Re: Printing HTML source
A short while ago I asked if there was any VM tool to convert HTML source into print format. The only options that came up was to run a converter under Linux. While I would expect this to give a good quality print result, this was over the top for what we needed. I have now developed a prototype PIPE stage that converts the HTML source into 1403 style LISTING format. This is still work in progress but it currently handles most of the HTML generated by B2H (including tables). Naturally, the output is low resolution as it is constrained by the limits of line printer style format. This meets our requirements to directly print a readable version of the formatted HTML. I would, in no way, claim that it is currently a comprehensive solution but it could be developed that way if there is any interest in this. If anyone is interested in this development then please let me know.

Re: MAINTENANCE
One other good technique for minimising the number of disks you have to map to move data is to define an ISLINK over an attached CTC between the 2nd level system and one of the 1st level systems. You can then use SFS to move files. I seem to remember an EXEC tool that would copy an entire tree from one pool to another. (Where tree could be a filespace, or subset thereof, from some point and down). Is this my imagination, or can someone jog my memory? I have an ISLINK set up to my new 5.3 system, and I would like to copy various stuff. Thanks, Shimon (who just got email working after an...

Re: How to insert zvse4 installation tapes without barcode label on 3953/3584 library
I don't understand the use of the words insert into the library. I never wanted to make my installation tapes part of the *library*, I just wanted to mount the tape on a drive, and COPY it to a tape that IS part of my library. For that I used the stand alone device function of the 3494. So, do I understand correctly that this other library system will ONLY allow one to mount a library volume, never an outside tape It may also be known as a foreign tape or alien tape mounting option. If not, that's a big oversight. Tapes come from (and go to) the outside all the time in some shops. [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: we knew this option on the 3494. Before we had also this library. You can insert an unlabeled cartridge into the 3584 library but the 9353 library manager will reject it. It has no longer the options you mentioned from the 3494. kind regards Franz Josef Pohlen Mark Pace schrieb: I don't know about those 2 devices, but, the 3494 has 2 different methods for that.

Re: Ops privs
This is just what I would say (except for VM:Secure rather than RACF). Shimon I want to wind back a bit on this one:- We do use RACF as an ESM and we do use LOGONBY (controlled by RACF profiles) extensively. I understand that any user with LOGONBY authority can log on and give any of the commands mentioned but we would be extremely unhappy about these users being able to give those commands on behalf of that user without logging on. This should not be the assumption and, if it becomes so, then there should be an easy way to revert to the current status :- There are 2 issues here :- 1. Visibility Searching RACF audit record is no substitute for seeing the commands entered on the console of the user. 2. Serialisation Insisting the user logs on (LOGONBY) ensures that they (and only they) have control of that user at that time.\ I would be OK with the ability to enable the behaviour suggested but I would be very unhappy for it to be the default that we had to find a workaround for.

Re: Ops privs
Late to the party (I must have been in the other room that David was searching for), but adding on to Colin's reply below: I certainly do not want a user to be able to FORCE another simply because they have LOGONBY authority We wrote a mod to CP to prevent users with PRIVCLAS 'N' from completing LOGOFF as expected, the CP mod changes the LOGOFF to DISCONNECT. VTAM, GCS, and select other svms have been assigned class 'N' here (after experiencing accidental and undesirable LOGOFF of those svms by errant sysprogs of many backgrounds). I empathize with Alan's original intention: making it easier to manage userids that you have access to logon anyway.

So, is the 2GB file size limit on FTP transfers a limitation in the z/ VM FTP client, or in the FTP server? I just tried to do a large VM-VM FTP and it crapped out at 2GB, which is why I'm asking. Adam
Re: Augh
Hi, Adam. I am not sure that there *is* a file size limit on either the FTP client or server. Are you sure you simply did not fill up the file system your where FTPing to?

Re: Augh
Well, there **used** to be an undocumented 2G limit to FTP transfers into VM. The error messages indicated that the disk was full. But that was supposed to have been fixed a long time ago. Are you 100% positive that you are using the current CMS FTP client and server code (can't remember the guilty party) - nothing leftover lying around?

Re: Another z/VM OSA question
z/VM TCP/IP can use any OSA you can find. Try it :-)http://www.rvdheij.nl/osacard.jpg Sir Rob ... I AM NEVER gonna let the Cat Herder call me geek again!! Eques James ... Look!

The server system, as it happens, reported that FTPSERVE had been forced by SYSTEM after 2G were transferred. It's a 5.2 system with pretty close to the current maintenance on it. Adam

The CMS EDF (minidisk and SFS) file system has a limit of 2**31-1 records. For RECFM F, the records can be a maximum of 2**31-1 bytese. RECFM V is limited to an LRECL of 64K. That said, the FTP server has no way to buffer a text line (record) anywhere near 2G in size since that's the maximum size of the FTP server virtual machine. A large binary transfer should go through just fine, however, since the FTP server breaks it up into 64K chunks. If it got FORCED BY SYSTEM, something is strange since the port monitor should have recycled a broken server long before the timebomb went off. Hopefully the TCPIP and FTPSERVE console logs have more info. Alan Altmark z/VM Development IBM Endicott
