New CSS in HCD
I need few more LPARs. Due to limits I want to create new LPARs in new CSS1. As far as now only CSS0 contains defined LPARs. I wonder how to do it to save unnecessary work. When you create another LPAR within CSS, you simply provide name and update channel access lists. For new CSS the list of CHPIDs is empty, which means a lot of definitions. Another approach is to copy whole CSS0 to CSS1. Actually I have to delete dummy CSS1 before the copy. However after that I have whole list of channel definitions, but with not PCHID assigned. It's not big work to fill the PCHID fields, but maybe there are simpler methods? Any clue? (Details: EC12, only OSA and FICON channels - that means can be defined as SPAN). -- Radoslaw Skorupka Lodz, Poland -- Treść tej wiadomości może zawierać informacje prawnie chronione Banku przeznaczone wyłącznie do użytku służbowego adresata.

Go back to SYSLOG where the /CSQ1 STOP was issued.

Re: Notify for XMIT
You didn't say but from your results you apparently tested from within an interactive TSO session, which runs IKJEFT01. Now to complete the test try invoking your invalid-keyword version of the CLIST from the SYSTSIN SYSIN file in a Batch TSO job step where the JCL EXEC statement invokes PGM=IKJEFT1A, with a SYSPROC DD pointing to your CLIST library, and see what you get written to the SYSTSPRT SYSOUT file. I would be willing to bet the SEND RETURNED CC 92 does not appear in the batch TSO test because the WRITE is never reached. The whole point is that CLISTs under TSO/E behave (as documented) somewhat differently in a batch IKJEFT1A/IKJEFT1B environment versus an interactive TSO session. This is what makes the adding of new cases where SEND might return a non-zero RC a potential issue for CLISTs that use SEND within batch TSO job steps.

Cache Fast Write (CFW) - Data in the CFW is *not* mirrored, is it?
My GDPS mate asked us to make sure that cache fast write (CFW) on out (PPRC) mirrored boxes is disabled because it is not compatible with HyperSwap. This statement presumes that data in the CFW is not mirrored, is it? Up to now, I got somewhat inconsistent informtion about CFW in current DASD subsystems. Trying to get a clear view with the help of specialist here on the list. I understand that CFW can be switched on/off via IDCAMS. While this can be protected via RACF, this is not bullet proof. Some software (DFSort?) might write its own channel programm to set the switch. I therefore asked our DASD provider if CFW can be permanently disabled on the box. Got a Yes, but nobody does it Talking to someone else, I was told that modern DASD subsystems always use CFW; the user has no influence in this (??) Finally I haven't been able to figure out whether data in the CFW cache is mirrored *before* of *after* the data has been hardened to the platter. Appreciate any insight.

For new CSS the list of CHPIDs is empty, which means a lot of definitions. Another approach is to copy whole CSS0 to CSS1. Actually I have to delete dummy CSS1 before the copy. However after that I have whole list of channel definitions, but with not PCHID assigned. It's not big work to fill the PCHID fields, but maybe there are simpler methods? Any clue? (Details: EC12, only OSA and FICON channels - that means can be defined as SPAN). -- Radoslaw Skorupka Lodz, Poland -- Treść tej wiadomości może zawierać informacje prawnie chronione Banku przeznaczone wyłącznie do użytku służbowego adresata.

Re: ZIP-format files on CBT downloadable directly (new)
Thanks! Thanks for all you do. I know you are a volunteer and I know about volunteer organizations. I'm on the Board of one and get very annoyed by the you should's from people who are only peripherally involved. But ... here goes. I for one would love to see some way to browse the *high-level documentation* for a CBT file *directly* on a small ASCII-based system. I find it cumbersome to - search the CBT Web page for a possible candidate for some function I am looking for - download the file to my PC. - upload it to my LPAR (remember to get the binary part right!) - RECEIVE it - browse the documentation ... only to find it does not do what I wanted. Delete the file from my PC and two datasets from my LPAR. Lather, rinse, repeat. Again ... not complaining. THANK YOU for maintaining the CBT tape.

ZIP-format files on CBT downloadable directly (new)
Hi Folks, I agree with Mike Schwab. I myself search CBTDOC.PDS with the PDS command: FIND : /string/ THEN(MEMLIST) command, which is the equivalent of doing a FIND on a string in CBT File 001. So browse CBT File 001 and look for what you think you want. It MAY be a bit more accurate than just guessing. The CBTDOC.PDS dataset is obtained by breaking up File 001 into a pds, using the CBTUPD program from CBT File 006. So doing a PDS command string search on the pds, using it's FInd subcommand, is the equivalent of doing a plain string FIND on the entire File 001. CBT FILE 001, while not being perfect, has a lot more detail than the one-liners on the CBT page of www.cbttape.org. I certainly hope this will help. All the best of everything to all of you.

In OMVS. I'm not addressing your question but rather the OP's example. Which OMVS facilities match \n to end of line (record) and which to LF? What do grep et al do about matching \n against legacy PS data sets, where there is a logical end of record? When commands like cat and cp read legacy PS data sets as text, the results reflect this description of reading text files in the C/C++ Programming Guide: http://publibz.boulder.ibm.com/cgi-bin/bookmgr_OS390/BOOKS/CBCPG1C0/2.9.4.2 Where it says: For files opened in fixed text format, rightmost blanks are stripped off a record at input, and a new-line character is placed in the logical record. That new-line character is hex 15. So a 3-line data set of 80-byte records that look like this: a test testing will look like this in hex after being read by cat cat //test.cntl | od -tx1 -An 81 15 A3 85 A2 A3 15 A3 85 A2 A3 89 95 87 15 which is the same result as this command: printf %b a\ntest\ntesting\n | od -tx1 -An 81 15 A3 85 A2 A3 15 A3 85 A2 A3 89 95 87 15 The only facility with regular expressions that I have found that matches \n to end-of-line is in Perl. For example: printf %b a\ntest\ntesting\n | perl -ne 'print if /test\n/' test printf %b a\ntest\ntesting\n | perl -ne 'print if /test$/' test The grep and awk commands don't match \n to end-of-line on omvs, or on linux for that matter.

Download the FILE 1 ASCII to view the directory of all files. Download the XMITMGR and install. Download a file and view with XMITMGR. If it does what you want, upload as binary.

At that time, I did not want to take the burden to extend any JES2 control blokc held on the spool, and since it was sufficient, I used some user fields in the JCT so save acoounting information in JES2 exit 3. Later, JES2 exit 23 aquired some storage (getmain) to store this data for PSF exits 1 and 2. PSF exit 2 (job end) was in charge of releasing the storage after use. This is from a quick refresh of my memory. Note also that I have not verified if there is an easier way nowadays.
