Re: SMP/E datasets question
Luckily this isn't z/OS. It's a couple 3rd party products. I do apply to both target zones. The only library with members is SCDS. Does that mean that I'm only potentially in trouble if I need to do a RESTORE? Luke -Original Message- From: IBM Mainframe Discussion List [mailto:ibm-m...@bama.ua.edu] On Behalf Of Joel C. Ewing Sent: Monday, March 15, 2010 11:19 PM To: IBM-MAIN@bama.ua.edu Subject: Re: SMP/E datasets question If you have done SMP/E apply against both target zones, then there is no guaranteed fix. For example, if there are members in MTS or STS that both target zones think they own, ACCEPTing the maintenance in one zone will move those members into the appropriate DZONE DLIBs and remove them from MTS or STS (might be some options to prevent the delete, not sure), and a latter attempt to accept related sysmods in the other target zone wouldn't find the members. If you only do SMP/E maintenance against a test target zone, then clone the Tzone and TLIBS to install in production and never use SMP/E for APPLY/ACCEPT/RESTORE against the production clone TZone, then you don't really have a problem because the libraries at issue are only used during maintenance (possibly could/should delete their DDDEFs in the production Tzone in this case). If you use SMP/E to APPLY to both target zones, then there would always be the risk of unintentionally doing things out of order in a way that SMP/E would think legit but that could cause corruption because of the shared target datasets. If you have been doing SMP/E APPLY to both target zones and accepting maintenance for an extended period while running with MTS/STS/LTS/SCDS shared, depending on what usage was made of the shared datasets and the order in which things were done, you could already have corrupted members in some of your TLIBS and DLIBs. Perhaps not, but actually proving the absence of adverse side effects would be very difficult: The only sure method is to start with a fresh install and re-apply to the current level of maintenance. If you use SMP/E to APPLY to both target zones and are in the resulting unknown SMP/E status and don't have the resources for a z/OS re-install, I would be tempted to clone separate copies of the existing MTS/STS/SCDS/LTS libraries for the other target zone, hope there has been no serious damage yet, and gamble that things hang together long enough until a migration to the next release of z/OS, where you can then be sure to observe correct practices with the new zones.

Having a network qualified destination LU name is the key to being able to distinguish one route over topology subnetwork borders over another route in the Border Node. I used to teach SNI but unfortunately I didn't retain the documents of the presentations I used to give for SNI - except one, the Alias application.[1] Well, I had a look at this and I found the following in the notes to setting up the *real* name for a destination LU (DLU): quote A Real Name and Real Network NETID can be provided by CDRSC definition specified under a NETID statement if there are no name conflicts. An Alias Name, using a CDRSC definition not specified under a NETID statement or dynamic, can be assumed to be a Real Name by the GWSSCP just before issuing the RNAA request, again, if there are no name conflicts. If there are name conflicts, either the ALIAS application or the Session Management Exit must be used. The attempt to discover the Real Name and Real Network NETID can be made either at a GW or GW-Capable SSCP on the OLU side of the network boundary or in a GWSSCP on the adjacent side of the network boundary. /quote OLU = originating LU Note the can be provided by CDRSC definition specified under a NETID statement. Maybe I haven't forgotten how to convert a non-network qualified LU name into a network qualified LU name! And now I'm about to get adventurous! In other words this is not what I know but what I may be able to read between the lines in the manual. Note the talk of GW or GW-capable SSCP. Let's have a look at the GWSSCP start option. quote GWSSCP start option ... Specifies that an SSCP can be a gateway SSCP. If you code GWSSCP, the SSCP can still process CDRSCs defined with the NETID operand. /quote Note the process CDRSCs defined with the NETID operand. Could it be that, if GWSSCP is not specified as YES, VTAM refuses to pay attention to CDRSC definitions with a NETID specified? Maybe you need to have gateway logic enabled in VTAM in order to be able to have the destination LU qualified by a NetId using the definition I gave before. Note that I'm not now quite sure about the NQNMODE operand so try it with and without and see if the display of the CDRSC gets network- qualified. In order to enable gateway logic, you will need to specify GWSSCP=YES and SACONNS=YES and, maybe, specify something for HOSTSA. I don't expect that will do any harm to anything else. What intrigues me about all of this is that, back in the days when I used to teach SNI, getting a Real NetId assigned was a big deal. There must have been a way to do it and those notes in the Alias presentation just must be correct since this was such an important point. The big deal was having to persuade VTAM to decide what the Real NetId was so close to the network of the originating LU in the case where you wanted not to have to specify some definition to decide it - a CDRSC as I'm now pretty certain it must be/have been. Now with your border node configuration, the Real NetId is also being decided - somewhere. It might be interesting to track the destination LU in your business partner's network in your network, the intermediate network and the destination network in each of the VTAMs through which it passes in order to see with which NetId the LU is qualified at each stage. That would mean a display of that LU/CDRSC in each of the VTAMs. It's an important point in all of this - a point to which the NQNMODE operand relates - that an LU has an alias identity and a real identity, this being something permitted within the SNA search requests. I used to know all about this in SNI but maybe there's an interesting story also in the APPN

but by specifying LOGAPPL=MYNET.MYAPPL on the CDRSC. As I said, we're in sandbox mode now! Chris Mason [1] I handed my SNI class - two weeks with other really interesting advanced VTAM topics! - to some colleagues who set up a one week SNI class - and I expanded the two weeks class to exclusively interesting VTAM topics plus fun stuff such as the 3708. However, I retained the Alias presentation for my class because - well - it was a bit complicated for my colleagues! This explains why I still have the presentation material.

Obviously if it is now more than 0, the request is sent. That explains why SNVC=1 limits you to your native subnetwork and SNVC=2 allows just one subnetwork border to be crossed. - Well, I hope that's a starting point! Let us know how you get on.

What it should say is the following: quote FLDTAB -- | | ---FLDTAB=---table_name---| | | -NONE- Specifies whether VTAM uses a message-flooding prevention table to suppress duplicate messages and, if so, which table will be used. FLDTAB=NONE Indicates that VTAM will not suppress duplicate messages that are sent to the operator console or system hardcopy log. FLDTAB=table_name Indicates that VTAM uses a user-specified message-flooding prevention table to determine which duplicate messages are to be suppressed. table_name is the 1-8 character name of the table stored in the VTAM definition library (VTAMLST). If an attempt to load the specified table fails, VTAM issues an error message and uses the VTAM internal table. If you specify neither a table name nor NONE, VTAM will use an IBM-supplied table located in VTAMLIB which has the name ISTMSFLI. This is an internal version of the message-flooding prevention table which has the name ISTMSFLD which can be found in the distribution library (SAMPLIB). Notes: 1. If you issue a DISPLAY ID=ISTNOP command and the IBM-supplied message- flooding prevention table is in use, the name of the table will be shown as ISTMSFLD. 2. If you wish to indicate the IBM-supplied message-flooding prevention table is in use in the specified start options, you may specify FLDTAB=ISTMSFLD but you should also ensure that the table is copied from the distribution library (SAMPLIB) to the IBM definition library (VTAMLST). /quote I have been meaning to submit this correction to the VTAM folk - and I may get around to it yet - particularly after your experience. The following notes are intended to go along with this suggested corrected text: quote Comments: 1. Just try specifying FLDTAB=ISTMSFLD and see what sort of a mess you get into!!! 2. If you specify ISTMSFLD as the table name, VTAM will use the IBM- supplied table located in the VTAM definition library. is plain wrong since we have already established that the VTAM definition library means VTAMLST and ISTMSFLD cannot be found in VTAMLST without a manual copy. 3. What happens when the supposed default FLDTAB=ISTMSFLD is specified by not actually specifying anything is that VTAM quietly uses a pre-digested version of ISTMSFLD - called ISTMSFLI - located in VTAMLIB. /quote So if you want to use the MODIFY TABLE command to revert to the supplied table, you need to copy the ISTMSFLD member from SAMPLIB into your VTAMLST. I discovered this because I was advising a customer for whom I was doing some consulting by supplying him with a set of start options which included any possibly relevant to him. This included FLDTAB=ISTMSFLD,[1] supposedly the default specification - as currently specified in the manual and as you indicate with your DISPLAY VTAMOPTS output - and we got an error message saying something like your IST116I message, basically I'd love to load the table you specified but I just can't seem to find it! - sorry - wildly anthropomorphising as I used to in order to try to keep my students amused! Well, red faces, of course. This highly paid - a matter of opinion! - consultant has fallen down on the job - again! Sufficiently stung, I looked into what had gone wromg and came up with the improved text for the FLDTAB start option above. Reputation restored, ordure redirected to the hopeless manual authors - phew! Chris Mason [1] And indeed, we did discuss how to use the message flooding table in order to suppress repeated appearances of a message may have been difficult to eliminate any other way. Thus it was handy to have the standard table copied to a marginally more accessible library.

In addition, you are already participating in border node behaviour. The adjacent topology subnetworks to which you are connected must already be performing border node functions. You participle in that, when you initiate a session with an LU in one of the adjacent topology subnetworks, you search each of the adjacent Network Nodes which appear as End Nodes - which have allowed themselves to be searched - to your Network Node. Also, when an LU in one of the adjacent topology subnetworks initiates a session with an LU in your topology subnetwork, the search emerges from one of the Network Nodes adjacent to your Network Node although the search appears to be coming from an End Node. When you change your Network Node also to appear to be a border node, and with BNDYN=FULL, processing in your network won't change at all. The main reason is that your have only one Network Node and so the logic affecting searches hasn't any chance to be any different. There may be some effects in the adjacent topology subnetworks so you should inform all your partners that you are making the change so they can look out for changes - although there shouldn't be any problems. The more you add Network Nodes to your topology subnetwork and the more these Network Nodes also become border nodes, the more you will need to get to grips with the implementation of border node architecture in VTAM. If you'd like to have some reading to give you greater confidence in what you are already doing and how this is changed when you come clean and admit your Network Node really is a border node, you can check out Chapter 6.

The media was idential, but the virtual tape server rejected tapes with an internal SL label in the z/OS volume serial range. A complexity is that our only tape drives were located within a tape robot, which thus required a couple of extra setup steps. 1) Tape librarian selects a set of tapes, and sends me the list of serial numbers. 2) I update CA-1 to set the data set name of the scratch tape to a name I pick using the following TMSUPDTE control cards: VOL 123456,SCRATCH,UNEXPIRE TM FLAG1=04 REP DSN=TEST.VTS.V123456,EXPDT=2008/234 3) I tell the tape librarian to enter the tape into the robot. 4) I run the following JCL: //INITPROC VOL='' //STEP01 EXEC PGM=IDCAMS //SYSPRINT DD SYSOUT=* //INPUTDD DUMMY,LRECL=80,RECFM=FB,BLKSIZE=80 //OUTPUT DD DSN=TEST.VTS.VVOL,UNIT=400,VOL=SER=VOL, // LABEL=(1,NL),DISP=OLD,LRECL=80,RECFM=FB,BLKSIZE=80,RETPD=6 //SYSINDD DSN=TEST.CNTL(REPROCTL),DISP=SHR //* REPRO INFILE(INPUT) OUTFILE(OUTPUT) // PEND //PROC01 EXEC INIT,VOL=123456 //PROC02 EXEC INIT,VOL=234567 etc... 5) I eject the newly-initialized tape volumes from the robot, and ask the librarian to pick them up. Notes Step 2 is necessary because our tape robot does not allow specific mounts of tapes in scratch status. By changing the scratch status to non-scratch in CA- 1, when the tape is entered into the robot, it is automatically marked as a private tape in the robot. Step 2 also prepares for the recreate of the tape data set. By telling CA-1 that the data set name is the name I've picked, I can recreate that data set as a zero block file using IDCAMS REPRO in step 4. At the completion of step 4, the internal SL label is replaced by a tape mark, and the tape is now NL.

Re: SMS construct pgm name
I'm not sure about sFTP + TECTIA, but if you set the FTP environment variable _BPX_JOBNAME, every time an FTP session is started the job name will be what you've set it to. Then you should be able to compare using JOB.

Currently we have a fall thru test for pgm = BPXPRECP but I think that's the exec() program, not just FTP? Of course we have the various flavors of FTP, FTP port 21, sFTP (ported tools) and TECTIA, but I assume that shouldn't make a difference?

Re: TN3270 server OBEYFILE processing?
I think this is what you need: V TCPIP,tn3270procname,O,dsname If you omit the TN3270 procname, TCPIP won't like it and you could get syntax errors and this message: EZZ0209I TELNET SERVER CONFIGURATION STATEMENTS IGNORED IN TCPIP Luke -Original Message- From: IBM Mainframe Discussion List [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Pat Mihalec Sent: Friday, March 14, 2008 10:48 AM To: IBM-MAIN@bama.ua.edu Subject: Re: TN3270 server OBEYFILE processing?

Check me on this, please. I split out the TN3270 server from the TCPIP address space a month or two ago, and now I have a need to modify it. I'd like to do that on-the-fly, and the IP Configuration Guide suggests that I can. My concern is that there is no such thing as: V TCPIP,,TELNET,OBEYFILE,dsname but rather V TCPIP,,OBEYFILE,dsname still seems to be available. If I enter that OBEYFILE command, feeding it the TN3270 TelnetParms and BeginVTAM blocks, will the TCPIP address space attempt to fire up an internal TN3270 server? Or does it already understand that there's an external TN3270 server running, to which it'll pass the OBEYFILE commands under the table? I hesitate to try this out live, so I'd appreciate some advice from someone who has been there. -- David Andrews A. Duda and Sons, Inc.

You can use the Policy Agent.
