Re: VSAM record size larger than 32K
When you use a record size that is larger than one control interval, you must also specify spanned records (SPANNED). The formula for the maximum record size of spanned records as calculated by VSAM is as follows: MAXLRECL = CI/CA * (CISZ - 10) where: v MAXLRECL is the maximum spanned record size. v CI/CA represents the number of control intervals per control area. v CISZ is the control interval size. Restriction: With REPRO and EXPORT, you cannot use data sets with record sizes greater than 32 760.

Re: How to? Designing a "graph" of information
I use the RMF "CPU Activity" report "Partition Data Report" and strip out Date, Time, LPAR, DEF and ACT MSU and capping %. Gives me a nice graph of MSU by interval and capping % if capped. You can also show when the LPAR is using more than its defined capacity and why soft capping is better than hard capping (FSVO better).

Designing a "graph" of information We use PR/SM Group Capacity to regulate our aggregate MSUs from two LPARs on a single CEC. This is for cost containment. We have a product which runs on both z/OS images on the LPARs which produce messages similar to: N 402 LIH1 14169 22:07:51.36 STC16813 0090 CMFCPU15 LPAR NO LONGER SOFT CAPPED BY WLM; CAPPED DURATION WAS S 00.02.00 I have a program, on Linux, which takes this and produces lines like: LPAR LIH1 was capped starting at Mon 2014-06-16 21:52:41 until Mon 2014-06-16 21:55:31 for a duration of 00.02.50 I can the process this information in another program which puts the fields: LPAR (LIH1 above), the started date & time (2014-06-15 21:52:41 & 2014-06-16 21:55:31) into a relational table. From this I can generate another table which has a row for each minute within the interval. Each row contains the date/time column & a column for each z/OS Image. The z/OS image either contains a " " or a "*" depending on whether that z/OS is WLM capped any time during that minute. Thing of the columns like: date/time @ minute resolution; is LPAR#1 capped?; Is LPAR#2 capped?. Now what I want to do is create a "time graph". The X axis is the date / time. Each point on the Y axis is for a given LPAR. The intersection (plot) is either "*" if that LPAR is capped at that time or a blank. This is to show, along a time sequence how each LPAR is being "capped" and "uncapped". Ex: LIH1 capped| * | * | DEV1 capped| | * | Date/Time | -mm-dd hh:mm | -mm-dd hh:mm | Hopefully you get the idea. And see at least one problem. There are 1400 minutes in a single day. Way too many to plot even a single day. So I though, why not summarize, perhaps on an hourly basis. Where each "point" in the plot is the sum of the number of minutes in which the LPAR was capped. This would be easy to do with SQL if I changed the " " & "*" for not capped/capped to 0 and 1 instead. Which I can easily do. Then use SQL to consolidate each hour. Again, easy. But what I'd like is something more "visual" than just putting out what would look like a spread sheet with numbers. What I would like is a true graph where for each DateTime / LPAR "point", I would plot a "bar" whose thickness is relative to the number. I.e. if a particular LPAR, during a particular hour had been capped 60 times (max # of minutes), then I'd have a 100% full vertical "bar" at that point. If it had been capped 30 times, then a 50% full bar. This way, the eye can easily scan along the X axis getting an "intuitive" grasp of how the LPARs are being impacted by the WLM capping. First, does the above information sound useful to others? I mean what I'm trying to convey (how WLM capping is possibly affecting turn around). Secondly, is the method (the "bars" varying in height) a good "intuitive" way to display the information to management (who simply adore graphs, with colors!)

Re: New install library size
I personally would prefer the shipped size to be exactly what the dataset needs (maybe on cylinder boundaries) including directory allocation. Or maybe a documented % over allocated (maybe 5-10%) that is the same across the board. I can easily globally add x% to both fields or better yet give me a ServerPac variable for primary, secondary, directory % increase (separate variables for target and dlib please). Not really a big deal for me at this point because I have it in my procedures to globally add x% to my target libs, dlibs I leave alone as shipped. Although larger volumes are/have been available I'm pretty much stuck with 3390-9 (and -3 in some cases). Whatever you do please make sure we know about the change before we try to install.

Let's say, for the sake of argument, that that's four so far. How do others feel about this? First, some background: As I recall, the current design of the ServerPac dialog does not allow space to be reduced below the default shipped values, which with a few exceptions include a fixed percentage of free space. There are sound reasons, in my opinion, to NOT allow those values to be reduced from what is shipped today. Historically, those values have been minimized to help prevent the allocation of additional disk volumes when orders for, say, z/OS and other products included in z/OS orders don't happen to occupy space that's comfortably far away from typical volume boundaries. Editing the ALLOCDS job to reduce allocations and fit within a given number of volumes is painful. Running out of space during service APPLY processing is painful. Allocating additional volumes is painful. On the other hand disk volumes are, by and large, probably rather larger these days. But we've no direct view of what everyone does with volume sizes "out there in the 'real world.'" So...what should we do here? a) We might blanket increase the free space for every data set. (In this case, by how much should we increase it?) This one has the benefit of being easier than the others, I suspect. b) We might add a "recommended space" value and make it possible to reduce space from "recommended" to "minimum." (What should "recommended" be?) c) We might make SMP/E recover from space abends when possible. (Enough space on the *same volume* would likely be a requirement. A potential for even more severe foot damage following careless use of SMP/E on a running instance of software might well ensue.) d) We might add a "Super Size Me!" option to the z/OSMF Software Management software instance cloning function. e) We might do something else...what? Bear in mind that, as always, this is a zero-sum game. So if we give you any of these things we will might well have to defer something else in this same area. Vote early and often...as usual, no promises, except that I'll at least listen.

A Format 1 DSCB has space for 3 extent descriptors and a pointer to a Format 3 DSCB, which has space for 13 more extent descriptors AND ALSO a pointer to another Format 3 DSCB. Thus the VTOC was architected to allow an infinite number of extents in one data set, as long as the volume has enough free space for one more Format 3 DSCB. For reasons unknown to me now, but probably due to the smallness and expense of storage in the 1960s, IBM chose to cap a data set's VTOC usage to a maximum of two DSCBs for a non-ISAM data set and three for an ISAM data set. The way VSAM data sets are described in terms of DSCBs is that you start with a Format 1, it points to a Format 3, that F3 can then point to another F3, etc. up to however many F3 DSDBs are needed to hold all the extents that are allowed by some other constraint somewhere in the system software. That is the only reason why a VSAM data set is limited to 123 extents. Nine full Format 3 DSCBs can be used with a 10th Format 3 DSCB having only three of its possible 13 extent descriptor slots filled in. Somewhere else in MVS is the limit of 123 imposed. This limit came about when VSAM was invented along with making OS/360 use virtual storage. The system catalog's internal structure was redesigned at the same time to use VSAM in which to store catalog entries. So the limit of 123 extents, I believe, is related to some part of a VSAM catalog's internal structure. One DEB can have 255 different extent entries in it. They could theoretically all be on the same volume if there weren't the other constraint about 16 extents per volume for one data set. In fact they can be all on the same volume if multiple different data sets, all on one volume, are concatenated. Remember the DEB was invented in the mid-1960s also, long before VSAM came along with the new larger 123 extent limit. I don't know about the limit of 59 volumes per data set. The TIOT's constraint looks like a reasonable explanation.

Re: Fwd: 3494 Utilization
There can be two different capacities depending on what you are looking for. One is the 3494/ATL back end for a VTS. These tapes are generally permanently resident in the ATL. You can get an estimate of volume usage through the Library Manager. The second would be for a 'classic' ATL where tapes may be inserted/ejected as needed. Total capacity is dependent upon the number of tapes you have. The number of tapes in the ATL at any one time would just be for what is available for immediate use. Your best bet would be to get reports from your tape management system giving BLKSIZE and BLKCNT per dataset and calculate total GB/TB from there. Don't forget scratch files as they still take space on a real volume or VTS back end (unless you have release upon scratch set). If you are planning on changing tape technology to higher density media the calculation for the VTS back end should be fairly straight forward. GB/TB needed divided by 3 (average compression of 3:1 YMMV) divided by tape capacity then add a bit for spare and non-full tapes. Classic ATL removable volumes could be closer to a 1:1 conversion unless a majority of your files are multivolume.

Re: OT - Huge Maple Syrup heist solved.
Canada produces more than 80 percent of the world's maple syrup, producing about 26,500,000 litres (7,000,000 US gal) in 2004. The vast majority of this comes from the province of Quebec, which is the world's largest producer, with about 75 percent of global production totalling 24,660,000 litres (6,510,000 US gal) in 2005.[39] As of 2003, Quebec had more than 7,000 producers, collectively making over 24,000,000 litres (6,300,000 US gal) of syrup.[40] Production in Quebec is controlled through a supply management system, with producers receiving quota allotments from the Federation of Quebec Maple Syrup Producers (Fédération des producteurs acéricoles du Québec), which also maintains reserves of syrup.[41] Canada exports more than 9,400,000 litres (2,500,000 US gal) of maple syrup per year, valued at more than C$145 million.[24][42] The provinces of Ontario, Nova Scotia, New Brunswick, and Prince Edward Island produce smaller amounts of syrup.[39] The Canadian provinces of Manitoba and Saskatchewan produce maple syrup using the sap of the box elder or Manitoba maple (Acer negundo).[7] However, a Manitoba maple tree's yield is usually less than half that of a similar sugar maple tree.[43] Manitoba maple syrup has a slightly different flavour from sugar-maple syrup, because it contains less sugar and the tree's sap flows more slowly. Vermont is the biggest US producer, with over 1,140,000 US gallons (4,300,000 l) during the 2011 season, followed by New York with 564,000 US gallons (2,130,000 l) and Maine with 360,000 US gallons (1,400,000 l). Wisconsin, Ohio, New Hampshire, Michigan, Pennsylvania, Massachusetts, and Connecticut all produced marketable quantities of maple syrup of less than 120,000 US gallons (450,000 l) each in 2011.[44] As of 2003, Vermont produced about 5.5 percent of the global syrup supply.[40] Maple syrup has been produced on a small scale in some other countries, notably Japan and South Korea.[45] However, in South Korea in particular, it is traditional to consume maple sap, called gorosoe, instead of processing it into syrup.[46] Japan is a large importer of maple syrup: in 2010, 10.1 percent of Canada's maple syrup exports (a value of C$28 million) went to Japan.[47] -- This email message and any accompanying materials may contain proprietary, privileged and confidential information of CIT Group Inc. or its subsidiaries or affiliates (collectively, "CIT"), and are intended solely for the recipient(s) named above.

This should eliminate a timing issue. While LLA is down, the (new) directory will be searched on each fetch. Once LLA is back up, he will have an updated picture of where members are located. It's important to distinguish between an allocation change and a directory change. FETCH cares a whole lot about PDS extents. Only LLA cares about directory details. .

Compressing is a different issue and as long as Ken doesn't care about what may happen to jobs / tasks trying to use those modules while he is working with that data set, then all will be fine after he does the LLA refresh.The directory will be read again when refreshed, so the new blocks added will be picked up. And I've done this before, but you can run a simple test if you want to verify for yourself.

LLA REFRESH after increasing directory
Does anyone know if an LLA REFRESH will pick up increased directory blocks? I have a loadlib in linklist I need to refresh with all new members but the directory block allocation is too small. I can increase the number of directory blocks dynamically (CA-PDSMAN ALTERDIR function). The library itself will remain at its current space allocation (no additional extents) The question is if I increase the directory blocks, replace all members, will an LLA REFRESH pick up the increased directory allocation? Thanks all.

See if you can get the auditors to agree that you will apply all applicable (to your environment) PTFs flagged as a "Red Alert" within 30-60 days of availability. "Red Alerts" appear to be the closest the Mainframe has to "Patch Tuesday" This should limit your action to one PTF every couple of years. -- This email message and any accompanying materials may contain proprietary, privileged and confidential information of CIT Group Inc. or its subsidiaries or affiliates (collectively, "CIT"), and are intended solely for the recipient(s) named above.

Working Set = Real Frames + Aux Slots?
If I want to know the working set size of a task can I just add real storage frames in use and aux slots in use? Or is an aux slot not released until freemain or end of task? For example taskA is using 100 real storage frames then gets swapped out so 100 aux slots are used then is swapped back in. Do I now have 100 real frames and 100 aux slots? Yes I know that not all 100 frames would be sent to aux, just trying to keep the example simple. I am attempting to track gradual storage growth across many tasks. Up until last week we never paged so aux in use was zero for most asids. Something happened (not sure what yet) and lots of asids were stolen from with resulting usage of aux. Now when I add real + aux I see much higher allocation than before aux usage.
