"tapehlq" parm in IGGCATxx
this is re: z/os 2.2 can anybody throw some light on the USAGE of the "tapehlq" parm in IGGCATxx? and please, nobody say "it specifies the hlq for a tape volume catalog" [and, btw, the default is SYS1] -- i have made an effort here, consulted the 2.2 init & tuna REFERENCE , even searched in ibm's "info center" as well as in their "knowledge center" AND even looked the 2.2 init and tuning GUIDE [when all else fails, read the intstructions] – got nothing. the parameter does NOT exist in z/os 1.13 – so what's its purpose? the INTENTION behind it?

The 2014 VM Workshop, June 26-28 2014 will be conducted at North Carolina AT State University, Greensboro NC A Guaranteed Registration deadline is hard-coded as 11:59 PM Friday May 30, 2014 due to NC AT requirements for dorm room setup and, manufacturer Polo Shirt and T-Shirt production deadlines. All paid registrations before that deadline are guaranteed to receive: - one no-charge embroidered 2014 VM Polo Shirt (for regular attendees, plus any added purchases), - one no-charge 2014 VM Workshop T-shirt (for students, plus any added purchases), - a reserved dorm room (for those who paid for dorm 'nights' - single rooms are sold out: you'll be paired up with a roommate of the same gender), - an Aggie debit card pre-loaded with $65 for convenient FOOD purchases in the campus cafeteria, - all that above will be available at the VM Workshop registration table beginning Thursday morning. Registrations will still be accepted after 11:59 PM Friday May 30, but after that time no dorm reservations can be accepted, and shirts and Aggie debit cards will be available on a best-effort basis after Guaranteed Registrations have been processed. WHO: z/VM, and Linux on System z Friends WHAT: Location, travel, lodging from dorm rooms ($50/night/bed) up to nearby hotels, travel hints, sponsor information, and registration details for the 2013 VM Workshop have all been posted to: http://www.vmworkshop.org/2014 Session agenda information will be available on the web site in early June, following the close of Session Submissions at 11:59 PM on May 30. WHERE: North Carolina AT State University, Greensboro NC WHEN: SESSION DATES: From Thursday morning JUNE 26 until about 3PM (or so) Saturday JUNE 28. Choose from multiple concurrent presentations packed full of up-to-the-minute technical sessions for all expertise levels of z/VM, and Linux on System z, and from Hands-On Labs including: - z/VM 6.3.0 Installation or Migration (your choice), -'Linux on System z' Installation (SLES or Redhat, your choice), - z/VM BFS and SFS Administration (Byte File System and Shared File System), and - more hands-on labs as they are submitted. Wednesday June 25 is reserved for VM Workshop Volunteer Committee site preparation and lab setup, if you are interested in joining just send me an e-mail asking to join. WHY: Previous VM Workshops have been referred to by the small-minded as: 'a large number of system programmers with some limited adult supervision' (do you really want to miss this!??). Expect another wonderful up close and personal workshop with great content and terrific camaraderie. Come to meet VM old-timers... and *future* z/VM old-timers while learning the latest technical z/VM and 'Linux on System z' details. Don't know where to start with Linux on System z? This is a great place to start! PRICE: STILL UNCHANGED from the previous three years, ** ONLY $100 per attendee**, optional dorm rooms with full linens are available for $50/night/bed. This is the best bargain out there for z/VM and 'Linux on System z' education, and is quite reasonable for anyone paying their own way. Parking is available on-site for $6 per day. Regular attendees and sponsor attendees: The $100 registration fee for regular attendees includes: access to all sessions and hands-on labs, a snazzy 2014 VM Workshop polo shirt (not just a cheap T-shirt like those high-priced conferences), a Gala Dinner Reception on Thursday evening, and... attendees will be provided with an NC AT Aggie debit card loaded with $65 to purchase other meals and snacks on campus. Full-time Students: A $10 registration fee includes: access to all sessions and hands-on labs, a 2014 VM Workshop T-shirt (sure to become a campus must have), and optional ($15) attendance at the Gala Dinner Reception on Thursday evening. Spouse attendees: A $0 registration fee provides: an optional means of purchasing a dorm room bed ($50/night/bed), and/or attendance at the Gala Dinner Reception on Thursday evening ($20).

maintain, distribute multiple copies same-named ZFS files
operating environment here is all z/os 1.13 how am i suppsed to clone and DISTRIBUTE (with emphasis on *distribute*) zfs files? CURRENTLY, I have a situation where 6 lpars, 3 production and 3 test, all share the same master catalog. In that master catalog, the entry for OMVS.ROOT reads as follows, (i.a.,) : volser hfsv1 ;and there are 6 3390s out there, one for each lpar, each of which has a copy of OMVS.ROOT on it. Currently, each such omvs.root is an HFS file. Whenever any lpar is ipled, the value of hfsv1 is set bmo of an entry in an appropriate IEASYM-- in an appropriate PARMLIB, and each lpar runs with its own copy of the root, called OMVS.ROOT . whenever i have a NEW COPY of omvs.root that needs to be distributed, i (1) drain the 3 test lpars; (2) go to the pack in each test lpar whcih contains omvs.root and do a DELETE/NOSCRATCH for the omvs.root on that pack ; (3) from a 7th lpar, i copy the new version of omvs.root to the pack in each test lpar which is supposed to have a copy of omvs.root on it, using a DISP=(NEW,KEEP). Later on, those 3 test lpars are ipled as production lpars. in this methodology, the entry in the master catalog is never touched, and nothing in any of the 3 production lpars is ever impacted by whatever i may be doing in any test lpar. (This g.p. methodology is how i maintain ALL the o/s image dsn-s) (and, btw, i use this methodology to distribute a couple DOZEN omvs/unix-system-services dsn-s, not just omvs.root) the recent emphasis from ibm is, has been, to convert one's HFS files to ZFS. so, now, given that zfs files are really vsam files, (1) how does one maintain multiple copies of zfs files off of one master catalog, given that you can't catalog vsam files using symbolic values in the catalog entry ; (2) next, assuming that there is some method -- unknown to me at the present moment -- to maintain multiple copes of identically-named vsam files off of one catalog , how do i go about distributing new copies of zfs files, using my methodology that I described above? First of all, if I follow the above-described scenario, the first time i try to delete a zfs file (a vsam file, now) , isn't that going to also erase the catalog entry for it (and wreak some havoc for the remaining 5 lpars, which are also still using the catalog) ? Second of all, there is/are the VVDS entries, something I need not bother myself about in my current methodology (b/c in that, no vsam files are involved) -- how do i keep them sync-ed up? (3) i tried to consult several books about this , i.a., z/os distributed file service file system implementation , distributed file sevice zSeries file system Administration and volume 9, ABCs of system programming and z/FS reorganization tool , and i just can't get this to work , at least in the context of the methodology i currently use to distribute omvs/unix-system-services dsn-s.

Of course, those that are introduced in a product's release will not have this FIXCAT, but it will tell you about the ones introduced (or associated with introductions) of a health check in the service stream. Now, for the one at hand - ZOSMIGV1R13_ZFS_FILESYS - the one I think of as the most important health check if you are migrating to z/OS R13! Since this was a health check specifically written for z/OS migration (we know that because it starts with ZOSMIG), then you can look for more information about it in the z/OS Migration book. (The IBM Health Checker for z/OS User's Guide does contain all the information about z/OS checks, and it really should have mentioned which APAR it was introduced in, but I'll do an RCF for that and get it fixed.) The z/OS Migration book does contain the APAR number that introduced this check (OA35465). It also says that this APAR applies to z/OS R11 and R12 - making sense, since this is for a migration to z/OS R13. I did verify that the PTF for OA35465 (which was only one PTF since the zFS FMID is the same FMID for z/OS R11 and R12), has the FIXCAT for IBM.Function.HealthChecker as expected. Also, there was a defect APAR written against this check with APAR OA36514. That PTF also has the FIXCAT IBM.Function.HealthChecker as expected, since it is associated with a health check. So, using the REPORT MISSINGFIX for IBM.Function.HealthChecker will work fine here. Now, sometimes we happen to include migration health checks in the coexistence APARs for lower level releases. This makes sense to do when you think about it - the health check goes back to the same releases that have coexistence for the release you are migrating to, and the health check is applicable there too. With this is mind, do not be alarmed if a PTF has both a FIXCAT for the migration health check (IBM.Function.HealthChecker) *AND* for coexistence (IBM.Coexistence.z/OS.V1R13). When you do your REPORT MISSINGFIX for both these categories, you may be able to satisfy anything missing with a single PTF.I'm just adding this in, as some people may not know that a PTF can have multiple FIXCATs associated with it. This doesn't change anything I've already said above. I did just want to expand a little on Mark's sample SMP/E statements for using REPORT MISSINGFIX for verification of both coexistence and target system requirements...I suggest also adding IBM.Function.HealthChecker to that list, so that you can make sure when you have your coexistence PTFs installed on those lower level systems for migration, that you ALSO have the migration health checks installed in one fell swoop.

there is a HealthCheck called zosmigv1r13_zfs_filesys that I would like to install in my 1.11 system . I know that new healthChecks are usualy distributed bmo ptf-s. so I went to this site https://www-304.ibm.com/ibmlink/sis/searchAparAndUsageLibSubmit.wss and after signin blah blah blah submitted a search on the search argument of zosmigv1r13_zfs_filesys all I got in return was a reference to a ptf which talks about an abend which can occur when you try to run that HealthCheck. is there an UNEQUIVOCAL method for finding out which ptf introduced which HealthCheck?? thank you -- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to lists...@listserv.ua.edu with the message: INFO IBM-MAIN
variable FIXCAT report results
environment is z/os 1.11. am ramping up to install 1.13. when, in z/so 1.11, I run the smp/e report REPORT MISSINGFIX ZONES(MVST100) FIXCAT ( IBM.COEXISTENCE.Z/OS.V1R13 ) . report all by itself (asking for info for ONLY ibm.coexistence.z/os.v1r13 ) the SMPPUNCH output contains SET BDY(MVST100) APPLY CHECK SELECT ( …… and a long list of ptf-s appears, NONE of which is commented out. (and the list DOES include ua59383 and ua60054 as “good to go” ) this is good. but when I do this: FIXCAT ( IBM.COEXISTENCE.Z/OS.V1R13 IBM.FUNCTION.HEALTHCHECKER ) . then i get the same laundry list of ptf-s in the SMPPUNCH output … BUT NOW, the followng two ptf-s are commented out: ua59383, and ua60054 I have investigated those two ptf-s by reading them in the smppts dataset, as well as by doing a ‘query’ on their respective SMPCSI info in the smp/e dialog. I cannot find any reason why the “report mssingfix fixcat” process should give them as “good to go” in one context, and “not good to go” in the second context. can anyone shed any light on this in general, or in particular (as regard these two particular ptf-s)? how does smp/e make such a varying determination? what does it have at its disposal that I , manually, do not have ? thank you. /s/ tuco bonno; Graduate, College of Conflict Management; University of SouthEast Asia; I partied on the Ho Chi Minh Trail - tiến lên !! -- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to lists...@listserv.ua.edu with the message: INFO IBM-MAIN
