Re: XEDIT Question
The SET NULLS ON tells XEDIT to not translate null characters to blanks. It does not affect the showing of unwanted trailing blanks when you have 'verify h n *' in effect.

Re: HyperPAV use with full pack MDISK allocation
When Linux sees PAV is available, it can issue more than one I/O to a disk. Otherwise Linux will queue the I/O. In such a case CP can exploit PAV only when multiple guests have minidisks on the same pack. So: it depends, CP's PAV support can not replace PAV in a guest. 2009/10/2 Krueger Richard > Thank you all for the input.

Re: Basic FTP question
Bob - If the userid is logged on you can't get write access to the 191 disk. With WS-FTP I specifyuserid.RDR as the remote directory. The file will end up in your RDR in NETDATA format. Note that the FTPSERVE machine must have enough workspace to hold your whole file during the FTP. It then does a SENDFILE to the specified user. What I did was define a 64M virtual disk to FTPSERVE to use as a work area.

Re: HyperPAV use with full pack MDISK allocation
Thank you all for the input. After trying and failing to make the MINIOP T user directory statement work, the ticket with IBM took a positive turn, and have what I think is a good answer. They pointed me to CP Planning Manual section "Using HyperPAV Minidisks" which indicates for MDISK allocations (the way we are allocating space) z/VM will automatically use PAV if present. This means there is no need, as discussed in the SC33- 8414-00 manual, to try and cause the z/Linux guest to use PAV with COMMAN D DEFINE HYPERPAVALIAS, DASDOPT, or MINIOPT statements in the user director y.

Re: Basic FTP question
For the 191 accessed read only problem in Filezilla, use Filezilla "Site Manager" in the "File" pull down. Define your VM as a site, go the "Transfer Settings" tab and limit the number of simultaneous connections to 1. -Original Message- From: The IBM z/VM Operating System [mailto:ib...@listserv.uark.edu] On Behalf Of Bob Henry Sent: Friday, October 02, 2009 8:48 AM To: IBMVM@LISTSERV.UARK.EDU Subject: Basic FTP question I'm trying to set up an ftp session from my PC to z/VM V5.1.

Oh, and if your FTP client has provision to issue arbitrary commands immediately after login, you can issue "site listformat unix". LISTFORMAT is also settable as the default on a per-user basis by using the CHKIPADR exit. Alan Altmark z/VM Development IBM Endicott

If an FTP client doesn't understand z/VM, then you need to tell the VM FTP server to send the filelist in UNIX-style format. This is done with LISTFORMAT UNIX in SRVRFTP CONFIG. > I finally found an ftp product that works > > (CoreFTP) but the CMS 191 disk is accessed as read only so I can't transf > er > any data to it.

If you can't get it in write mode, then someone else has the disk linked R/W. (Are you logged on to the user ID while you're trying to FTP to it?) Alan Altmark z/VM Development IBM Endicott

That's incredibly ancient (1998 - and note the VM/ESA logo). If you are CD-ing to one of your own disks, you don't need a pw. You will get the disk R/W unless someone else has it linked R/W. For other people's disks, you still have to use ACCT. (Another reason ESMs are handy to have. No more stinkin' mdisk pws.) That website is also out-of-date w.r.t. SENDFILE.

Yes - issue an ACCT x command - where x is the WRITE password for the mini-disk.

Re: Basic FTP question
This will be true using MINIDISKs...if the user that owns the disk has the disk LINKed in R/W, you (FTPSERVE) will only be able to access the disk in R/O.
