Thanks!

Regarding 2:  I restored the dataset to another name and then did 2 renames.  
IEBPDSE did not report any problems.

Re: CryptoExpress4S - how many domains?

Good point. SE (or HMC) should show list of domains, BUT
1. I can't access the machine now.
2. I can imagine there is microcode update which extends the number of 
possible domains.

The number of domains architecturally supported in the CEX5 card itself is 
actually 256, which is of course a nice power of 2.  However, that is more than 
that z System machine needs.  The number supported by the machine was 
determined by deciding what a reasonable number of domains would be, relative 
to the number of host LPARs and the processing speed of the machine.

The 85 is quite obvious: it is current limit of LPARs in z13. So, single 
CryptoExpress5S card can serve *all* LPARs in the machine.


Of course the question is why z13 has 85 LPARs, but it's another 
question which I cannot answer.

LIST 210. 

If it is a stand-alone dump, you may need to specify an ASID which is 
connected
to the shared memory object of interest.  If it is an SVC dump, I think 
the ASID
is not used.

LIST 210. COMPDATA(IARHVSHR)  should also work.

Tailoring SVCDUMP (SDUMPX) on zos/2.1

  How did you determine that there are many absolute storage records? Did 
you
count the number of records whose dump record prefix starts with 'DR2 A .' 
?

Slow storage creep in SYSTEM.SYSSTC

2015-05-26 Thread Gibney, David Allen,Jr
We just had a zPCR study. There weren't any real surprises, but the "Workload 
CS Samples for" my production Lpar shows a very slow creep in the SYSTEM.SYSSTC 
workload. I am z/OS 1.13 at RSU1408. As far as I know, I neither have nor 
really can control what falls into SYSSTC. It's all z/OS.

I recently stopped the practice of monthly IPLs and am a little concerned. The 
growth rate is slow and I have ample head room.

Just tossing it out here for thought on identifying the guilty software?

You can, and probably should at least look at some of your heavy hitters.

Grab a couple of (system) dumps a couple of weeks apart. Under IPCS run the 
VSMDATA with OWNCOMM SUMMARY. The Diag Reference has examples of what you'll 
get. You may be able to see from a quick eyeball where it's going.
You can run a getmain/freemain trace, but you really don't want to go there. 
Running GTF for weeks, then trying to process the output just ain't funny.

All else fails, flick me a return business class air ticket, and I'll come have 
a look. Washington can't be too bad this time of year   ;-)

(all the above presumes you have the DIAGxx member set up already)
