Re: Using SORT to add quotes around CHAR fields? (Listserv)
Don, Microsoft Powershell will add quotes around a comma delimited field. However, it does it for all fields, not just Alphanumeric. It's a free download. This example command does the quote addition: import-csv C:\Users\wayne\Documents\book2.csv | export-csv C:\Users\wayne\Documents\book3.csv -NoTypeInformation -Encoding UTF8 In REXX, you can parse out each field from your CSV and use the STRIP function to take out the words that are numeric. This file: a, 1, 2, three abc, 5, 3, def hgi, 4, 6, ttt Becomes: "a","1","2","three" "abc","5","3","def" "hgi","4","6","ttt" PARSE VALUE mystring with F1 ',' F2',' F3 ',' F4 F2 = STRIP(F2,,'"') F4 = STRIP(F4,,'"') OUTSTR = F1 F2 F3 F4 Having said all this, I'd just PARSE your original records and add the quotes word by word where needed. They are in known positions, so you know which ones to STRIP and rebuild.

Hi Don, Since you have access to Broadcom software. Why don't you use your table as a Datasource utilizing Datacom Server and export to CSV from spreadsheet?

Re: Using SORT to add quotes around CHAR fields? (Listserv)
I see this is perhaps from the Datacom ITM table, supplied in the sample database? There is an IBM sample REXX program which reads the attributes of a SQL table and will build a template INSERT statement. If you could use this utility, it will give you the syntax that you need. I have a copy of this, I'll add some context later when I log on.

The list of attributes are obviously PL/I, and that suggests that PL/I could be the means of solving the problem.

Re: zEDC compression on z14 and z15 by using ADRDSSU
Hi Renato, Did you notice this statement at the beginning of the IQPPRM* chapter in the init and tuning reference for z/OS 2.5... Note: The IQPPRMxx will still be valid on IBM zEnterprise z15 and above processors, but the tunable options will no longer be available. Therefore, a message IQP062I REQUEST REJECTED - OPTIONS IGNORED will be displayed. I am not sure what it means exactly, however I'd be inclined to check the log for IQP062I messages. It sounds as though the IQP parms may not even be honored. I have little experience with on-chip zEDC, but did some benchmarking with the first round of PCIe zEDC adapters. For that world the DEFMINREQSIZE and INFMINREQSIZE values you're using seem exceedingly small, and allow for inefficient zEDC processing of smaller data quantities. Of course, on-chip zEDC will be faster than PCIe zEDC, but it is not clear/documented how this would impact settings of the minimums, especially on a z15 which may just give you some sort of parameter toleration mode. If the tiny default inflate and deflate minimums are being used, the overhead associated with Huffman compression/decompression will drive up CPU and provide reduced compaction, assuming the actual amount of in buffer data is also quite small. While not sure if on-chip zEDC versus PCIe zEDC is apples to apples, our limited benchmarks about 5 years ago compared CPU consumption for hardware assisted (CMPSC) compression against zEDC and against no compression. We found that for record sizes of... 512 bytes, zEDC used appx 250% more CPU than CMPSC, and appx 450% more CPU than no compression 1024 bytes, zEDC used appx 20% more CPU than CMPSC, and appx 225% more CPU than no compression 2048 bytes, zEDC used appx 30% less CPU than CMPSC, and appx 60% more CPU than no compression 4096 bytes, zEDC used appx 130% less CPU than CMPSC, and appx same CPU as no compression 8192 bytes, zEDC used appx 300% less CPU than CMPSC, and appx20% less CPU than no compression 16K bytes, same as above Unfortunately I do not know what the IQP minimum values were set at for the above test at this point in time, but guessing in the neighborhood of 4-8K. So at some point, probably below the 4-8K range, the relative inefficiency of software level compression is reflected. Okay, just checked the z/OS 2.5 MVS callable services doc for high level languages, chapter 14, pg 195 and it documents things more clearly... 4. Ensure that adequately sized input buffers are available. If the input buffer size falls below the minimum threshold, data compression occurs using zlib software compression and not zEDC. Note: IBM zEnterprise z15 and above processor thresholds will no longer be tunable through parmlib. The IQPPRMxx will still be allowed in the configuration, but the values will no longer be accepted. The environment variables _HZC_DEFLATE_THRESHOLD and _HZC_INFLATE_THRESHOLD can also be used to control the threshold for going to zEDC. The valid values are in the range 1-999. According to the above, you're IQP parms are being ignored and you will need to use the environment variables they mention. No mention of an equivalent for the MAXSEGMENTS parm. If you end up trying out the above env vars, I'd definitely appreciate an email with your results as this is something I've wondered about.

+1 It was initially called Fortran VI, because it was considered too advanced to be called Fortran V (1962), then NPL (1964, but could not because it was the acronym of the National Physical Laboratory [or similar] in the UK,) and then PL/I - with the '/' from OS/360 and the Roman 'I' to preserve its originally having been called Fortran VI.

Jay, You have gotten a long way further along the LE process than I have.

I am not sure about this, but hope there is an answer here. Don, If your intention is to just enclose the character fields with double quotes, It can be done, however need couple of clarifications. 1. What is the LRECL and RECFM of the input dataset? 2. Looking at the data, it seems to comma separated data, however the 2nd header line that has the db2 column attributes has numeric fields which has the precision separated with a comma. Is there anything special to distinguish the attributes? What does N.N mean? Can I use that as separator?

Using SORT to add quotes around CHAR fields? (Listserv)
This is a post now to the listserv, instead of the Google group. Sorry for the duplication! Hi, I have a comma-delimited extract from a file that has numeric and character fields, and I would like to turn it into a true CSV file by making the character fields quoted. I have a 2-line header (column names, and column types) which indicates which are CHAR fields, but cannot figure out how to capture the information from the header to apply to the actual data lines. For example, I have this in my file: ITM_ID,DESC,SHORT_DESC,U_M,UNIT_PRICE,ON_HAND,COMMIT,INV_HOLD,DISC_QTY,DISC_PCT,B_O_QTY,ON_ORD,ACT_YR,ACT_MO,ACT_DAY CHAR(10) N.N.,CHAR(30) NOT NULL,CHAR(8) N.N.,CHAR(4) N.N.,DEC(7,2) N.N.,DEC(7,0) N.N.,DEC(7,0) N.N.,CHAR(1) N.N.,DEC(7,0) N.N.,DEC(3,1) N.N.,DEC(7,0) N.N.,DEC(7,0) N.N.,CHAR(2) N.N.,CHAR(2) N.N.,CHAR(2) N.N.

Re: JES2 Purge Processing
Thanks. I was thinking about PCEDEF too. On this system PURGENUM is set to 2. Would setting a higher number helped speed up purge processing for a single job?

Re: JES2 Purge Processing
Classification: Confidential I would check your PCEDEF. JES2 allows for up to 10 concurrent processes, and defaults to 1. Your very large output may have been monopolizing the only purge processor available. I do not believe your checkpoint, per se, was the problem, however, As of z/OS 2.1 JES2 offers "auto-tuning" of the minhold, maxdorm and other parameters related to checkpoint processing in the MAS. I strongly suggest utilizing this function. Check the fine manuals for details. BTW, ISTR that there is no initparm for this. It can only be set via command(?).

Re: JES2 Purge Processing
Perhaps start by looking at the SMF26 records to see the timing and output size, that may give insight into where the elapsed time is going (note that it could be in JES2 user exits). That may suggest what locking is happening if that is relevant to your problem.
