No, and no.  LINKMVS prefixes the programmer-supplied parameter
with a halfword length field and passes the result as a single parameter
to the called program.  LINKPGM passes the programmer-supplied
parameter as-is to the called program (of course, nothing prevents
the programmer's supplying a halfword length field), and passes
that to the called program as a single parameter.  Neither passes
the length as a separate parameter.  Address LINK is entirely
different; I am not sure what address LINK would do for me.

SYS1.SAMPLIB contains an ICSF sample using LINKPGM.

Gil,

   Sorry for the delay.  We don't have ISRSUPC in the SYS1.LPALIB.  LINK 
worked, but I didn't figure out the error.

   LINKMVS has not failed in either of the two EXECs I used them in.

   Right now I don’t know why I’m getting this warning.  Perhaps SYSIN needs 
something in it? 

   ISRS010W ::   PROCESS OPTION PARAMETER IS NOT A VALID PROCESS OPTION.

   The examples from Sri work great!  They use LINKMVS.  I am not sure what

Yes, but I never claimed it was just REXX and TSO issues,
merely that there was a context in which EXEC worked but '%'

A string containing an unmatched apostrophe.  It's been a long time;
I can only re-create with a pointless example.  Here's my REXX exec:

It does seem odd that the CALL command would simply hang. But yes, I believe 
that LINKMVS will work in cases where CALL won't. 

I also believe that Dave meant I was told by IBM that I _have_ ISRSUPC in 
SYS1.LPALIB, rather than _don't have_.  CALL expects to find its target in the 
standard library search order (Tasklib (including STEPLIB/JOBLIB), Linklist) 
and I do not think it will find a module that is only in LPA. LINKMVS (also 
LINK, LINKPGM, and probably the ATTACH variants) will find things that are only 
in LPA, and I believe that explains why LINKMVS worked for him.

That shouldn't matter. From z/OS TSO/E Command Reference,

   *
   specifies that CALL should use the standard load module
   search sequence for the member name.

From z/OS MVS Programming: Assembler Services Guide, SA22-7605-1,
1.4.6.1.2  The Search for the Load Module:

   In response to your request for a copy of a load module, the
   control program searches the task's load list and the job pack
   area . If a copy of the load module is found, the control
   program determines whether that copy can be used (see Using an
   Existing Copy).  If an existing copy can be used, the search
   stops. If it cannot be used, the search continues until the
   module is located in a library or the link pack area . The load
   module is then brought into the job pack area or placed into the
   load list.

Mr. Metz,

   Thank you for suggesting LINK.  I don't know why CALL isn't working for me.  
I have ADDRESS TSO at the start of my EXEC.

 48 *-* CALL *(ISRSUPC)'FILECMP,DELTAL'
L   CALL *(ISRSUPC)'FILECMP,DELTAL'
 INVALID DATA SET NAME, *(ISRSUPC)'FILECMP
 INVALID KEYWORD, DELTAL'

   Kolusu, 

   I tried your link and it took me to appendix A in the ISPF Users Guide.  I 
tried searching for FILECMP and DELTAL.  I didn't find any information on these.

   I looked at the samples and the JCL has PARM=(DELTAL,LINECMP,'','').  I 
searched the whole users guide for LINECMP and only found this //COMPARE EXEC 
PGM=ISRSUPC,PARM=('LINECMP,CHNGL,UPDCNTL').  

Q).  Where can I find information on DELTAL and FILECMP?  I tried using 
CYTPE(FILE) but I get INVALID KEYWORD, CTYPE(FILE).  SUPERC offers four compare 
levels.  What book am I missing?



address LINK ISRSUPC 'FILECMP,DELTAL'
ISRS010W ::   PROCESS OPTION PARAMETER IS NOT A VALID PROCESS OPTION. IT 
IS IGNORED.
+++ RC(4) +++

Q).  RC 4 is a warning.  Erroneous input detected.  I looked at Table 24. 
Summary of process options.  I didn't see any that stood out.  Do I need a 
Process Option?  What do I need to do to get past the RC 4?

Hi Dave,

Acknowledging that an example for comparing two PDSEs may existing in the
z/OS V1R12.0 DFSMSdfp Utilities (SC26-7414-07) manual.

When I last looked at IEBCOMPR in the utilities manual, I notice the very
first paragraph is Recommendation: Use the SuperC utility instead of
IEBCOMPR. SuperC is part of
ISPF/PDF and the High Level Assembler Toolkit Feature. SuperC can be
processed in the foreground as well as in batch and its report is more
useful.

IEBCOMPR was never brilliant as it would stop after 10 consecutive errors,
which is easily induced if a record is deleted from a file.

2014-03-06 Thread Hansen, Dave L - Eagan, MN
Terry,

   Thank you for your update.  I am changing course away from IEBCOMPR and 
moving towards ISRSUPC.  I found our ISPF SAMPLIB that has ISRSCLST and 
ISRSPROC.  I would like to automate comparing a bunch of FONT libs.

   Our ISPF LOAD lib has ISRSUPC.  I tried TSOEXEC ISRSUPC in my EXEC.  It 
just hung.  I looked at what was required and I thought with the defaults that 
maybe something would complete.

   OK, I can do this.  I'll just call ISPF from my EXEC.  I tried ISPEXEC 
SELECT PGM(ISRSUPC).  I've done some panels, but I have not done much with 
calling ISPF programs.  This also just hung.

  My trace === 30 *-* ISPEXEC SELECT PGM(ISRSUPC)
L   ISPEXEC SELECT PGM(ISRSUPC)

   It looks like the example ISRSCLST.  But I didn't pass LISTING, CTYPE, or 
PROCESS.  They should default.


Q).  Both calls to ISRSUPC just hang.  Is there something in the environment I 
have not taken into consideration I need to setup?  Can ISRSUPC be called from 
either TSOEXEC and ISPEXEC?


  Thanks again for your insight,  Dave

Eek!

I've always just ALLOCATEd a couple DDNames and done address LINKMVS ISRSUPC.
(It may need a control file).  Works outside ISPF environment.

Caution:  RC indicates failure if the data sets match; success if they don't 
match
(it's all subjective).

RC 24 from ISRSUPC (Was 0C4 from TSOEXEC IEBCOMPR)

2014-03-06 Thread Hansen, Dave L - Eagan, MN
Dear Group,

   Ok, I got IEBCOMPR to work:

ALLOC FI(SYSUT1) DA('PMSBDH.VPS.LRS.AFP.V2R10.FDEFLIB') SHR
ALLOC FI(SYSUT2) DA('VPS.LRS.VPS.V2R10.FDEFLIB') SHR

CALL *(IEBCOMPR)
CC=RC
if cc  0 Then Do
SAY IEBCOMPR FAILED FOR AFP.V2R10.FDEFLIB
...
FREE FI(SYSUT1 SYSUT2 SYSIN SYSPRINT)

   With IEBCOMPR I look for a RC of 0.



   I found this site:  
http://computer-programming-forum.com/38-rexx/35af2e8f164fb280.htm and this 
EXEC:

/*   test si version prod et approd identique  */ 
say Test si version PROD et APPROD identique    
 address TSO alloc fi(newdd) da('A3ZP.PROD.CICS(pgm)') shr reu 
 address TSO alloc fi(olddd) da('A3WD.APPROD3.CICS(pgm)') shr reu 
 address tso call *(isrsupc) 
 if rc =  0 then   
   do 
 say version identique. 
   end 
   else   
   do 
 say ! VERSION PROD APPROD DIFFERENTES ! 
 exit 
   end

   Mostly this just hangs for me, but once I did get an RC of 24. In the 
ISPF User's Guide it says RC 24 is ERROR.  I/O Error writing to the output 
listing file.  

Q).  Does this Example need some more work?  

  


   I found some doc that said ISRSUPC was documented in the ISPF User guide. 
Vol 2.  I have been looking for where the KEYWORDS are listed for ISRSSUPC.  In 
appendix A they list some stuff.

   It says: The keywords and parameters are:
  CTYPE Specifies the compare type.  The parameter can be one 
of the SuperC compare types (File, Line, Word, or Byte).  To call the 
Search-For program, use CTYPE(SRCH).
  PROCESS  Specifies the process options
   OK, I want ISRSUPC to use a CTYPE of FILE to do a file level compare.


   I tried:

  CALL *(ISRSUPC) FILE
INVALID KEYWORD, FILE

  CALL *(ISRSUPC) CTYPE(FILE)
INVALID KEYWORD, CTYPE(FILE)FILE

   I saw PGM=ISRSUPC),PARM=(DELTAL,LINECMP,'','').  So I tried:

 CALL *(ISRSUPC) FILECMP
INVALID KEYWORD, FILECMP


Q).  Where are the Keyword and Parameters for SUPERC (aka ISRSUPC) found?


   Thanks again,  Dave

Dave, I don't see an ALLOC for DD SYSPRINT in the ISRSUPC code.  Note the text 
of the error for that RC=24 seems to agree:

RC 24 is ERROR.  I/O Error writing to the **output listing file**

Why? It's for commands.

Re: 0C4 from TSOEXEC IEBCOMPR

2014-03-05 Thread Jim Mulder
I am trying to compare two PDSEs.  I found Example 8: Compare Two
 PDSEs in the z/OS V1R12.0 DFSMSdfp Utilities (SC26-7414-07).  I am 
 trying to get IEBCOMPR to work from REXX like I got IEBCOPY to work.
 We are running z/OS V1R13.

  For one thing, you are invoking IEBCOMPR as a command processor,
and it may not be designed to deal with that interface.

  What happens if you do CALL *(IEBCOMPR) instead of
TSOEXEC IEBCOMPR  ?
