More a question of different ways to achieve the same result. So I guess you're now doing a very cheap scrolling operator console? I can see how you have reached your assumption about what I am doing but 2 + 2 does not always make 5 and I do work on more than 1 thing at a time ;-) In this case it was an existing server, that already trapped msg wng, that I was monitoring. I (inadvertently) left it logged on overnight and, of course, at midnight it hung up when the midnight message came out. As I am now getting quite old and forgetful, I wanted to protect against making the same mistake again ;-) It really did not matter if the midnight message was trapped by IUCV (my original question) or if just avoided putting the terminal in hold but the IUCV trap is the better solution. Surely Kris must have uploaded a tool that will issue SEND CP to you around 23:59 to issue a TERM HOLD OFF for 2 minutes ;-) I am sure I could make it more complicated than that if I think about it hard enough ;-) :rant.

I do not think I feel as strongly about this as you but I do agree that I do not like processes messing with MY settings in MY userid. However, I think this is a completely different thing to a defined server/userid with a defined process setting defined values (CP SET or CP TERM or whatever) in a way that it allows it process to work in the way it is designed. Of course, it should be friendly and restore the settings when leaving the process and returning to the command line (typically after a terminal break-in).

Re: Disabled Wait during z/OS guest machine IPL
This is a CMS problem, not a z/OS problem. Are you IPLing from a 3270 terminal, with XAUTOLOG. It is saying that CMS cannot talk to the terminal. When you IPL CMS, do you have the PARM AUTOCR on it so that CMS does not prompt for input? Just a couple of ideas.

3494 Tape Library System Question
We are currently looking into getting a 3494 Tape Libray System and would like to be able to share it between z/OS and z/VM. Currently running CA-1 on z/OS and DYNAM/T VM with separate tape catalogs kept in sync with cross-system communications sharing 3490E 3590 tape pools. Can we share common tape ranges in the 3494 TLS between these 2 systems ? If so how would this be accomplished? Thanks in advance, Jim P.

Re: 回复： Disabled Wait during z/OS guest m ac hine IPL
I'm not a real heavy in CMS or z/VM anymore, but the CP TERM CON 3270 concerns me. When CMS is IPL'ed, the console is in 3215 emulation mode. After the TERM CON 3270, the console is in 3270 mode. And I don't think CMS likes you to change the terminal mode on the fly. quote Some programs reset the console mode internally. For instance, CMS requires a console mode of 3215 and sets CONMODE to 3215 when it is IPLed. You may not be aware that the console mode has been changed for you automatically. Problems result if you then start a program that requires the alternate console mode setting. Therefore, you should remain aware of the significance of the console mode any time that you start a program in your virtual machine. quote from: http://publibz.boulder.ibm.com/cgi-bin/bookmgr_OS390/BOOKS/hcse4b31/2.570 John McKown Systems Engineer IV IT Administrative Services Group HealthMarkets(r) 9151 Boulevard 26 * N.

Thank you, Keri Borrego IBM z/VM Support
Re: 回复： Disabled Wait during z/OS gu est mac hine IPL
I think that you will find it easier to use a 2nd terminal to dial into
the guest. I have SPECIAL statements in the guest directory entry at
the addresses of the MVS master console and a few TSO 3270 addresses:
SPECIAL 1E00 3270
SPECIAL 1E20 3270
I also use DEDICATE statements to let the guest have the volumes it needs:
DEDICATE 0150 0150
DEDICATE 0151 0151
DEDICATE 0338 0338
DEDICATE 0339 0339
This is from the PROFILE EXEC I use:
do until (abbrev('YES',yn,1) | abbrev('NO',yn,1))
'TELL * IPL 2nd level PROD MVS?'
'TELL * If you enter NO, you can still ipl by entering:'
'TELL * IPL cuu CLEAR STOP LOADPARM '
if rc ^= 0 then do
yn = 'YES'
iterate
end
pull yn
end
if abbrev('YES',yn,1)
then do
SAY 'When you see IPL STOP'
SAY 'enter DIAL MVS xxx on another terminal'
SAY 'where xxx is the master console address'
SAY '...and come back to this screen and enter B'
'CP IPL 0151 CLEAR STOP LOADPARM 015143M1'
end
else exit

Re: 3494 Tape Library System Question
This should not be a problem. Of course there are some setup/configuration issues you need to perform to implement the 3494 TLS in Dynam/T VM (I suspect for CA-1 on z/OS too). There are also some caveats, for example the OWNERID in the DSN definition indicates what RMS Scratch Category is to be used for the mount request.

Dang Printer
Ok, I understand this is old and everyone wants to know why. Try to forget that and recall how you defined that IBM 6262 printer 20 years ago. Here's my situation: CHPID PATH=(CSS(0),EA),PARTITION=((P1),(=),REC),PCHID=1EA,* TYPE=CVC CNTLUNIT CUNUMBR=EA00,PATH=((CSS(0),EA)),UNITADD=((00,001)), * SHARED=N,PROTOCL=D,UNIT=4248 IODEVICE ADDRESS=EA0,UNITADD=00,CUNUMBR=(EA00),TIMEOUT=Y, * STADET=Y,UNIT=4248 I've tried SET RDEV to 3211 and to impact_printer with no joy. I saw an old post from John Fransicovich that says you have to have an image library for an ibm 6262 model 22, tried IMAG4248, still no joy. The printer won't come online. Depending on the RDEV, I either get unable to identify device 0ea0 dynamically or a simple no channel paths is available. If anyone has such a config, can you look over my iocp definition and let me know what your set rdevice is? Thanks!! Mary Anne

SIGNALLING z/Linux Guest to shutdown
Hi I wrote a REXX EXEC to shutdown my z/Linux guests based on some answers to some prompts. I wrote in the exec to give me the flexibility to specify one guest at a time to shutdown or ALL guests. The issue I am having is when I execute the exec on the console for a guest and while it is running I happen to hit the enter key the exec is interrupted and the guest is logged off without completing the shutdown scripts within the Linux guest itself. For systems like Oracle if this is interrupted and the shutdown scripts do not complete this can cause some not so pretty things to go wrong with the Oracle disks. Also if I want to bring them all down at the same time when one completed and I get into a VM READ if I hit enter that disrupts them all. I have a copy of the exec but did not want to paste because of its length and cannot attach here so if have some thoughts and need to look at the exec let me know where I can email and attach the exec. Any help would be appreciated Thanks Thank You, Terry Martin Lockheed Martin - Information Technology z/OS z/VM Systems - Performance and Tuning Cell - 443 632-4191 Work - 410 786-0386 terry.mar...@cms.hhs.gov WFH on Tuesdays and Fridays

Re: SALIPL - Stand Alone Program Loader
When the menu is produced on the designated console (which is what the loadparm does), you can change the name of the module to load, the name of the CONFIG file, the location of the parm disk, and the OPERATOR console address. The changes are not permanent, reverting to their old values for the next IPL. One quirk - if you do specify cons=addr via the menu, it replaces both the OPERATOR and emergency console lists with that single address for the duration of that IPL.

Re: 回复： 回复： Disabled Wait during z/OS guest mac hi ne IPL
We have a similar situation with our TPF guests. I issue all CP commands that will cause a system reset or give CMS grief using DIAG 8 with a command string that looks something like this SYSTEM RESET#TERM CONMODE 3270#DEFINE STOR nnG#IVPOPEN parms#MSG * SETUP COMPLETE. The SYSTEM RESET is always the first command to be executed. It prevents the DMSCIT message and the problem tickets that the users open when they see them. The SETUP COMPLETE message has a tendency to prevent the users from jumping the gun by IPLing their systems before all of the changes have been made. I found that training the users to ignore the DMSCIT message was a futile exercise. The same users kept reporting the problem over and over again.

If they're VM guests, use VSWITCHes. Only use hipersockets if you have to cross LPARs. Hipersockets are a giant PITA to define and maintain. On 10/29/09 4:31 PM, Frank M.

Re: SALIPL - Stand Alone Program Loader
On Thursday, 10/29/2009 at 04:08 EDT, Schuh, Richard rsc...@visa.com wrote: When the menu is produced on the designated console (which is what the loadparm does), you can change the name of the module to load, the name of the CONFIG file, the location of the parm disk, and the OPERATOR console address. The changes are not permanent, reverting to their old values for the next IPL. The request was for a method that does not require the SAPL screen. Kris was right, there is no such method. Only the filename of SYSTEM CONFIG can be specified on the LOADPARM without bringing up the SAPL screen. E.g. LOADPARM FNABC will cause FN=ABC to be added to the SAPL parms, overriding any burned-in specification. One quirk - if you do specify cons=addr via the menu, it replaces both the OPERATOR and emergency console lists with that single address for the duration of that IPL. That's correct for OPERATOR_CONSOLES, but if it's happening for the emergency console list, it's a bug. Here's what the book says: If the CONS=addr or CON=addr parameter was specified on the Stand-Alone Program Loader (SAPL) panel to specify a console address and this console address is not already specified on the EMERGENCY_MESSAGE_CONSOLES statement, it is added to the list of emergency message consoles. When you specify a console on the LOADPARM, SAPL creates a CONS=addr entry and the above rule applies. Alan Altmark z/VM Development IBM Endicott

If you do (or plan to do) IPv6, then you're going to want the layer 2 stuff.

I recall a day when you would call IBM Software Support at 1-800-237-5511 (burned into my memory from over 20 years of calling), immediately connect to KNOWLEDGABLE professionals who could quickly help you identify if your problem was known/existing or open a new problem report, and this was all done in clear, easily understood English! Now we have IBMLink 2000, ServiceLink, Passport/Advantage, ShopzSeries, etc. etc. etc. etc. Each of which seems to require its own userid/password combination, and none of which is simple or easy to use! I have spent the past TWO HOURS trying to open a software support ticket using IBM.com, and am now going to GIVE UP and use the phone the old fashioned way. I sign in to IBMLINK 2000 using my userid and password. I searched for any records associated with my existing problem (TCPIP abending, FWIW) - no recent hits. I tried to open a Service Request. That takes you to a screen where you have to enter your IBM ID and password, which is not your IBMLINK ID and password. I call the IBMLINK Help Desk at 1-800-543-3912 to figure out WHAT IBM ID it is asking for. They take my name and phone number and tell me someone will call you back. I guess it would be TOO efficient to let me talk to someone immediately! Someone from IBM (IBMLINK Help Desk) calls me back. We walk through the exact same process I went through above until I am asked for my IBM ID again. He looks it up and tells me what it is. I enter THAT id and password only to have the website come back and tell me I'm not authorized to do anything (even though I am the ONLY registered user on this account!). I ask him to fix the account. He tells me I need to call the Software Support Help Desk at 1-800-426-7378, options 2-2. I call the Software Support Help Desk using the options provided. We very quickly discover this is NOT the right number to call for problems with Passport/Advantage. It's the software defect support numbe (e.g. what formerly was on 800-237-5511). The IBM'er gives me that phone number. I call IBM Passport/Advantage Help Desk at 1-800-978-2246. I describe my problem to the IBMer. He tells me IBM Passport/Advantage does not provide Help over the phone and that I must go to www.ibm.com/software/support to get the problem with my Passport/Advantage account authorizations straightened out. I go to www.ibm.com/software/support - this is not a web page to request Passport/Advantage support! It's yet another search page! The only reference to Passport/Advantage on this page is under Buying and managing support, which is basically a page to convince you to buy Passport/Advantage!!! I give up! For crying out loud IBM, can't you have a SINGLE sign-on for a customer to be able to access ALL of the services/entitlements that they've paid for? Why do I need an IBMLINK id/pw, an IBM (presumably Passport/Advantage - although that's NOT what I'm prompted to enter!) id/pw, a ShopzSeries id/pw! And when all of these accounts get out of synch, how about ONE support phone number with ONE knowledgable professional who can RESOLVE the problem FULLY, instead of bouncing customers around from phone number to phone number, ultimately being directed to a web page that doesn't exist!

If you had the V/Spool option of VM:Spool you could even have it freeze users writing to spool once it had reached whatever point you considered critical. -- Mike Harding z/VM System Support mhard...@us.ibm.com mike.b.hard...@kp.org mikehard...@mindless.com (925) 926-3179 (w) (925) 457-9183 (c) IM: VMBearDad (AIM), mbhcpcvt (Y!)

Re: CP Message HCP401I
Since Mike opened the door to mentioning products that can help in this space, let me add IBM Operations Manager for z/VM. It allows you to monitor spool space and set different triggers at different % full ranges. I.e. at 50%-75% full, send a message to OPERATOR, at 75%-85% full, send someone an e-mail, etc. It also allows y ou to trigger something based on growth in % full. I.e. if it grew 20 percentage points in the last 10 minutes (even if it's only at 45% full), do something. Tracy Dean, IBM
VMRMSVM - z/VM Resource Manager
Hi, I am looking at implementing VMRM. I was wondering if you use it and if it is working as advertised? I want to mainly use it for managing the priority of my different workloads running in z/Linux. I am familiar with the goal concept from WLM on the z/OS side so I understand the principle behind it but I just wanted to know from those who use it how it is working. Also any specifics on setting it up in terms of what to watch out for etc Thank You, Terry Martin Lockheed Martin - Information Technology z/OS z/VM Systems - Performance and Tuning Cell - 443 632-4191 Work - 410 786-0386 terry.mar...@cms.hhs.gov WFH on Tuesdays and Fridays
Re: QUICKDSP and DSPBUF
Hi I have two queries and kindly hoping I can get some advise: 1) Is it recommended to define QUICKDSP for high-priority zLinux server in a resource constraint environment? 2) If the DSPBUF values are, DSPBUF : Q1=100 Q2=75 Q3=60, what will be the impact to the system (because the default 32767 is I presumed the recommended one)? Many Thanks. Martin
Re: TDMF to move CP Owned volumes ?
We have used TDMF (4.1) from z/OS to move all of our z/VM volumes, CP Owned, zLinux, and others. We always shutdown the z/VM lpar before we do the moves. Also remember to make any DASD address updates to the system config before you shutdown z/VM.

z/LInux, LVM, and minor disasters.
I had to add some additional DASD to a Linux instance over the weekend, and for whatever reason, it turned into a disaster. Linux somehow or another decided to rearrange all the DASD and blew every single LVM I had on the machine. Just under half a terabyte of data went into some unrecoverable mode. I'm pretty careful about this, and just build ~100GB volumes using 3390-9 volumes. The mini-disk definitions are always ordered and new DASD gets higher, sequential numbering. I always start my minidisk assignments at 200, so 200 is the IPL disk, 201 is either /usr or swap, depending. 202 starts the data volumes. I wound up building a new instance, and installing a slightly updated version of Linux, then restoring all the data with Tivoli from a VTL. There was no permanent damage done, except to my ability to sleep at night. When I rebuilt the data partitions, I built them as RAID-0 partitions. (The Shark takes care of the real RAID, and I am not worried about data loss from that direction.) Has anyone else ran into this? -Paul
