PUT2PROD SEGMENTS uses this architecture more or less, fires up the BLDSEG 
virtual machine, FORCE it off, logs it on again for a different segment. Same 
for BLDCMS machine but that is single purpose.
How about that - admiring PUT2PROD !

I have an EXEC I want to run but I need to be sure the user has
a certain amount of virtual storage before it can run. 
I can get this information  with PIPE and a  Q  V  STOR. 
If the storage is less than 50M then I want to increase the
storage to 50M.  Then I want the EXEC to continue on. 
Here is the code snippet. 

'cp define stor 50m' || '15'x || 'I CMS' || '15'x || 'srgmod'
mod_name 
  

The define stor  works ok, the I CMS works ok but it won't run
the srgmod  EXEC  (mod_name is an arg I supply) 
Is this because when the I CMS runs it clears storage, resets
pointers or something? 
If so, is there a way I can accomplish this?

2007-01-10 Thread Brian Nielsen
Here's an exec I wrote back in 1986, called SYSEXEC EXEC, to easily and 

flexibly customize what code would run on various userids when they 
started up.  It will adapt easily to what you want to do.

/* This exec checks for a file with filename=userid  filetype=SYSEXEC
 */
/* If found, this file is loaded into storage as SYSUSE EXEC. */
/* After execution of the SYSUSE EXEC it is removed from storage. */
set cmstype ht
'EXECLOAD' userid() 'SYSEXEC X SYSUSE EXEC ( PUSH'
IF rc=0
THEN DO
set cmstype rt
'SYSUSE'
'EXECDROP SYSUSE EXEC'
 END
set cmstype rt


You will need to have the userid(s) that need this feature run the SYSEXE
C 
EXEC at some point during their SYSPROF/PROFILE processing.  The above is
 
geared to only use SYSEXEC filetypes on the X-disk, and I had it hooked i
n 
such that I could insure what the X-disk was when it was called.  If your
 
needs are simple you could use it only on the userid in question and 
modify it to look on the userid's A-disk instead.

You'll want to modify your srgmod EXEC to copy itself to file "userid 
SYSEXEC" before you IPL CMS and to otherwise delete "userid SYSEXEC".  Of
 
course, the file name pattern of "userid SYSEXEC" fit my needs and you ar
e 
free to change it if a different pattern suits you (perhaps "srgmod 
SYSEXEC").

I guess Neale would wish you things that involve a big black dog ;-)

If trying to be helpful involves messing with the user's PROFILE EXEC,
to me that means you need to rethink what you're trying to achieve.
Depending on the complexity of the user's PROFILE EXEC your trick may
or may not work. Even when you add the code to handle the case when
the DEFINE does not work. And what are you going to do after the
program finished? Change it back to something the old value or leave
it like this? Would it be an option to set the directory default for
those users?

If you really have to do it like this, I would consider to establish a
safe environment by a rename of the original PROFILE and creation of a
new one that only does its things, and rename back again after you're
done. And prepare to take calls from users who lost their PROFILE EXEC
without knowing why..

If you could plan well ahead, you might be able to add logic to the
SYSPROF to recognize various situations and properly deal with them
(through some exits).

"Fiddling" with the user's PROFILE EXEC might be easier using the 
following code (I don't remember where I got it - but probably from 
someone on this list). 

The initiating command could 'CP DEFINE STOR 50M' || '15'x || 'CP IPL CMS 
PARM AUTOCR RUNCMD{EXEC SRGMOD' mod_name'}'

The code added to the user's PROFILE EXEC (and it can't, as written, be 
some EXEC called from PROFILE) could look like... 
--
/* Find how far back SYSPROF is in calling chain (if at all) */ 
 level = -1 
 do i = 1 
call csl 'DMSCALLR cslrc callee i' 
if cslrc = 0 then do 
   if space(callee) = 'EXEC SYSPROF' then do 
  level = i-1 
  leave 
   end 
end 
else leave 
 end 
 
 /* If SYSPROF is a caller, get its vars */ 
 if level >= 0 then do 
'PIPE (endchar ! name iplparms)', 
   '| rexxvars' level, 
   '| drop 1', 
   '| specs 3-* 1', 
   '| join 1 Xfe', 
   '| specs Xfe 1 /SYSPROF._/ next  1-* next', 
   '| varload' 
/* Some things you might do with SYSPROF's vars: */ 
insparms = strip(left(sysprof._insparms,64)) 
say 'IPL parms:' insparms   /* Just to show some 
SYSPROF stuff */ 
if sysprof._insflags <> '' & sysprof._insflags <> 'AUTOCR' 
then say 'INSFLAGS:' sysprof._insflags  /* Just to show some 
SYSPROF stuff */ 
insflags=sysprof._insflags 
if sysprof._cp_keyword <> 'NOTREIPL' 
then say 'CP_KEYWORD:' sysprof._cp_keyword  /* Just to show some 
SYSPROF stuff */ 
if symbol('SYSPROF._USR_CMD') = 'VAR' 
then if sysprof._usr_cmd <> '' 
then say 'First command:' sysprof._usr_cmd  /* Just to show some 
SYSPROF stuff */ 
 end  
--
in the user's PROFILE EXEC, you should then be able to (untested):
--
parse var iplparms left 'RUNCMD{'runcmd'}' right   /* Extract just the 
command */
iplparms=left right   /* Replace IPLPARMS var without runcmd 
stuff */
runcmd  /* Execute passed command, or 
NOP  */

How about:
1) adding ''srgmod" to the user's PROFILE EXEC
2) 'cp define stor 50m' || '15'x || 'I CMS PARM AUTOCR'
3) have the exec REMOVE ITSELF from the profile!!

(Or set up a front end to do all three)

How about the following per CP Messages and Codes version 5 release 2

The processor controller can only perform a minimum subset of functions.
Follow local procedures for reporting a processor controller problem.

 

Explanation: The processor controller has reported a change in its
operation. If this message occurs at IPL of z/VM after a change to the
processor, this message can be ignored. If this message occurs after IPL
during normal operations, the processor controller has encountered a
problem and can now only perform a minimum subset of functions.

 

System action: System operation continues. However, functions that use
the processor controller, for example VARY PROCESSOR and IOCP commands,
may not succeed.

 

Operator response: Follow local procedures for reporting a processor

   controller problem.  
 

 
 Explanation: The processor controller has reported a change in its
operation.
 If this message occurs at IPL of z/VM after a change to the processor,
this  
 message can be ignored. If this message occurs after IPL during normal 
 
 operations, the processor controller has encountered a problem and can
now   
 only perform a minimum subset of functions.
 

 
 System Action: System operation continues. However, functions that use
the   
 processor controller, for example VARY PROCESSOR and IOCP commands, may
not  
 succeed.   
 

 
 Operator Response:  Follow local procedures for reporting a processor  
 
 controller problem.

Unexpected DEFINE NIC Results

2007-01-10 Thread Scully, William P
Sometimes CP doesn't do what you expect.  Here's an example where I
needed the NIC for z/OS to be at address 1344 rather than 0D00.  Not
hard to fix dynamically... Let's try: 


q vswitch intrav6 details

OK, one down, two to go, (now that I have my technique down pat):


cp send cp mvsxe49 detach nic d00

Thanks, Roland.   

A slight correction - VM63968 is not intended to address any DB2 server
abends, it only addresses server / system hangs and hopefully some of the

performance problems seen with the VM63968 circumvention with which many
z/VM 5.2.0 DB2 customers are running.  The VM63968 circumvention is
available to any customer that needs it, and it reduces the hang exposure
 to
effectively zero, but can potentially impact system performance negativel
y.
  The latest version of the VM63968 fix itself is just about ready for
fixtest, the PTF will hopefully be generally available within the next mo
nth
or so.

The known fixes for DB2 server abends are VM63978 (available since June
2006) and now newly opened APAR VM64120, which is not yet closed, but for

which a fixtest is available.  z/VM 5.2.0 DB2 customers should certainly 
be
advised to apply VM63978 if they haven't already (regardless of hardware
level), and VM64120 when it becomes available (which should not be much
longer).   There are still some open questions whether there are any DB2
functional exposures even with these two fixes applied, and we are active
ly
working on trying to answer those questions.

Caution: user migrating DB2/VM server to z/VM 5.20 running in z9 hardware with VMDSS enabled

2007-01-10 Thread Roland P. Chung
To all DB2/VM server users: several instances of DB2/VM server abends with 
ARIYI36 05 
have been reported to IBM lately when users migrated their DB2/VM servers to 
z/VM 5.20 running in a z9 hardware with VMDSS enabled.
   
  VM APAR VM63968 has been opened to address this problem.
   
  IBM z/VM development is currently, with the assistance of DB2 for VSE&VM 
Team, testing the fix for VM APAR VM63968.
   
  DB2/VM server's ARIYI36 05 abend is an "after the fact" situation. That 
means, DB2/VM server detects an "inconsistance" between the BDISK and the 
DBEXTENT when it requests CP to bring in a datapage from the DBEXTENT. With 
VMDSS support enabled, CP is responsible to move datapage between 
DASD(DBEXTENT) and dataspace then DB2/VM server moves the datapage from 
dataspace to its buffer for processing.The error could have been:  
  1) CP returns an incorrect datapage 
  2) the datapage returned has been previously stored on DASD incorrectly by CP
   
   
  If a user would like to migrate DB2/VM server to z/VM 5.20 running in a z9 
hardware BEFORE the official PTF for APAR  VM63968 is available, the 
recommendation is:
   
  1) apply all available MCLs to z9 box;
  2) apply all current VM APARs/PTFs, especially VM63978/UM31822;
  3) disable VMDSS support in DB2/VM server;
  4) if not possible to disable VMDSS support in DB2/VM server, the DB2/VM 
server should be archived more frequency.

Re: VM system console remotely

2007-01-10 Thread Huegel, Thomas
Since you are bringing up 5.2 you must be on a 'z-box' if the HMC is
configured with a valid IP address and you have a sign-on that allows remote
access and has the necessary privilages ie SYSPROG you can use your browser
to get into the HMC and IPL your system from there. Be sure to create a 3270
session on the HMC and set that address as the VM console.
 
I think all that stuff works.

It depends. Is the data center 300 miles south near a sandy beach, or is it

Seriously.
Is the 5.2 install going to be first or second level? 
Second level should be no problem, just telnet to your first level and then
dial to the second level (5.2) for the install.

Re: IBMLink 2000 Sending Files to my VM Reader

2007-01-10 Thread Jim Vincent
One option you can do is get the wget utility for Windows (see
http://www.gnu.org/software/wget/ ).  It will allow you to get content from
https (ssl) sites.   For instance, I have a little ditty that I use to grab
the current WAN IP address assigned on my home wireless router (which uses
https) via:

wget https://192.168.1.1/Status_Router.asp --no-check-certificate
--user=vincenj --password= --connect-timeout=2 --tries=1

Works like a champ.

For VM tools, there are other options like the current version of Charlotte
with SSL support.   I have not dug into that one yet, but would like to
someday when things get quieter here... hahaha!   Since WebRover uses the
Charlotte engine, I'd like to get WebRover to be able to do SSL too.
WebRover lets you get http/ftp content via a Pipe stage so it can be
manipulated quick and easy.
