Re: Automatic response fail on Console
Hi, We stopped supporting the free version of AUTO several years ago. There are quite a few problems with the old version that have been fixed and enhanced. The older version works under z/OS 1.10 for most (if not all) of the limited features it had, so you are probably just missing something critical. The new version is available at a reduced price to IBM-Main participants, but if you describe your problem with the old version I can try to help you through it.

Re: Automatic response fail on Console
saurabh, Seems you think that the failure of the reply is the issue, but I would prefer to think of the WTOR as the issue. Why was it issued and what can be done to avoid it . then you dont need to make a reply at all - something I would much prefer. So, what is the message? exact message number and text please. You mention that RMM backup is started. Which backup method is used? I would hope it is EDGHSKP with PARM of BACKUP(DSS). This is one of the non-intrusive ways to backup the CDS.

Re: Automatic response fail on Console
Thanks for reply. We do not use any product for scheduling. We just use free scheduling procedure. We are using z/OS 1.10 system running. The program which we use is called AUTO and is available in SYS2.PROCLIB(AUTO).

It's just that the system seems to think the wrong console is in effect. This process works on most other systems but I am not able to find difference.Can somebody help me to fix this issue.

OPS/MVS, System Rexx, MPF List exit??? 3) What invokes your SMFDUMP process 4) On the systems it works, how is the process set up? 5) On the system that does not work how is the process set up? 6) What is used to dump SMF? IFASMFDP, SMFUTIL, SMFDUMP programs? 7) Is the SMF DUMP process submitted by a scheduling product or as a Started Task or as a Batch Job? 8) What I the RMM commands that you use? Do you mean all RMM auto backs will not run until this reply is answered? The more details about your environment we have the better we can review your issue. Not all shops run SMF the same way. So it is difficult to understand what your shop does.
