Side comment on this discussion about; Remember, auditors can only advise. They cannot compel. On What Planet are you ON? Okay, maybe they do advise, but every time I have worked with Auditors directly or indirectly, my MANAGEMENT has taken their word as LAW :-) So I have had to do some ridiculous things for the Auditors! I really do not have any good suggestions for your problem. My current setup we have all the SMPe data sets under a unique prefix and service is received, applied accepted in these data sets. I run a copy job that copies and renames the data sets to build an IPL volume and it's secondary volume. In my last job we had a full SMPe setup for EACH LPAR (there were about 50 of them) which had 2 sets based on the primary SYSRES volume and some of the data sets would contain that volume serial name. Each time we did service, we ran a copy job that copied, renamed data sets and used SMPe UCLIN statements to make changes to DDDEF's. I unfortunately do not have a copy of that JCL, it was a little complicated.

Or, install ab ovo and APPLY selectively -- I can do that hourly during development testing (but it's a small product). VMSES/E makes this easier by having no analogue of a DLIB zone.

Re: setting up a new, improved SMP/E environment
Gil, In the scenario you mention below, there would be 3 different DLIB zones, so the PROD DLIB wouldn't be at a higher level than the PROD TARGET zone. If it were me I wouldn't bother with having 3 DLIB zones, I would have a single DLIB and not do any ACCEPTs until after the maintenance was applied across all the target zones. Like you, I don't especially care for not being able to back a PTF out once it has been accepted, but I guess that's part of the downside of trying to remain backwards compatible until the invention of the wheel. :-) Hence my backing up of the entire environment before doing an accept.

The above reads If the box is called BIG-SKIP and the LPAR is called MY-TOY, then set SYSNAME for this LPAR on this box to SKIPEROO Here SYSNAME is hard coded, but it could also be a string of previously defined symbols if you wanted to show off your mettle. ;-) . . .

Re: Unload DB2 table in CSV format
I posted it on the DB2 list some days ago, and if you don't mind, I post it here, too, because it's the same topic. ad I am selling a product running with DB2 and Oracle DBs, that generates CSV files from SQL results. It runs on almost every platform (mainframe, Unix, Windows). CSV is one of many output formats; others are flat files, XML, and other proprietary formats, which contain not only data, but meta data (like datatypes), too. It is possible to work the other way, too, that is, load DB2 data from CSV files (and the other formats, too, of course). You can trigger insert statements from the data in the CSV files, or updates, or deletes ... any kind of SQL statement that modifies the DB. (You specify the SQL, together with a file description, is necessary, that is: if the file does not already contain the needed meta data). In combination, it is very easy to do database migrations and database schema changes using this tool. I've done this many times for different customers. Please feel free to contact me offline, if you are interested. /ad The mainframe variant of this product is z/OS batch, and it runs very fast. No need to inserts tabs or commas in a second step ...

Re: setting up a new, improved SMP/E environment
Al, Many years ago I had an auditor question me on everything. I ran an SMPE job that produced many many hits in audit. I decided the best way to show him exactly what I was doing was to take the listing (in my case 6 boxes of paper) and explain everything that was going on and why I got hit with an audit. After 3 hours he called you need to have this without question I didn't mind it too much but I got him off of my back for good.

I really do not have any good suggestions for your problem. My current setup we have all the SMPe data sets under a unique prefix and service is received, applied accepted in these data sets. I run a copy job that copies and renames the data sets to build an IPL volume and it's secondary volume. In my last job we had a full SMPe setup for EACH LPAR (there were about 50 of them) which had 2 sets based on the primary SYSRES volume and some of the data sets would contain that volume serial name. Each time we did service, we ran a copy job that copied, renamed data sets and used SMPe UCLIN statements to make changes to DDDEF's. I unfortunately do not have a copy of that JCL, it was a little complicated.

Resolve any issues. Repeat until clean. 2) Migrate MAINT to DEV, and age for x days. Resolve any issues and return to step 1. 3) migrate DEV to PROD. If 3 separate zones target zones are really required, they should be part of the migration process. SMP/E has commands to facilitate migration of the zones. The alternative is to run the apply/accept 3 times (once for each zone). Remember, auditors can only advise. They cannot compel. HTH, snip We need to improve our SMP/E practice, and I am fishing for ideas - for audit requirements, we need 3 separate target zones for our MAINT, DEV and PROD environments - my idea would be to have 4 targets including a W.I.P. one where I can apply the very latest maintenance before deploying it.

Re: Unload DB2 table in CSV format
With my tool, you can choose the delimiter by parameter (some like semicolon instead of comma, because in some European countries the comma is used instead of decimal point to separate the decimal fraction - tab is possible too, of course), and char fields are enclosed into quotes (or apostrophes), if necessary. ExCel etc. deal with all this, it's tested. Furthermore, you can choose if you want column headings or not. If you have column headings (derived from the SQL result), you can later use those headings to reference your columns, if you use the CSV to do updates on the DB again. If not, you have to specify the numeric position of the column ... in any case, you have to tell the tool the data type in this case, because it does no pre scan of the file, as ExCel does. But this is for the load situation only; for unload, it's as easy as unlddn csvhead := unload qualif.db2table; or unlddn csv := select * from qualif.db2table where ...; Kind regards Bernd Am 26.02.2015 um 04:11 schrieb Paul Gilmartin: On Wed, 25 Feb 2015 17:42:16 -0600, Tony's Outlook via Mozilla wrote: I'd certainly prefer zOS/batch/DFSORT.

Millions of records? No big deal. And suppose your data contain commas in some column, in some rows but not all? E.g. Babonas, T. Well, the designers should have split those fields into separate columns, but sometimes they don't. Choose a different separator? If you don't know a priori which character meets that requirement you must do a preliminary scan to find one. And if you find none you must establish a convention for escaping metacharacters. I suppose DFSORT can do all this. (Hmmm... Has anyone proven that DFSORT is Turing-complete? Or that it isn't?) Faced routinely with such a problem given a .xlsx file, I open it with LibreOffice and export as HTML, which guarantees that its delimiter tokens don't appear among the output data. Bernd probably has an effective solution. LibreOffice doesn't batch at all well. -- gil -- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to lists...@listserv.ua.edu with the message: INFO IBM-MAIN -- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to lists...@listserv.ua.edu with the message: INFO IBM-MAIN

All,
Just brought my z/OS 1.13 system up to current maintenance. Interestingly, DAF
now abends with a 0C4. Tried reassembling it on latest macros, and that fails
too. Looks like something changed in macro GFSAUSMF.
