Let me know what you think When you create ACS code you can put WRITE statements into the process for clarification. Is it possible to capture those WRITEs in an automation product, OPS/MVS, AFOPER, Tivoli, and action the message? If a user is creating a dataset and using an invalid DSN, I could put a write statement in the code that says WRITE MYACS001I Invalid DSN for the storage group requested. Then if it went to SYSLOG I could capture it and send an email to the storage team for review. Or if my user was requesting way to much space for a specify storage pool, I could do something similar. So, it would be nice, in my opinion, to be able to create an event notification that an automation tool could capture and then perform some action (i.e. email the storage team) I understand that I can redirect to a different pool and provide other actions within ACS code. But since a lot of logging goes directly to the DFHSM logs or SYSOUT DDs, I have to have someone manually review to identify what is going on. Another example, there is an ARC0019I message that indicates the CELLS are too small for DFHSM. It is only in the SYSOUT DDs. I will be opening a SHARE requirement to be able to redirect these types of messages to SYSLOG so that an automation tool can send a notification to the storage team. The only way I see of doing it is to filter the output of the task to find the ACS code WRITE statements or filter the DFHSM SYSOUT DDs. Any thoughts are welcome. And if you have any other messages or functions in DFHSM that might need redirection, let me know.

Greetings to all ! On our site we have installed a new TS3500 tape library. When we submit a backup job, the robot inside the library is not picking up the tape using the barcodes (As of now, we are manually moving the tapes to the drive). Also the drive is not ejecting the tape out(moving it to empty slot) after a successful read/write operation. What could be the problem here ?

WLM Managed Initiators, enhanced management.
Hello group, I have implemented WLM Managed Initiators years ago and I found it a problem, that WLM stops managing batch when I need it most: when all systems are (near) full. Searching for options to do some dynamic management myself, I found this beautiful presentation: WLM Functions for Dynamic Workload Routing, from 11 Mar 2014 Session 15217, of course again by Horst Sinram. https://www.google.nl/url?sa=trct=jq=esrc=ssource=webcd=6ved=0CEIQFjAFurl=https%3A%2F%2Fshare.confex.com%2Fshare%2F122%2Fwebprogram%2FHandout%2FSession15217%2FS15217_WLM_RouteMe.pdfei=7as3VMqUHsflaPHcgbgDusg=AFQjCNEfToekVYDhUw5duIoydnlLgHQRAQsig2=khCcGAcoFrQfagXfNSNAewbvm=bv.76943099,d.d2scad=rjt It describes exactly what I want WLM to do when managing batch in full systems. Is there any chance that WLM Managed Initiators will be enhanced with this function? Or should the enhancement be to JES2? Has anybody actually implemented this or a similar enhancement to WLM managed initiators? Or JES2? Thanks, Kees. For information, services and offers, please visit our web site: http://www.klm.com.

No, it's not explainable unless you tolerate irresponsibility. It could have been done right when the decision was made to do it at all. The function should have been provided in Allocation so it would be available alike to ISPF, SVC99, TSO ALLOCATE, BPXWDYN, and Batch JCL. Then we got problems with batch updating PDS's that were in use constantly by ISPF users, which was solved by batch updating the PDS with DISP=SHR, which corrupted a PDS once in every 1000 to 100 times. Really!? Shocking! When I confronted the problem, with a naive caution I resorted to invoking ISPF LM services in batch IKJEFT01 to preserve integrity. Then PDSMAN intercepted disp=shr batch by adding the SPFEDIT enq and the linkage editor was doing likewise. And even ISPF and linkage editor don't use the same ENQ. (I believe ISPF uses both if RECFM=U.) Alas, PDSMAN appears to be an ISV product, and can't be relied on to be available in every customer shop. And we, as an ISV, may be compelled to test twice, once for compatibility with PDSMAN, and once for integrity absent PDSMAN. Now we have come to the chaos you describe and yes, someone with a supervising view could have stopped this trend and decided to do this at platform level, but this did not happen. It's never too late. It is like a couple of guys developing a communication protocol for their computer connections that suited their needs, but now it is used as 'internet' and the total world economy depends on it, it should have been developed differently.

Re: PDSE member profile
Yes!. In our group, we all have activated an 'initial macro' that sets for certain datasets some of the attributes we require, like STATS, AUTOSAVE OFF PROMPT (to avoid PF3's unintentionally saving modifications). About what you call IBM chaos: if you look at the history of these features, it is explainable how things grew this way. First there was no (I)SPF, but there were member statistics as save by the linkage editor etc. Then came (I)SPF and they at some point in time found it useful to save statistics, for ISPF use only. Then they developed their own enq's (SPFEDIT) for editing several members in a PDS while holding the PDS with DISP=SHR. Then we got problems with batch updating PDS's that were in use constantly by ISPF users, which was solved by batch updating the PDS with DISP=SHR, which corrupted a PDS once in every 1000 to 100 times. Then PDSMAN intercepted disp=shr batch by adding the SPFEDIT enq and the linkage editor was doing likewise. Now we have come to the chaos you describe and yes, someone with a supervising view could have stopped this trend and decided to do this at platform level, but this did not happen. It is like a couple of guys developing a communication protocol for their computer connections that suited their needs, but now it is used as 'internet' and the total world economy depends on it, it should have been developed differently.

John, I usually hate replies, that don't answer the question, but instead state: why don't you try it this way. However, this time I would like to ask some 'what are you doing' questions, in spite of your last remark. 1. The product that produces the CMFCPU13/14/15 messages also produces your RMF 72 records. From those I produce all my statistics on quarterly or hourly intervals, be it through CA MICS, but you can do it also via SAS / MXG (or some RMF reporting tool I believe). You can even download the SMF records to your Linux or Windows system and process them with SAS or a similar product. Did you try this? 2. What conclusions do you want to pull out of the figures? You know, that these 'LPAR is capped' figures have only a slight relation with the performance of those LPARs. If you have a road sign stating there is a speed limit of 100 m/h, that road is 'capped', but the capping won't hardly create performance problems.

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!). Third, most difficult, how do I create that graph from the information. My original data source is the SYSLOG that we unload to a disk data set.

Re: How to? Designing a graph of information
I believe I remember from posts that people are processing SMF records with DFSORT to produce reports. Anyway, the RMF records contain way more info that you get from the CMFCPU* messages. It might be worth to try to get some SMF processing running in your Linux hobby shed. I know it is done with a tool called WPS, but I don't know it. At times of overload, the lowest IMPs will suffer. Instead of stopping jobs, you could try to assign a lower IMP to a group of them. This causes them to be nearly stopped at times of overload, but to continue running when there is CPU available. I see the relation of stopping jobs with the 4HA management. However, in my experience it is difficult to manage it such in one hour, that you have enough saved for the next hour. But this is in our configuration, yours will be different. You could emphasize more on performance (SLAs) than on capping. This way you can show, that the capping is producing dollars, without impacting the SLAs. I see you are also squeezed by customers' performance demands and management's dollars demands.

You can even download the SMF records to your Linux or Windows system and process them with SAS or a similar product. Did you try this? No. We have no software on z/OS which can _easily_ do anything. We had SAS/MXG long ago. Too expensive!. All that I have in my quiver right now on z/OS are COBOL and HLASM. My heavy artillery is on my Linux desktop: Perl, awk, PostgreSQL relational data base, R language (conceptually similar to SAS, but not the same language). 2. What conclusions do you want to pull out of the figures? You know, that these 'LPAR is capped' figures have only a slight relation with the performance of those LPARs. If you have a road sign stating there is a speed limit of 100 m/h, that road is 'capped', but the capping won't hardly create performance problems. This is a bit more difficult. The original spark was from one of our Production Control people. She basically wanted to look at whether it would be helpful in any way to reduce our active initiator count during certain time frames. So I was going to use the LPAR capping as a time when the CEC is overloaded. If the CEC is overloaded, then it wouldn't hurt to reduce the number of active initiators. And it might actually help because then individual jobs would probably finish a bit sooner, there being less multi-job overhead. Again, we are grasping at straws for CPU sometimes. Another thing which is a biggie is the 4 hour rolling average MSU. Why? Because if we are running below our cap, then we are saving up MSUs. What this does is mean that we can use some of these saved MSUs to exceed our Group Capacity for a short time to cover some times where we get a CPU spike. Having MSUs in the bank gives our managers Production Control people warm fuzzies and good feelings. Like I feel when I have a full tank of gas in the car (or my tummy grin/). Also, for whatever reason, IT management (my boss, his colleagues, and higher managers) seem to have a thing about the machine being capped. So this is just one way to try to present information to them that they seem to want. IOW, I get an attaboy award for a pretty graph. For me, personally, I don't care about performance until we start missing SLAs. Production Control wants jobs finished as fast as possible so that problems are detected earlier and there is more time to fix them before we get dinged for missing an SLA. In the main, this means that we end up finishing early. We are doing a lot of strange, and perhaps even foolish, things. The reason is that IT management wants to decrease our MSU max, because for each reduction of 1 MSU, we get a price break of $12,000 / year. Seems little, but we are scrounging pennies.

Re: CSV019I Clarification
No, there is not: look at it the other way: if I have a steplib or steplib concatenation, that is not authorized and does not need to be, I can add an authorized library to it without any problems. The reason for adding the library could be, that I need a non-authorized module from it. Mixing authorized and non-authorized libraries makes the concatenation non-authorized. If the applications needs it to be authorized, then and only then, you have created a problem.

Re: Auxiliary Storage Allocation - Inconsistent Numbers?
Well, if you do PAGEADDs, and especially PAGEDELs and replace pagevolumes, figures become very complicated. ASM has a very curious algorithm of administrating where pages reside when you think you moved them from one page dataset to another. They are not moved at the same time in ASM's administration. I would suggest to IPL your system and check the numbers again on a not manipulated page configuration.

IIRC, ISMF complicates this even more by dividing once by 1000 and then each time by 1024 to convert from bytes to kbytes, Mbytes and Gbytes. And even the bytes number can cause discussion: how many bytes do you calculate for a track: the physical limit of 56664, as ISMF does but which is impossible to achieve or the real achievable number dependent on blksize, e.g. 55840 for lrecl=80. However, when you are consistent in your calculations, all will give the same percentage. I don't worry about those details: we manage many TB's and don't care if they are 68%, 70% or 72% filled, this is fine and 88%, 90% and 92% are both bad. Kees.

Re: How often does SMS update its free space information?
Mike, I used the wrong term 'reorg'. The job did a load-replace. In this case the old dataset is deleted and the new one allocated and filled. Therefor it should be able to reuse the old space, *if* SMS is aware of the new free space on the 'old' volume. Apparently it isn't. Your explanation that SMS updates its statistics when allocating a dataset (and apparently not when a dataset is deleted) explains why the new space on the 'old' volume will not be seen by SMS until the 150 sec. update cycle. Which is a pity for accurate and quick space management.

Re: How often does SMS update its free space information?
David, Good hint for Interval and Dinterval. I found the following: INTERVAL(nnn) SMS on the command-issuing system is to allow nnn seconds (1 to 999) to pass before synchronizing with the other SMS subsystems running on other MVS systems in the complex. The default value from SMS initialization is 15 seconds. This parameter applies only to the system issuing the command. DINTERVAL(nnn) Directs SMS to allow nnn seconds (1 to 999) to elapse between reading device statistics from a 3990-3 control unit. The default is 150 seconds. 15 seconds is the interval for updating the commds (I suppose) to inform other members. 150 seconds is the interval to update the volume statistics. It seems, that if DBM1 deletes a dataset from a volume, SMS will not be informed of the new free space info of that volume. In this scenario, with large tablespaces, we could need extra space on other volumes for the entire tablespace, just because SMS is not aware of the fact that DBM1 just made space available for the new allocation. SRM and lists are not relevant here. All enabled volumes are on the same, well performing, DS8800 and therefor in the primary list, so they are all equal, but SMS still selects from the secondary list. This can only be the case if all volumes in the primary list are above their thresholds. We are z/OS 1.13. I was warned by my DB2 colleague about my wording: i.s.o Reorg I should have written Load-Replace. This deletes a part of the table space, allocates it again and fills it. So the space can be reused. Thanks, Kees. -Original Message- From: IBM Mainframe Discussion List [mailto:IBM-MAIN@LISTSERV.UA.EDU] On Behalf Of David Devine Sent: Wednesday, April 09, 2014 15:21 To: IBM-MAIN@LISTSERV.UA.EDU Subject: Re: How often does SMS update its free space information? Hi Kees, if you issue a d sms,options command it'll display your current settings and dinterval is the one in to look for; it probably has the default setting of 150 seconds. However i think your issue is more fundamental. From dfsms implementing System-managed storage SMS interfaces with the system resource manager (SRM) to select from the eligible volumes in the primary volume list. SRM uses device delays as one of the criteria for selection and does not prefer a volume if it is already allocated in the jobstep. This is useful for batch processing when the data set is accessed immediately after creation. It is, however, not useful for database data that is reorganized at off-peak hours. Which implies that if you are reorging a tablespace with multiple physical datasets, extents or partitions and these are allocated to you reorg job, it wont touch the packs they are on even if they have enough freespace. Info on primary, secondary, tertiary volume lists are in the same manual. I believe that quiesced volumes go into the secondary pool. B.T.W what z/os version are you on? I seem to recall that older versions used to treat enabled and quiesced volumes the same. And finally there is the way your reorgs run. My underatanding is that the reorg allocates a copy dataset, populates it, applies any updates, flips it over to become the true dataset (also renaming the original) and if the flip is succesful, then deletes the original. It sounds like you are expecting to reuse space that has been deleted by the first successful partition reorg and so on for further reorgs and if the allocation remains on the pack until step end, then it wont happen. hope this is of use. kind regards, Dave ** Hello group, We see that new datasets are being allocated by SMS on volumes, which we cannot explain.

We use the Overflow flag on a defined spill group for this type of reporting.

Re: SMS Question
I think I know what you run into: are the errors related to authorization? DFDSS has a very irritating habit to do something with the original volser if it is online. If you make sure the original volser from the production lpar is offline on your sandbox lpar, it should work. Of course supposing that the ACS routines will supply a storage group to the dataset to be restored.

One possibility, which I DO NOT recommend, would be to change the value of a symbol you are interested in to one that is invalid in the context it is used.

Re: Can we logon to TSO witout having TN3270 up ?
Regarding: Once you have the READY prompt you *ARE* logged on to TSO. I think this points out a misconception about mainframes from people that are used to work with *nix systems. The question in this thread was: (I always thought that TN3270 was pre-requisite for anybody) to logon via TSO I remember a question in another tread: How do I logon to the mainframe? The big difference to notice is: You logon to a *nix system via Telnet or so. You don't logon to a mainframe. You logon to an application on a mainframe. So, you don't logon *via* TSO, you logon *to* TSO. Maybe this helps in terminology misunderstandings.

Rephrasing: TN3270 is merely TCPIP on one side and VTAM/SNA on the other... TN3270 receives TCPIP requests on one side and translates to VTAM/SNA on the other. (BTW, VTAM also supports BISYNC). Other points: Once you have the READY prompt you *ARE* logged on to TSO. TELNET (dnsname or ip addr) invokes a TCPIP connection to the target, thus would require a TELNET or TN3270 server on the target. TN3270 used to be a part of the TCP/IP address space, but was moved (mandatory) to a separate address space circa z/OS 1.9. snip VTAM is the pre-req, not TN3270. It depends on the method of *TERMINAL* attachment. If via VTAM, TN3270 is not needed for anything/ TN3270 is merely TCPIP on one side and SNA on the other... VTAM? SNA? I don't know the distinction.

Re: BLDL 0 and LLA managed datasets/CSVLLIX1
Can you explain, what you are looking for? As I said before, LLA is transparent to the application, so you will probably not see it at all. There are so many things that are LLA related, like: was the directory cached / was the library VLF eligible / did the module come from VLF etc. etc. which are all hidden because of the LLA transparency.

He rolls down the window (this particular airplane happens to have roll-down windows) and yells to a person inside the building, Where are we? The person responds In an airplane! The pilot then banks sharply to the right, circles twice, and makes a perfect landing at Atlanta International. As the passengers emerge, shaken but unhurt, one of them says to the pilot, I'm certainly glad you were able to land safely, but I don't understand how the response you got was any use.

Re: Sysplex Common Time Source
As I recall it, all time references in a sysplex must be within a certain tolerance and this is ensured by requiring them to be connected to a single time source (ETR ID), not 2 sources that are equal within a certain tolerance. Kees. -Original Message- From: IBM Mainframe Discussion List [mailto:IBM-MAIN@LISTSERV.UA.EDU] On Behalf Of Staller, Allan Sent: Friday, February 07, 2014 15:03 To: IBM-MAIN@LISTSERV.UA.EDU Subject: Re: Sysplex Common Time Source ISTR that all time references in a SYSPLEX must be within a certain tolerance (I have no recollection of the actual value). If the local time source exceeded this tolerance, the ETR (STP/9037) would guide them to the same value, or failing that , remove the system from the plex. The act of syncing the STP and the 9037 to the same time ETR might/might not provide sufficient accuracy. HTH, snip That was what we originally though too, but our local IBM support person told us we couldn't. Thinking further about configuration activities to migrate to mixed CTN mode, I'm not seeing how on the non STP capable processor we're going to be able to set the name of the mixed CTN, since it isn't going to have the STP tab for that CEC, I'm not sure that that matters. IIRC, the requirement is that all systems in the sysplex get their time from the same source. As long as the z10 gets it from the timers, and there's another CEC in the CTN getting it from the same timers and acting as the primary time server for the CTN, I believe that would work. z10 - timer zEC12 - timer | Primary time server \/ STP other STP CECs Before STP, there was no STP tab on the HMC and the CECs were able to participate in the sysplex by virtue of using the same timer. I *think* the migration would be to make the time source the timer connected to one zEC12, make that the PTS, then add the z10 pointing to the timer. But I haven't read the fine manuals for some time, and it seems like the PTS becomes a sinle point of failure, unless at least one other machine in the CTS has a timer connection too. The point about the mixed mode CTN being envisioned as a fall-back situation, not an expected long-term situation is also good one. And if IBM is telling you no, it's hard to argue that you'd want to try to do it.

Re: System Symbols Question
If PL/I does this, it will probably be well understood by PL/I programmers, but maybe not by others. Rexx has its own way, which will probably be well understood by Rexx programmers, but maybe not by others. System Symbol coders may belong to one or both of the above groups or to none of them. So in this case it is safest to assume nothing and apply the rules strictly, i.e. assign correctly or abend.

It works well, at least where it is understood. Complaints about it among PL/I programmers have not occurred with any interesting frequency. I am happy that Peter Relson notes that the adoption of just this convention is being considered for system symbols. About Peter's other reactions to my posts I have only one comment. I am a sworn enemy of the C nul-delimited string of conceptually unlimited length . I am not an enemy but rather a friend of the halfword [or, in principle, fullword] current-length prefixed, i.e., PL/I character varying, string, that may have any length L in the interval 0 = L = X, where X is the allocated or declared maximal length and for halfword prefixes X = 2^15 - 1 = 32767.

It's probably would also be a similarly good rule of thumb that you shouldn't let your GPs get over 50% busy with the most important system-related work. And having more dispatchable CPUs than less has been better in my experience. One small point though relative to your blog post: each DDF transaction actually now creates two enclaves: an indepedent enclave and a work-dependent enclave. It seems that the work-dependent enclave runs only on the GCP and does 40% of the work, while the independent enclave runs 100% on the zIIP and does 60% of the work. But it does appear from the doc and data that work dependent enclave CPU time is captured in the indepedent enclave CPU time buckets, which makes sense.

Assignments and therefor truncations can occur anywhere at any time (IEASYM at IPL, or with SYMUPDTE during the life of the system). I rather have a couple of abends if I do something wrong, than time consuming searches for who set the symbol and had it truncated during the previous weeks of the life of the system.
