Re: Serverpac installs January 2022 and beyond - Requests
Did you think to have even ONE of those early sites be one with a small processor (single CPU) like a low end single CPU z/13, z14 or z15? Most likely you didn't and that's very sad. A good percentage of "new" clients that IBM has added over the past 5 to 8 years are in that boat and IBM has decided to set sail without them. I have no doubt that the early customers represented vast swaths of geographies and industries, but how low did you guys dip to test with a "small" site. The ones IBM called strategic so that they would not go to Open Systems and instead go with a small box and z/OS? It's very disappointing. Not all of the people IBM is ignoring have access to large and small boxes like I do, if you have a small box and want to upgrade after January to 2.5 from say 2.3, they will not be able to do it without beefing up their machine or coming to someone like us to do it for them. I'm not complaining about the business that IBM is pushing my way, but I think it's sad that IBM appears to care very little about the damage (via frustration) they are about to do. Some will buy an upgraded box, but many will simply drop their mainframe path in favor of some other direction (away from z/OS).

Brian, >> Some of the problem here is that you are telling me what "will" be there, >> but I don't have anything that actually shows that or even implies it for >> z/OSMF for z/OS. I don't even have the workflows to verify anything. For the z/OS Workflows that you haven't seen yet, they are Workflow steps that are submitting the same JCL jobs that you used to submit through the ISPF interface and should be familiar with today. Meaning, instead of using an ISPF panel to submit the job, you will now submit those same jobs from the z/OSMF Workflow interface. That is the difference. The jobs remain the same, in probably 99.99% of the cases. They are being converted from ISPF JCL skeletons (SCPPSENU) to z/OSMF Workflow JCL templates (XML). So yes, you haven't seen them in their XML format, but you certainly have seen them when they were JCL skeletons. And remember, every single Workflow step JCL that is submitted is able to be edited from z/OSMF, just like it was with the CustomPac dialog. Might there be a conversion error to XML? Yes, of course that is possible. But that is why we have my second comment below... >> People won't have much time between Late September and January to discover >> and correct all of the bugs. For each z/OS new release, and V2.5 more than ever, there are early customer programs. The release level early program for z/OS V2.5 has its main focus on the installation of and upgrade to z/OS V2.5. We understood that the installation process would be different and wanted as much exposure, testing, and validation in customer environments before it GAs. We have early customers that represent many different industries and geographies. Each of these customers has installed with a z/OS V2.5 z/OSMF ServerPac. Not a single one of them used the old ISPF ServerPac. -Marna WALLE z/OS System Install and Upgrade IBM Poughkeepsie -- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to lists...@listserv.ua.edu with the message: INFO IBM-MAIN

A USERMOD is overkill. SMP/E parmlib is specified in the JCL, so just create your own and use it. That's what I do.

That precise facility is not documented as such... (AFAIK) I'd recommend you get HCL Z Asset Optimizer (aka ZAO) where its Usage Monitor component has done all that work for you. If your site runs IBM Z Software Asset Management then that will also do it. Basically, the plan is to ascertain the DD, and then chase the relevant control blocks to determine the data set name. CSVQUERY OUTPDATA often contains a DD name for load modules, and a pointer of interest for program objects. I don't know what an FMD is, but I imagine it is a Fetched Module Descriptor.

You must have keying material, and I'd be flabbergasted if IBM shipped said keying material with the system. You have to transfer that keying material between systems you want to communicate.

Re: How should I send file to another sysplex securely.
On 7/22/21 6:09 PM, Charles Mills wrote: Guys, this is the problem with inventing your own solution. You didn't elucidate what the (or a) problem is. Public keys are, well, public. Yes, that's the very nature of a /public/ key. The new fashion in fact is to NOT trust internal networks. You really don't know how far an intruder may have intruded, so you should assume every communication channel is insecure. *HEAVYsigh* Yes. Zero Trust *is* /a/ thing. But I think it's *MUCH* /more/ of a buzz word trying to sell snake oil than it is a real problem. As Bruce Schneier is famous for saying "Trust the Math". If I compare (a cryptographic hash of) the public key on SYS1 and SYS2 and they are the same, combined with the fact that SYS1's corresponding key can decrypt what SYS2 encrypts with it's copy of SYS1's public key, then I think the math dictates that SYS1 and SYS2 are actually talking to each other, no matter how (in)secure the intervening network(s) are. And if a malicious actor can intercept data flowing across a HyperSocket between two LPARs and perform a full in the middle attack, ... you've got MUCH bigger problems. In the new era of cloud and partners and bring your own device, exactly what is an internal and what is an external network? The two CECs sitting next to each other in the same room with cables running directly between them seems to definitely qualify as "internal" to me. You can "what if" yourself to death. Or you can "trust the math". Verify (a hash of) the public key on the source and destination system. If the key is the same, you are quite likely safe to move data across the wire. If someone can spoof the output from the commands to display (the hash of) the public key and your terminal as an active in the middle attack ... you have bigger problems. I'm not even sure that IBM can help you. This new paradigm is called "Zero Trust." https://csrc.nist.gov/publications/detail/sp/800-207/final. I have a presentation on Zero Trust coming up courtesy of New Era, but we don't have a date yet. A good month or so out. I'm intrigued.
