zCloud is IBM-owned and -managed hardware and software in an IBM DC using 
various software stacks (z/VM, Linux, z/OS, CICS, IMS, DB2, MQ, Websphere, 
etc.), with your application (if any) and data.  You run in one or more LPARs, 
sharing the machines with other zCloud customers. 

See the link to the data sheet at 
https://www.ibm.com/services/cloud/managed-infrastructure-as-a-service.   You 
could view it as a form of outsourcing, yes.

Re: ISPF Edit Macro Regular Expression

Hi Greg,

That's probably what I'm thinking of, or maybe in the back of my mind it 
was something under ISPF written by Doug Nadel.  I forgot!


But I just tried your program and I see my current code page 1047 
showing up as 0417 hex - highlighted at the bottom of this image:

This sucks!  Metacharacters in macros are interpreted according to the
CCSID of the attached terminal; 1047 if in background.

It implies that the author of a macro must publish a variant for each
supported terminal type and thee user must adjust SYSEXEC for the
terminal in use.

Does any IBM representative care to defend this design? 

Better there should be a PRAGMA CCSID command to specify the
interpretation of metacharacters.

Better still, the macro should be loaded from zFS tagged with CCSID.

Even 1208.

I hate EBCDIC!

In addition to what you can get from TSO and ISPF, you can use TPG to write a  
WSF datastream. Read Partition - Query will give you the basics. Of course, 
that's overkill if all you want is the screen geometry.

I am trying to find the next JCL Statement with a valid label (i.e. an

Ideally I would like to start my search at  column 1 and FIND //

Please help.

Re: IBM Zcloud - is it just outsourcing ?

2021-05-28 Thread Bill Johnson
I remember the GM/EDS marriage well. After I was forced to transition to EDS, 
whenever Packard Electric engineers wanted changes made to the IMS system, I 
had to perform analysis of the request and submit an RFQ (request for 
quotation) and EDS hierarchy pushed for more hours (they were billable) than it 
really should have taken. Packard engineering and other users requesting 
changes were none too happy with the marriage. EDS charged Packard around $75 
an hour for my programming & analysis time.

Definitely semantics.  I keep telling non-mainframers here at work that 
mainframe has been a "cloud" for decades.  Think about it, teams just deploy 
their apps and they run, no server provisioning, etc.    Continuous 
availability, nah AWS has nothing on MF.

Today's "cloud" is infrastructure outsourcing, nothing less.  Except that the 
new outsourcers (Amazon, and others), have gotten smarter.  Easy to get in, 
costs an arm and a leg to get out.  In distributed systems its a slow growth, 
server here, server there, before long you have 100's, 1000's of AWS instances 
all at the mercy of someone somewhere who knows.

I used to work for IBM in the 90's in their outsourcing business.  Companies 
that outsourced to reduce capital asset requirements but still were actively 
using mainframe space, didnt seem to stay outsourced long.    Any deviation 
from original contract to add services was a nightmare.  My observation is that 
company's where MF was stablized, or a company in financial trouble were the 
ones that stayed.

All of this ebb's and flows over time, we'll see how this all shakes out.

Re: IBM Zcloud - is it just outsourcing ?

2021-05-28 Thread Bill Johnson
At GM, circa 1983-84, we had plants all over the country that worked off of a 
mainframe in Warren, Ohio. (Packard Electric) After the transition to EDS, 
those same plants worked off the mainframe in Charlotte, NC. (They moved 
multiple GM divisions there) Early cloud processing, outsourced to EDS. Now, 
any time I perform a banking transaction, it gets processed wherever the JP 
Morgan mainframe is located. If I access my photos, they are retrieved from 
Apple or Amazon at one of their DC’s. The only difference is in 1984 you used a 
stationary PC or Terminal. Now you use a smaller PC called a laptop or phone.

Re: IBM Zcloud - is it just outsourcing ?

2021-05-28 Thread Radoslaw Skorupka

IMHO it depends.
First, it depends on what we understand as outsourcing.
1. I buy HW and SW and keep it in my datacenter. Oh, BTW: the 
application software is mine, not delivered from outside.

2. Application is delivered, and there are many options how to maintain it.
3. I keep HW in leased DC.
4. I rent HW from DC owner.
5. I rent HW from DC owner and some services like cabling, servicing, etc.
6. DC owner takes care about switches and maybe other things.
...
etc.

Regarding Zcloud - I believe it depends on your expectations how deep 
the outsourcing would be.

Am I missing something or is there ‘proper’ cloud technology, such provisioning
