK compile, bind and execute, but no JCL for a 
non-XPLINK compile, bind and execute.  The XPLINK sample works just as 
documented, but I would like to have non-XPLINK access to these services, so 
I'm trying to get the example working as a non-XPLINK program.

I have the compile working using the EDCCB PROC from IBM (compile and bind, 
non-XPLINK) with options LONGNAME and GOFF added for the compile.  However, 
using the IBM-supplied IMPORT statements for the non-XPLINK shared library code 
('/usr/lib/iewbndd.x') still leaves me with unresolved external references for 
all of the binder API entry points, even though the IMPORT statements get no 
errors.

I tried creating a copy of the IMPORT statements and adding the '/usr/lib' 
directory to each IMPORT request; IBM's copy says, for example:

IMPORT CODE,'iewbndd.so','__iew_addA'

So I changed them all to look like this one:

IMPORT CODE,'/usr/lib/iewbndd.so','__iew_addA'

But that did not help.  I also tried adding a DD statement with 
PATH='/usr/lib/iewbndd.so' to the end of the binder SYSLIB DD concatenation, 
but that's a no-no that gets you a specific complaint and an RC=12 from the 
binder.

TIA for anything you can do to help cure my ignorance.

Re: HOWTO question: Linking non-XPLINK C with a shared object (.so) library

2011-07-13 Thread Leopold Strauss


Hi.

I would suggest, that you try to understand 
language-environment-functionality and the way, how XPLINK works.


In the meantime you can be sure, that it is simply not possible to do 
that, what you want.


The boundary is simply a loadable object ( either exe-file or DLL, and 
independent, if PDSE- or USS-file). Mixture is not possible.

How many legs does a dog have, if you call a tail a leg?

Four - just because you call a tail a leg does not make it a leg.

No, in general it is matter of definition. My English is poor, but let
me present another example, as off topic as dog's one:
A car. In my country, Combi (Wagon) car is named in folders as 5-doors
car. Hatchback is also 5-doors or 3-doors. Does anyone use the tailgate
as a doors?

Definition of leg is common and quite well specified/understood. For
ages. Definition of programming language is not and IMHO it could evolve
significantly during last 40 years.
Last, but not least: since we talk about PROGRAMMING language that means
there are non-programming (but computer-related) languages.
