Re: Disappearing Proc Parm

2010-12-21 Thread Ron Wells
use different name for symbolic in proc...like dest1=hp9050





From:   Tom Trainor thomas.j.trai...@exxonmobil.com
To: IBM-MAIN@bama.ua.edu
Date:   12/21/2010 03:10 PM
Subject:Disappearing Proc Parm
Sent by:IBM Mainframe Discussion List IBM-MAIN@bama.ua.edu



When I start the following proc (first line only shown)

//SGPTSTP  PROC MEMBER=LOCAL,DEST=LOCAL,INDEX=SGPTST

...with the following console start command

s sgptstp,member=hp9050,dest=HP9050,msgclass=q,msglevel=(1,1) 

the following is the o/p in the JESJCL DDNAME:

 1 //SGPTSTP  JOB MSGCLASS=Q,MSGLEVEL=(1,1)
 2 //STARTING EXEC SGPTSTP,MEMBER=HP9050
 3 XXSGPTSTP  PROC MEMBER=LOCAL,DEST=LOCAL,INDEX=SGPTST

Note that, in line 2, the DEST parameter is missing.  I have tried this a 
hundred times and the dest=HP9050 parm is NEVER passed in and so 
symbolics further down in the SGPTSTP proc are ALWAYS LOCAL, i.e. 
the default as set in the first line of the proc.

Please do not recommend using another name for this parm as the proc 
is called by a number of different programs all of which have DEST= 
hardcoded in them and the command is then SVC34ed.

Is there something SPECIAL about DEST= in a catalogued procedure?

Ron,
Not sure if I completely understand what you are asking.   Do you mean is 
the 
WTR on the SYSOUT parm on an output DD required?   No.  Ours are all set 
up 
so that the batch job just picks up everything in class I,  and finds the 
report 
ID based on row and column in the output.

It looks like the input phase can be run as a started task, but you would 
have 
to have a scheduler or something start the task periodically, it doesn't 
have a

The  value is set via SETROPTS NJEUNKNOWN. It represents the 
non-ownership of NJE jobs and sysout. It can not be set to an actual RACF 
UserID or group.

RACFVARS RACLNDE - is a bypass of translation. Putting a JES (or RSCS) 
node in RACLNDE prevents any substitution of NJE information. Only add 
the LOCAL JES node to RACLNDE.

The RACF NODES class is used to allow, as well as translate or adjust NJE 
ownership. If you wish to take the AS400 sysout and assign a valid owning 
UserID, use the following profiles:

RDEF NODES as400node.USERS.*  UACC(CONTROL) ADDMEM(otherid) 
RDEF NODES as400node.GROUP%.*  UACC(READ) ADDMEM(DFLTGRP)

as400node - replace with the actual NJE node name for the AS400
otherid - replace with the local UserID you want to own the sysout.

The GROUP% profile is not necessary if you have already defined:
RDEF NODES *.GROUP%.* UACC(READ) ADDMEM(DFLTGRP)

 The  value is set via SETROPTS NJEUNKNOWN. It represents the 
 non-ownership of NJE jobs and sysout. It can not be set to an 
 actual RACF 
 UserID or group.
 
 RACFVARS RACLNDE - is a bypass of translation. Putting a JES 
 (or RSCS) 
 node in RACLNDE prevents any substitution of NJE 
 information. Only add 
 the LOCAL JES node to RACLNDE.
 
 The RACF NODES class is used to allow, as well as translate 
 or adjust NJE 
 ownership. If you wish to take the AS400 sysout and assign a 
 valid owning 
 UserID, use the following profiles:
 
 RDEF NODES as400node.USERS.*  UACC(CONTROL) ADDMEM(otherid) 
 RDEF NODES as400node.GROUP%.*  UACC(READ) ADDMEM(DFLTGRP)
 
 as400node - replace with the actual NJE node name for the AS400
 otherid - replace with the local UserID you want to own the sysout.
 
 The GROUP% profile is not necessary if you have already defined:
 RDEF NODES *.GROUP%.* UACC(READ) ADDMEM(DFLTGRP)

The  value is set via SETROPTS NJEUNKNOWN. It represents the 
non-ownership of NJE jobs and sysout. It can not be set to an actual RACF 
UserID or group.

RACFVARS RACLNDE - is a bypass of translation. Putting a JES (or RSCS) 
node in RACLNDE prevents any substitution of NJE information. Only add 
the LOCAL JES node to RACLNDE.

The RACF NODES class is used to allow, as well as translate or adjust NJE 
ownership. If you wish to take the AS400 sysout and assign a valid owning 
UserID, use the following profiles:

RDEF NODES as400node.USERS.*  UACC(CONTROL) ADDMEM(otherid) 
RDEF NODES as400node.GROUP%.*  UACC(READ) ADDMEM(DFLTGRP)

as400node - replace with the actual NJE node name for the AS400
otherid - replace with the local UserID you want to own the sysout.

The GROUP% profile is not necessary if you have already defined:
RDEF NODES *.GROUP%.* UACC(READ) ADDMEM(DFLTGRP)

Ron,

Are the libraries listed in the linklist on the two LPARs different?  It
sounds to me as if you have a bogus IEFBR14 in the one linklist.  I'd
check the libraries in the linklist on the LPAR where it is failing,
starting with the first library in the list, to verify that.

Before issuing the PRINT command click on Print on the action bar and
select 1. Print open sysout.  (I'm assuming here that you do have the
action bar displayed at the top of each SDSF panel.)  You'll be presented
with the SDSF Open Print panel.  There are fields for CHARS (the UCS 
field),
and Pagedef and Formdef.  The values you put in those fields with be used
for any PRINT command you issue until you issue a PRINT CLOSE.

You can try XDF to copy it to disk and then do with it what you want

SDSF-PRINT

2010-05-27 Thread Ron Wells
ok---lets try this again

I have a report...sitting on jes2..
I view it in sdsf...select it (S)
I issue a PRINT 1100 1200 capturing 100 lines and producing another 
sysout..(naturally with my id as job name)
My problem is  original report has a CHARS/FORMDEF/PAGEDEF...
The new report I just generated does not. has nothing so report will not 
print correctly unless I manually go in an alter it.
 is there a replacement for PRINT (giving me option capture or include 
those fields) or a means to carry over the CHARS/FORM-PAGEDEF's on the 
report I just generated...

or

maybe someone has already wrote something (rexx-clist) to do this and 
willing to share...

thanks

Subject:Re: PSF IBM 6500 printer
Sent by:IBM Mainframe Discussion List IBM-MAIN@bama.ua.edu



The 6500 supports up to a 17-inch wide form (16-inch print width). The 
number of 
characters depends on the form size and the font pitch. For example, using 
a 13.3 pitch 
font (D224) you can get 212 characters. The 6500 uses symbol sets 
(hard-wired fonts), 
so you can use only the fonts in the printer. In Draft or DP quality, 
fonts are available in 
pitch 10, 12, 13.3, 15 and 18. 

You only need PSF Exit 8 if you are using the Line Mode Migration 
function, which converts 
FCBs to PAGEDEFs on the fly. Even if you do use Line Mode Migration (PSF 
Customization, 
S550-0427-02, Chapter 28. Line-Mode Migration), using a PAGEDEF will 
override the Line 
Mode Migration function. 

Whether or not you use an FCB or a PAGEDEF, you can choose the font using 
the CHARS 
parameter in the // OUTPUT JCL statement or on the printer PROC. You must 
use one of 
the fonts defined in the printer (see Chapter 19. Supporting Resident 
Fonts in the PSF 
Customization book and table 167 in Printer Information, S544-5750-02). If 
you don't need 
special formatting, you can use one of the supplied PAGEDEFs (PSF User's 
Guide, S550-
0435-02, Appendix B. Page Definitions Supplied with PSF).

Some fonts depend on the print quality level. You can control the print 
quality (lower 
quality, faster printing) using one of the supplied FORMDEFs, detailed in 
the Line-Mode 
Migration chapter.

Ron

I'll try to get back to you on this - and whatever else you that may be 
concerning you - when I have a chance.

Meantime, in order to discover what MTU size applies to what type of 
interface, you should use the famous Figure 1, Summary of DEVICE and LINK 

statements in the z/OS Communications Server IP Configuration Reference 
manual - where, you will discover that the value for IPAQENET with Gigabit 

Ethernet is 8992.

Be careful changing the MTU size. Most routers can handle the 1500, but
larger MTUs may be fragmented into small chunks. I believe there was a
discussion on this list about MTU size and if I remember correctly
someone said(it may have been Chris Mason) that if the router isn't
configured correctly that it would reject the larger MTU size packet.
You might want to search the archives before you change MTU size.

Hello world! 

 

I am trying to setup a mini system, and during IPL, I have met JES2 start

correct the error, but still no result. 

It would be great appreciated if any comments!! Thanks in advance.

 

The joblog during IPL looks:

All the datasets referred in Jes2 proc are cataloged in Master catalog by
using IDCAMS listcat. 

SYS1.SHASLNKE has listed in PROGxx, and APFed. 

Storage volume has been specified in VATLSTxx. 

Both null SMS configuration and none SMS environment have tried.

Both VLF, LLA, DLF, RACF has started. 

 

From IEF677I, it seems system found some error and used a system default.
But where is it? Can we got some additional message from other ways? 

Thanks for your time.

Anyone here can help on a form/page definition...?

The first pagedef looks at a field in the record and determines what

problem is there is always a blank(last page) being printed??

Re: Real CPU Id

 __thought__ (and was wrong) that I was pointing out where the CPUID 
might not be the real one.
I assumed the OP wanted the CPC's Real CPU Id as opposed to one set, 
under z/VM, to some other value via the CP SET CPUID command.
I.e. I was trying to point out a hole.

I wasn't really criticising, and if I came across that way, I appologise.

But, even under PR/SM there are differing serial numbers per LPAR.

The first two (of 7) are based on the LPAR and the LP.
The last 5 match the last 5 of the physical serial number.

Most vendors followed IBM's recommendation, many years ago, to license 
based on just the last 5.

I only know of one ISV, based in Islandia New York, that made you install 
multiple keys on multiple CPC's, based on all logical serial numbers, thus 
making admin a real pain.

The main thing is with the printer definition in JES2.  The work selection 
criteria needs to have the Form as a criteria that must be matched 
exactly.  That is done by moving it before the '/'.  The default is

(W,Q,R,PRM,LIM/F,UCS,FCB)

You need

(W,Q,R,PRM,LIM,F/UCS,FCB)

Also, make sure SETUP=HALT.  You can make the changes with the $T PRTxx 
command or SDSF.

Yeah, specify the same KEYRING in your FTP configuration, that you use in
the TLS configuration.

I'm not so sure that it's the best idea to use the same exact cert, but
plenty of shops don't care about design since it's only used in these one

two contexts.

The old system wouldn't have been able to handle that change is utter
bull$h1t.  More believable (and probably more correct) might have been
something like The cost in both time and money to implement that change
in the old system would have been prohibitive.

Or become a contractor to IBM yourself.  Then you can try to make a profit 
by offering your subcontractors considerably more than Veritas does. 

If IBM is trying to drive down the price of Sysprogs and they succeed, 
then they will have reduced the total cost of ownership of a mainframe 
system to a mainframe customer, and perhaps they will be able to sell more 
mainframe systems that way.

So if I remember what contracting companies do 
IBM charges one rate. Then a company like Veritas Solutions is contracted 
by IBM and then they have to pay even less because they need to make a 
profit.  Which is probably why the hourly rate is SOOO   LW

So the best action is to deal directly with IBM and not its 
subcontractors.

Itschak,

Have  you seen IBM's 'LOOKAT' facility?

http://www-03.ibm.com/systems/z/os/zos/bkserv/lookat/ 

There's a downloadable package for running  it under TSO/E.  I've used it 
in 
the past when working at sites that do not have QW and it's a viable 
substitute.

Ron,

To make sure I understand, you currently have OWNMEMB designated one way 
and
now you want to change the name.

So you have in JES2 Parms
On First System you might have
MASDEF OWNMEMB=SYSA
On Next system you might have
MASDEF OWNMEMB=SYSB
On Next system you might have
MASDEFOWNMEMB=SYSC

Now you want to change the names on all of these to something else?

First - I don't think you can blank out the OWNMEMB name.  To do change 
the
OWNMEMB names, you might have to do the following

Change all of your JES2 parms to then new OWNMEMB names across the board.
Also make sure your MEMBER= parms are updated if needed.

Bring down ALL systems at the same time.  A JES2 WARM start only happens
when all systems in the JES2 MAS are down.  Then IPL one system.
After it is back up, then IPL the rest.  If even one system is still 
active
in the MAS at IPL time then it will be a HOT or QUICK start.

I would do an OFFLOAD of your spool just in-case there are any problems - 
if
you have to cold start, then your spool data is safe.

Lizette

Obviously given the lack of support for 64 bit, the failure to implement 
64 bit addressing so COBOL can run nicely in 64 bit Websphere, the 
failure to implement USAGE BIT, the failure to implement the IBM pushed 
decimal floating point, the failure to implement IEEE floating point 
using the 2002 COBOL STANDARD floating point usages, it is obvious COBOL 
is seen as a cash cow to be milked until phase-out.
--unsnip---
I can't agree with that conclusion. Having examined compilers and 
libraries from OS/360 with an eye toward 31-bit addressing, I can tell 
you that the changes atr non-trivial and could get very expensive very 
fast. For all we know, the changes you ask for may be already in the 
works, but updating a compiler and all the associated library 
subroutines can get very involved very quickly, especially when downward 
compatability is still an important feature.

Another possibility is that the offload dataset is RECFM=U. When 
downloaded to a non-z/OS system, even in BINary, the physical record 
boundries are lost. So when it is re-uploaded to z/OS, ftp doesn't really 
know where one physical record ends and another one is supposed to begin.

I have ftp'ed RECFM=U successfully, but only by using the QUOTE STRU R

Can you dump the current header? 

You can then either compare it to a new one that you generate, or send me

I don't think Java(TM) would be Java(TM) without zFS (or something very
much like zFS). A Zip file (i.e. Jar file) could be that very-much-like 
zFS
thing. (More on this in a moment.)

I'm a little confused, though, so perhaps the original poster can clarify.
When you install the SDK for Java, it installs into zFS (or HFS). (A 
myriad
of products require zFS or HFS, actually, and the number keeps growing.)
zFS is where the Java runtime, compiler, class libraries, etc. live. Is
that an issue? Or are you (also?) talking about running a Java program out
of the non-zFS side?

If the latter, does the standard // syntax work with the java command 
(e.g.
from OMVS), to reference a Java program and/or class path on the non-zFS
side? (I've never tried that.) If not, maybe that's something you could
raise with IBM as a suggested enhancement to the SDK, and why it's an
important feature to have.

I'm completely confused by the mention of Linux. If you have z/OS, setting
up Linux (an entire operating system, and even ignoring operational things
like monitoring, backup, DR, etc.) just to run a Java program is easier
than setting up zFS (an intrinsic base z/OS feature)? Really? I think 
Linux
is wonderful too, but that would be a mighty strange planet, right?

Can you (or others who have similar requirements) be more specific as to

For example:

What linkage conventions and addressing modes do you required?
What types of parameters (data areas) would be required?
Error (exception) handling requirements?

Examples would be helpful.

What I recv'd back from Pgm'r..


yep, the 8 char limit would be a huge limitation to building a class 
structure, but then again, we've been working with 4 char program names on 
SCORE for who knows how long... i'm sure we would come up with a nice 
convention for naming.

my desire is to execute everything solely within the TSO environment. 

so rather than writing my code and putting it in a jar file on HFS, and 
then in my batch job doing something like this:
//XA344JVA JOB (6000),'AARON DUNLAP',CLASS=B,MSGCLASS=S, 
//MSGLEVEL=(1,1),NOTIFY=SYSUID 
//* 
//SA20 EXEC PROC=JZOS, 
// JAVACLS='jabs.replication.upload.TASUploadMF', 
// ARGS='file:/u/eeepc/apps/config/mf/upload.properties' 
//STDENV DD *
...

 I want to do something like this:

//XA344JVA JOB (6000),'AARON DUNLAP',CLASS=B,MSGCLASS=S, 
//MSGLEVEL=(1,1),NOTIFY=SYSUID 
//* 
//SA20 EXEC PROC=JZOS, 
// JAVACLS='XA344.PDS.JAVA(TESTCODE)', 
// ARGS='A.P1.CM.ZZ.BRCH.PARMLIB(MYPARM)'  
//STDENV DD *
...

within the context of the class structure of java, this might not make 
much sense though...

FWIW, Java already has a mechanism for launching a Unix executable 
(binary,
shell script, REXX script) as a child process, where stdin/stdout/stderr 
can
be piped into the child process.   It is not difficult to create a REXX
shell script in the HFS filesystem that loads and executes MVS load 
modules.

Calling MVS load modules directly from Java (in the same process) is 
another
matter, and that is what I thought you were asking about earlier.

at this point only interested in tcpip/tn3270 and have the smfid of the 
system being displayed..

VTAM and TCPIP handle the screens differently if the manuals can be 
trusted. 
The two manuals are SC31-8776 z/OS Communications Server IP Configuration 
Reference, and z/OS Communications Server SNA Resource Definition 
Reference. 

Both manuals describe the USSMSG macro. Both specify that if you want to 
dynamically substitute certain values such as LUNAME, HOSTNET, SENSE, 
SSCP name, etc, then y6ou have to code the USSMSG macro with the SCAN 
operand. Then, in the area defined by BUF1, you can code any of the 
supported symbols. Because some of the symbols, such as sense code and RU 
name, can only be supplied when the message is being displayed, VTAM and 
TCPIP must be scanning the message for symbols and replacing them at that 
time.

MSG10  USSMSG  MSG=10,BUFFER=(BUF1,SCAN)

BUF1DC   AL2(length of buffer)
  . . .
   DC   C'---WELCOME-@@SSCPNM'
  . . .

The IP reference, however, also indicates that you can use system symbols, 

whereas the SNA reference does not. SO, if this USS table is being loaded 
by 
TCPIP/TN3270, then you may be able to use system symbols. But, if the 
table 
is loaded by VTAM, then you may not.

The IP reference also makes a vague reference to how the assembler handles 

the ampersand symbol. It indicates that you must code double ampersands in 

your 'DC' instruction in order to get a single ampersand in the assembled 
code. 
That is correct.
