Dear, i don't have tape operation manager. Is there any way to verify TAPE LABEL during DDR Backup to prevent operator not inserting worng tape?

Re: DDR Back-up with verifying Tape label
If you mean the volser of the tape, no. DDR uses unlabeled tapes. Or use the version of DDR that works with CMS Pipelines (NOT PIPEDDR) and have the TAPn stage manage the labels. Works nicely. Do I need to do a requirement for IBM to ship the version of DDR that supports this as the default DDR? It'd be real nice if the CMS file support was also added to the standard one... -- db
Re: DDR Back-up with verifying Tape label
We used to run a product called XDR in place of DDR. It used standard labels and had a few other nice features like CMS file level restores. I'm not sure if the company is still around but their web site is still up: http://www.seqsoft.com/ Ray Mrohs
Re: DDR Back-up with verifying Tape label
Hi Dave, Can't speak to CMS file support, but the existing requirement for DDR/PIPES is sufficient for us to complete that work.

Re: VMTAPE Command
There is no VMTAPE command supplied with z/VM. There is a CA product called VM:Tape which provides a VMTAPE command. Perhaps if you describe your circumstances more fully, then we can provide additional information. For example, - did you have a VMTAPE command working on a previous release of z/VM before an upgrade? - perhaps on a different z/VM system altogether, or even at a different employer? - perhaps it was a locally-written command?

Re: VMTAPE Command
Jim Hughes mentioned VTAPE, but if I recall correctly, that provides emulation of tape which the data resides on real disk. If you are considering a VTL solution from a hardware vendor, that is an alternative to the VTAPE product. A VTL (Virtual Tape Library) requires some means to mount a virtual tape within the Virtual Tape Library. I'd be somewhat surprised that a hardware provider has a requirement for a very specific software vendor's tape library product (e.g. CA's VM:Tape, IBM's Tape Manager for z/VM product, etc.). Ask your hardware vendor for more specific information regarding the VMTAPE command they are requesting. No IBM VM system has ever been distributed with a VMTAPE command as part of CMS.

Re: FTP of Nomad database files from VM to VM
I think John's right. Isn't a Nomad2 database RECFM=V? If that's true, won't you lose the record length on each record when it is FTP PUT? COPYFILE (PACK fixes that, preserving the record lengths, but with its obvious overhead at each end, especially for large databases. Just remember when FTPing COPYFILE packed record to first: BIN F 1024 Then when uploading at the target z/VM system, ensure that you upload the file as FIXED 1024, and COPYFILE UNPACK. You might be better off just using a PIPE to send the whole minidisk. Search the IBMVM-L archives for good examples on how to do that.

Re: Design screen under CMS
There are other products, too. XMENU/E from CA is good. Depending on the design of the screen, you may be able to use either XEDIT or CMS Windows for creating dialog and data entry screens. DMS and XMENU will cost; XEDIT and CMS Windows are both included.

Re: How to work with hex in REXX
REXX has hex constants so you could just set up the variable with the correct HEX value. str = ’0001A735’X /* PRK */ I often assign the quote value using this method, saves confusion when embedding quotes into strings. QUOTE = '7D'X /* EBCDIC single quote */ DSN = QUOTE || MYDSN || QUOTE. Lots of nice explanations for the various functions too. But I also like simple solutions.

Re: Design screen under CMS
There is also the Univ. of Victoria' Rexx Display Manager (RDM). It supports not only Rexx but Assembler, PL/I, C, etc. It also has a DMS/CMS mode so you could use it to replace DMS. Very nice. It's available off of the Univ. Of Victoria's VM web site, or if you can not locate that, I have a copy here I could send.

RHEL 5.2 Kick Start
Hi I am having trouble Kick Starting my RHEL 5.2 z/Linux guest. For some reason I cannot get the Kick Start INITRD or IMAGE to load from the my Jump server. I have been using the same INITRD and IMAGE for all of my RHEL 5.2 Kick Starts without any issues up to now. The only difference this time was that I created a new z/VM LPAR and I am building z/Linux guests for the first time on this LPAR. To this end I copied the RHEL 5.2 INITRD and IMAGE files from an existing LPAR (where it has worked fine) to the new z/Linux guests on the new LPAR. I packed the files and used IND$FILE to send them to my desk top and then used IND$FILE to receive them on the new z/Linux guests. I them UNPACKED the files. Now when it reads the PARMFILE to FTP the INITRD and IMAGE files from the Jump server they do not load. I receive the following. I don't know if the COPY messes something up or what? Any help would be appreciated! 15:12:19 INFO: only have one network device: eth0 15:12:19 INFO: dnsservers is 10.15.0.117 15:12:19 INFO: setting specified hostname of E48L002P.CMS.HHS.GOV 15:12:19 INFO: doing kickstart... setting it up 15:12:19 INFO: file location: ftp://10.15.0.107/SPACE/RHEL52/KICKSTART 15:12:19 INFO: transferring ftp://10.15.0.107//SPACE/RHEL52/KICKSTART to a f d 15:12:30 ERROR : failed to retrieve http://10.15.0.107///SPACE/RHEL52/KICKSTART http://10.15.0.107/SPACE/RHEL52/KICKSTART Here is what the PARMFILE and CONF look like: /* Configuration Information For Autoinstall RH52 */ /* Note: Verify HOSTNAME, IPADDR and DASD fields. */ /* */ HOSTNAME=E48L002D.CMS.HHS.GOV DASD=700,800,801 NETTYPE=qeth SUBCHANNELS=0.0.8300,0.0.8301,0.0.8302 PORTNAME= IPADDR=10.15.49.14 NETWORK=10.15.0.0 NETMASK=255.255.0.0 BROADCAST=10.15.0.255 GATEWAY=10.15.0.254 LAYER2=0 MACADDR= SEARCHDNS=cms.hhs.gov DNS=10.15.0.117 MTU=1500 * * * End of File * * * root=/dev/ram0 ro ip=off ramdisk_size=4 CMSDASD=191 CMSCONFFILE=RH52.CONF ks=ftp://lftp:pa55w...@10.15.0.107/SPACE/RHEL52/KICKSTART RUNKS=1 cmdline Here is the RH52 EXEC that I use to start the process: /* common exec */ 'close rdr' 'purge rdr all' 'spool punch * rdr' 'punch rh52 image * (noh' 'punch rh52 parmfile * (noh' 'punch rh52 initrd * (noh' 'change rdr all nokeep nohold' 'ipl 00c clear' Thank You, Terry Martin Lockheed Martin - Citic z/OS and z/VM Performance Tuning and Operating Systems Support Office - 443 348-2102 Cell - 443 632-4191
