I'm not sure what you are asking or what you are saying is incorrect. LISTCB 
will display the TCB for the program you are testing which is what you see in 
R15. Obviously it should not be the TCB where LISTTCB is running which is 
PSATOLD.

Re: Compiled rexx fails on readfile

2014-02-01 Thread Jon Perryman
When you have an error in a SYSCALL command, you should display RETVAL, ERRNO 
and ERRNOJR. I think it's ERRNOJR that you can use with BPXMTEXT to see help 
information. ERRNO is a generic error number type. RC is even more generic.

As for your problem, it's with the parenthesis. They represent variable 
substitution. I can't remember if it's REXX or UNIX environment variables. 
Either use the parenthesis or REXX variable substitution but not both because 
you don't have a variable defined with the file name string.

Re: Re : JES2 / TCP/IP Network Printer Definitions....

2014-02-01 Thread Lizette Koehler
I am not sure if JES2 can print to a Ricoh Aficio MP2851.  Though I will
admit I have not kept up with JES2 and printing functions for a while now.
So it may be possible, I am just not sure.


I would suggest opening up an SR with JES2 and see if this will work.
Typically I have had something else that interfaces with JES2 and the
printer.

Or maybe someone on the list with more knowledge of JES2 printing to Ricoh
can assist.  Or contact Ricoh and see if they know if you can print from
JES2 thru the NETSRV to their printer.

You could also try posting to the JES2 newsgroup.  They are more focused on
JES2 and maybe able to help.

Typically JES2 is very limited in what it can print to and products like VPS
and INFOPRINT have filled in the functions JES2 could not provide.

The considerations are data streams, Ascii/Ebcidic, fonts, Twains, etc...

OA19215: INCORRECT DOC FOR DEFINING NETSRV USERID TO OMVS

The Defining a NETSRV sub-section is contained within the the Special

read:

  Special considerations for TCP/IP NJE
  Controlling TCP/IP NJE networking is similar to controlling
  SNA networking. In addition to VTAM, it is necessary to start

  In particular, you must set the TCPCONFIG MAXRECVBUFRSIZE

  set them to a value of 32768 or higher.

  The NJE/TCP implementation also supports virtual IP
  addresses (VIPA addresses), and the use of sysplex

  There is no additional JES2 setup to take advantage of

Correct. As I mentioned earlier the OP will have to account for multiple levels 
of tasklibs, working up the TCB tree, and basically duplicate all the same 
searching the system did (and in the same order) to find the module in the 
first place.

(And as I mentioned to the OP off-list, after the fact he can never be sure 
that he's getting the same results the system got, anyway, as he can't account 
for a LOAD or ATTACH that DCB= and he can't account for modules having been 
added to or deleted from libraries since the system loaded the module he's 
interested in.)

Re: Re : JES2 / TCP/IP Network Printer Definitions....

2014-02-01 Thread Jim Thomas
Ma'am,

The physical device is  Ricoh Aficio MP2851 and no ... I have not verified
anything ... I was merely asked to set it up for 
people to be able to print to it via JES2 / Mainframe.

While I do know that there are 3rd party software out there, sadly, I do not
have any ... to me... it should be very simple
to be able to define a printer for LPD or anything else. JES2 merely giving
the functionality of DEST= and such. All I'm 
(literally) trying to do is use JES2 for data transport. 

I am also the RACF group (sigh) ... so I once again thank you for your
assistance and attempts to help. For now, I'll read 
thru the APAR that you've sent me.

If I may, I'd be happy to let you know of my progress / outcome.

Kind Regards.

tymshare was one of the virtual machine-based online commercial
service bureau ... among other things they made their online
computer conferencing system available free to *SHARE* starting
in aug1976 ... vmshare archives
http://vm.marist.edu/~vmshare

they also wrote a capability-based 370 operating system GNOSIS ... a
major objective was to do detailed accounting for detailed user use of
3rd party applications, databases, files, etc ... to be able to remit to
the 3rd parties, pro-rated revenue based on user use of each resource.

in the 80s, M/D bought tymshare and spun off a number of things,
including GNOSIS (into new company key logic). I was brought in to
audit/evaluate GNOSIS as part of the spin-off. It turns out all the
accounting in the capability boundary crossing was using 30% of the
processor.

After the spin-off, they removed all the 3rd party accounting from the
capability interfaces that significantly speeded up things. They were
able to show KeyKOS (aka GNOSIS) running various kinds applications
faster than IBM's TPF ... and with significantly higher security than
any other operating system.

The high level capability abstraction allowed a lot of performance
optimization that isn't possible in traditional operating system ... and
at the same time significantly increased the performance. It is too bad
that they weren't able to interest any IBM mainframe customers. However
a number operations have taken the KeyKOS/GNOSIS design and moved them
to other hardware platforms ... aiming for EAL7 level security ... *AND*
high performance.

Note that capability was part of the IBM Future System design ... but
done in the hardware which resultetd in horrible performance (no
benefits of higher level abstraction optimization). A major factor in
performance analysis that 370/195 applications run on an FS machine made
from 370/195 components would have throughput of 370/145 (factor of
15-30 times slowdown), which contributed to its eventual failure
http://www.garlic.com/~lynn/submain.html#futuresys

Capabilty was also part of the IBM's s/38 (folklore that after FS
failure, some FS people retreated to rochester and did the s/38). The
as/400 which was combination of s/38 & s/36 followon dropped the
capability stuff.

trivia ... this particular application had couple decade history (at the
time some 450k cobol statements) and a dedicated performance group of
possibly 100 people. the issue was that they had gotten quite myopic in
the techniques they used for looking at performance and throughput
... including lots of low-level hotspot.

the science center in the 70s used numerous techniques, system modeling,
hot-spot, multiple regression analysis, simulation, workload profiling,
etc. turns out the 14% was in a macro characteristic that wasn't evident
in the low-level hotspot micro-level (but represented a couple hundred
million savings because of the large number of mainframes involved).

A long time ago, in a lab far far away, IBM made a (possibly erroneous) 
decision when CPU was expensive to not measure everything. The rough guideline, 
so I was told was it took 4-8000 instructions to measure an event. So, anything 
under 20K was not worth it (again, I'm quoting what I was told from [old] 
memory).
Also, at the time, no console activity measured (ie: operator commands).
Some things changed when SMF Typ30-6 waw introduced (System Address Spaces).

Ma'am,

I see no error's on NETSRVn during startup and no, I did not create an OMVS
segment for NETSRVn. 
Didn't quite realize I needed one but will check / read up on it now.

Yes .. that was the first thing I checked and yes, they are all paired.

re:
http://www.garlic.com/~lynn/2014b.html#78 CPU time
http://www.garlic.com/~lynn/2014b.html#80 CPU time

note accounting ... but performance ... for ecps microcode assist,
originally for 138/148 ... we were told that the machine had 6kbytes of
available microcode space ... and 370 kernel instructions mapped
approx. 1:1 in no. bytes into microcode instructions ... and we were to
find the highest used 6k bytes of vm370 kernel.

two approaches were done ... modification of 370/145 microcode to sample
the psw address and increment a counter for the corresponding address
range (had counter for every 32bytes). the other was special vm370
kernel was built that generated time-stamp at entry and exit of every
module (intra-module paths could be time between calls to other
modules). this is old post with the results of this ... 
http://www.garlic.com/~lynn/94.html#21 370 ECPS VM microcode assist

which showed the highest 6kbytes of kernel code accounting for 79.55% of
kernel execution time.

note that in the early 70s, the science center 
http://www.garlic.com/~lynn/subtopic.html#545tech

had done something similar to the microcode monitor but with a software
full instruction simulator ... which tracked every instruction executed
and every data fetch and every data store. a application was then
written that took all the addresses and did semi-automated program
reorganization optimizing for running in virtual memory paged
environment ... and of course ... it could also be used for hot-spot
identification. A lot of the internal development groups began using it
as part of the transition to 370 virtual memory operation. It was also
released as a product in 1976 as VS/Repack.

I did a special data collection for VS/Repack ... a vm370 kernel option
that would run an application in 10 real pages and record virtual page
faults. The granularity wasn't as good as full instruction simulation
... but it ran significantly faster and was nearly as good for the
purposes of program reorganization for paged environment.

note that the science center besides doing virtual machines, the
internal network (also used for bitnet), inventing GML (which morphs
into SGML and then HTML) ... also did extensive work on performance
montioring, performance tuning, system modeling and workload profiling
... which then morphs into capacity planning.

One of the system models was an APL system analytical model which was
made available on (world-wide sales&marketing support) HONE called the
"performance predictor" ... customer SEs could provide customer system
and workload characteristics and then ask what-if questions about what
happens if the hardware and/or workload was changed.
http://www.garlic.com/~lynn/subtopic.html#hone

somebody in europe obtains the rights to a descendent of the
"performance predictor" in the early 90s (in the period that the company
had gone into the red, had been reorganized into the 13 "baby blues" in
preparation for breaking up the company) and had ran it through a APL to
C-language translator. I run into him last decade doing consulting work
at large mainframe financial datacenters (operations with 40+ maxed out
mainframes, billion dollar+, machines constantly being upgrade, none
older than 18m ... these operations account for major portion of annual
mainframe revenue). I had found 14% improvement in application that ran
every night on 40+ maxed out (MVS) mainframes (the number of machines
sized so the application finishes in the overnight batch window).

re:
http://www.garlic.com/~lynn/2014b.html#78 CPU time

it may not be reproducible because of things like cache effects
... which would affect hardware monitors also. its not a software
monitor issue ... it is whether the kernel diligently does the clock
operations for every piece of work.

MVS (and vm370) gets total cpu busy by clocking in and out of wait state
and subtracting it from elapsed. however vm370 does that also for every
other thing it does also ... so all the accounted for time plus wait
state time should come up to elapsed time (there may be tiny slop doing
the clock instructions ... or if PR/SM underneath is doing something)

the detailed MVS capture ratio discussions imply that MVS isn't even
bothering to do the clock accounting for large parts of the kernel (and
in some cases has been as high as 60%).
