Re: Help with deleting datasets which are not cataloged or don't exist.

2008-10-09 Thread Heloisa
First you need to check all the components. The LISTCAT is listing the BCS. 
You should list the VVDS of the volume where the DATA and INDEX 
components are located. Check if the entries are there and if they point to 
the right catalog. Also, using 3.4 and specifying the VOLSER, see if the 
datasets are there (if they have DSCB-1). The commands to be used depend 
on what you find.
This is a sample job to list the VVDS:
//DEFFIL01 EXEC PGM=IDCAMS,REGION=2M  
//SYSPRINT   DD SYSOUT=Q  
//DDVVDS  DD 
DSN=SYS1.VVDS.VSMSV01,DISP=SHR,AMP=AMORG,UNIT=SYSDA, 
//VOL=SER=SMSV01  
//SYSIN  DD * 
   PRINT   INFILE(DDVVDS) SKIP(000)   
/*

Where you must replace all SMSV01 with your volser.

Re: Data set's lost

2008-06-13 Thread Heloisa
First you need to list the VVDS to see in what Catalog it was expected to be. 
If it is the correct one (found by the ALIAS), then just run a DEFINE 
RECATALOG and then DELETE. If it is pointing to the wrong catalog, you might 
have problems because since z/OS 1.7 the system does not like it when you 
try to point to a Catalog. Then you could use IBM's program to fix the VVDS.
The program is called VVDSFIX, but I don't remember how I got it.
This is how you list the VVDS:
//DEFFIL01 EXEC PGM=IDCAMS,REGION=2M 
//SYSPRINT   DD SYSOUT=Q 
//DDVVDS  DD DSN=SYS1.VVDS.Vnn,DISP=SHR,AMP=AMORG,UNIT=SYSDA,
//VOL=SER=nn 
//SYSIN  DD *
   PRINT   INFILE(DDVVDS) SKIP(000)  
/*

I hope this helps

Re: SETPROG LNKLST--problem or procedural error?

2007-05-31 Thread Heloisa
When I'm replacing a library on the linklist, I first remove it from LLA. I 
believe 
most people define LIBRARIES(-LNKLST-)  and FREEZE(-LNKLST-) on their 
CSVLLA and that could cause a problem.

Re: VTOC FULL

2007-05-17 Thread Heloisa
ICKDSF Release 17 can expand a VTOC. I've never tried though.
This is what the manual says:
//SYSIN DD * 
REFORMAT DDNAME(VOLDD) VERIFY(TMP121) EXTVTOC(200) EXTINDEX(16)

The example above expands both VTOC and VTOC INDEX.

Re: 1.4 to 1.7 Experiences?

2006-08-15 Thread Heloisa Soares
I had some minor RACF related problems, but nothing bizarre. One was 
related to dumps. I could not get any dump because we did not have these 
profiles defined under FACILITY class:
IEAABD.DMPAKEY
IEAABD.DMPAUTH
The other problem was DB2 related. We had class DSNR defined but it did 
not have a generic profile or profiles for DB2 commands. Because of that, 
I could not issue any DB2 commands.Even the install SYSADM had no 
authority.

I really recommend you read these documents:
Z/OS Migration (from Z/OS V1R4)
http://publibz.boulder.ibm.com/zoslib/pdf/e0z2m13a.pdf

z/OS V1R7.0 Introduction and Release Guide

and the Migration Considerations for Z/OS R7 presented by Marna Walle 
([EMAIL PROTECTED])

If your site has lots of JES2 exits, you'll have some work to do because 
JES2 has new exits. 
For JES2go here: 
http://www-
03.ibm.com/servers/eserver/zseries/zos/installation/zos17_jes2_migration.ht
ml

Remember to install the compatibility/tolerance PTFs on your Z/OS 1.4 if 
it the 1.7 will be on the sysplex.

I hope this helps,

Re: DB2 Problem Urgent

2006-05-10 Thread Heloisa Soares
Jacky

   This group is for MVS. I believe there is a DB2 group that would be 
more helpful.
If you want to bring all the databases and DB2 catalog up to the point 
when it went bad, you do need all the archived logs.
The best way to recover DB2 is with image copies and archived logs. Volume 
copies do not bring DB2 to a consistent point. You may have to do a 
Conditional Restart. Get your DBAs and DB2 support together.
DB2 Administration Guide and DB2 Utility Reference Guide are good 
references.

Good Luck,

Heloisa

Re: OSA-ICC and Slow Consoles

2006-04-20 Thread Heloisa Soares
We had this problem and we solved it changing the configuration of the OSA-
ICC card. Using the HMC console, under Single Object = Advanced 
Facilities = Channels = Card Specific Advanced = Session Configurator, 
we changed Response Mode to DISABLE. 
Here is the explanation from book SA22-7990 OSA-ICC User's Guide:
RSP (Response Mode): indicates whether response mode is enabled or 
disabled. If enabled, the host waits for the client to send an 
acknowledgement on the Telnet level for every packet that is transmitted. 
This enables the user to check for bad LANs, poor performance, or other 
issues. 

However, we also noticed that sometimes an operator command is lost. It 
seems to happen if he hits enter at the exact instant an action message is 
being displayed. We are not sure.

I hope this helps.

I see nothing on the JES2 queues for this address space.  I have checked
the WebSphere logger data, the WebSphere server1/logs filesystem, and EREP
and cannot find any reason for this.  It was working on Friday and we
cannot identify the change that has caused this.  I noticed the X33E SLIP
trap being met following the end of BBOS001, but turning it off doesn't
produce any additional information.  I don't know LE, but tried adding the
TRACE(ON,LE=3) parm to the BBOCTL program, but that didn't provide any
results. The system dump datasets are empty.

I can unmount the /WebSphere/V6R0 filesystem to force a JCL error and I
tried creating a new WAS config file system.  I can run this JCL as a job
until I fail on a security issue.

Any ideas?

Thanks,
William

I don't know what this task does and I have not seen the JCL, but some of
them have a DD statement like STDERR that point to an HFS file and an
error message (if there was an error) is placed there.

Just a thought.
