Re: NFS
It has been a while back but I don't recall anything being difficult. We are only using it to present an MVS dataset prefix to the distributed world. There are several VSAM files that need to be created and some parm selection. We use RACF and we attached the started task to the same owner as TCPIP so it would have USS authority. As I recall it was pretty much a step by step install.

Re: [External] Finding and replying to outstanding reply
A nicer brute force might be. 01,STOP 02,STOP 03,STOP . . . 99,STOP At this point it should be down and as long as no other reply would be accepting STOP as valid they should return with a new reply number. This will not be true if you have other automation that is not coded to reject and retry if an invalid response is received. Of course if you are coming down and this is close to the last item... Just a thought... If you have automation... issue D R,L and capture the responses and reply.

Re: LRS VPS Printer Replacment
LRS provides a report of printer use, if you are collecting the SMF, If you don't have 13 months of data then make sure to sample month end, quarter end and year end processing dates... if not, you may miss some limited use printers.

Re: MSU Actual [AD]
Yes you can. We capture every 5 minutes. We start the task and produce messages that look like this: +XWZ009I Testing... hlmsu= 38 himsu= 35 hcap= 100 hrmsu=0 +XWZ000I CPC: Local Partition Capping State: +XWZ001I CPC: WLM Capping %: 100 ( WTO Limit: 0 ) +XWZ010I Testing... MVSx :35 We also use automation to capture the messages and send an email when we are projecting capping within the next 15 minutes. Interesting that IronStream is mentioned. We also have the free version running on z/OS and are sending the above log messages to splunk and have this dashboard: I included a screenshot of a graph showing how you can know your MSU trend with just a short glance.

Re: Error in a simple COBOL program
What is missing is a method of making the program "know" that you want it to get input from your screen. (or so it seems) If you want terminal input you need to use CICS or ISPF PANEL processing. Or possibly execute this program from TSO. It has been a while but I know of no way to tie a batch job to your terminal.

I s'pose:
something like
SLIP
SET,SA,RA=(25DCC,25DCF),ASIDSA=('JOBNA*'),A=TRACE,TD=(STD,REGS,25DCC,25DCF
),ID=OVLY,END
And I would go with a MODE=INT GTF trace, with SD=10M.
The SLIP dump of the U4087 abend should contain the most recent 10MB of
GTF trace.
The specific addresses in the SLIP are where the job has allocated the
storage that holds the pointer that got corrupted in each previous dump, so
we're gambling on it being at the same virtual address in each job next
time we try to trap the corrupter. Note the generic job name in ASIDSA.

Re: EZZ9308E UNRESPONSIVE NAME SERVER
I have had the same problem. I am sure it is network related but my network folks say nothing has changed... to that I say... why did it just start occurring without any change anywhere. I was forced to add: RESOLVERTIMEOUT 10 UNRESPONSIVETHRESHOLD(85) Note that your current level of failure is 50%. I think the default on UNRESPONSIVETHRESHOLD is something like 25%. Meaning if in the sample time period you have over 25% failures... you get the message. Since this is just an early warning type message, and my network folks can't tell me why it is failing at times... I set my UNRESPONSIVETHRESHOLD to 85% and, if I understand RESOLVERTIMEOUT, correctly, I have doubled the amount of time that it gathers attempts to calculate the percentage. Making these changes on my system has cut these messages down from several per day to just a few each week.

Re: Long Passwords
It would be more helpful if everyone would reply with what they know to be a fact. It has been stated that every RACF ID must have a password. I added a new user to my system and only created a password phrase. I was able to logon to TSO using the password phrase. So, it does not seem to be true that a password is required unless RACF created some random password, but the bottom line is there is no password that I can use to logon except the password phrase.
