INSTPIPE z/VM 61 Upload
Is it permissible to simply FTP from a desktop with mput CKD* the CPDVD contents to the IIS machine instead of driving FTP from the IIS machine with the INSTPIPE module and the CMS pipe command? Is pipe doing anything else under covers when it loads the minidisk?
Re: DEDICATED DASD - How to backup?
The guests that the 2nd-level system is running are CMS users and applications. It seems logical to me that if a weekly backup was scheduled when the users are not online and working, the system could be quiesced and backups could be taken. This is what they did when the system was moved to our z10. They logged off all non-system users and did DDR backups. When we restored to our system, it came up without issue. -Original Message- From: The IBM z/VM Operating System [mailto:ib...@listserv.uark.edu] On Behalf Of Alan Altmark Sent: Monday, September 20, 2010 8:18 PM To: IBMVM@LISTSERV.UARK.EDU Subject: Re: DEDICATED DASD - How to backup?

Re: INSTPIPE z/VM 61 Upload
Hi, George. Yes, the pipe is doing more than simply ftp-ing the files off of the DVD. The files are in a compressed format (tersed?) and the pipe also uncompresses them before laying down the 3390 DASD image. Have a good one.

VM64814 information
I understand that VM64814 adds XRC timestamp support. The PTF's are available. The z/VM platform update at SHARE mentioned that there would be a SYSTEM CONFIG change to activate it. Where do I find information on that? The recent SSL changes had a nice web page with all the details, and one of the PTF's described the changes. I haven't been able to find any of that for VM64814. The APAR and PTF just say new function. If it weren't for SHARE, and someone who told me what the APAR was for, I'd have no idea what new function I was putting in, or that an additional step was required to activate it. I found a couple of references on the IBM site that said VM64814 and VM64816 would add the function. VM64816 is assigned to a programmer. Does VM64814 do anything without VM64816? Will VM64816 provide the documentation? Dennis O'Brien A slipping sear could let your M203 grenade launcher fire when you least expect it.

Re: Listfile
It had appeared that it was alpha / numeric, but then I would get an odd one at the end. Thanks for confirming that there is not a true sequence.

Re: Listfile
For a nicely ordered (alpha/numeric) list using ONLY the LISTFILE command, first reaccess the disk. The CMS command ACCESS will sort the files while building the in-storage directory. I don't see that documented anywhere, but it's been true since at least VM/370. We had to rely on it back when all we had was line editors and very basic EXEC-classic.

Re: force pending
What we have done in the past is create a duplicate UserID of the one in a pending state changing the UserID slightly for example from VSEPROD to VSPRD1, everything else the same and attempt to log VSEPRD1 on. Some REXX EXECs may have to temporarily change that are looking for VSEPROD. This at least saves an IPL for the time being.

When I was still blessed with having Tom Huegel on staff he installed something called TRACK that allows us to see the current status of a guest. Might be something for you to look into in the future. I find it especially useful for a VSE or other non-CMS guest in a wait state or a logoff/force pending status, as you can identify the CCUUU of the device with the outstanding I/O. -Original Message- From: The IBM z/VM Operating System [mailto:ib...@listserv.uark.edu] On Behalf Of August Carideo Sent: Tuesday, September 21, 2010 12:42 PM To: IBMVM@LISTSERV.UARK.EDU Subject: force pending 'HCPLGA361IE LOGOFF/FORCE PENDING FOR USER MISDEV02'.

Re: TCP2PROD Failure
In this TCP/IP service you have to have the SFS up and running
Even in a bare bone zvm 5.4.0 system you need to xautolog VMSERVS,

then restart PUT2PROD

Currently, each HyperPAV alias must be defined with a separate command, e.g. COMMAND DEFINE HYPERPAV 1380 BASE 1300 COMMAND DEFINE HYPERPAV 1381 BASE 1300 . . COMMAND DEFINE HYPERPAV 139F BASE 1300 I know I can squeeze in a few more statements by using the minimum abbreviations, e.g. CMD DEF HYPERPAV 1380 BASE 1300, but that doesn't really solve the problem.

Re: VM64814 information
Hi Dennis, There is a memo-to-users file included with VM64814 that describes the new FEATUREs statements that are included as part of XRC timestamping support. I believe that these statements are the additional step that you are referring to. You can certainly pick up VM64814 today and use XRC timestamping. VM64816 will bring along a few internal changes, but nothing that would prevent you from using XRC timestamping today. Thanks, Matt Matthew J.

The PTF's are available. The z/VM platform update at SHARE mentioned that there would be a SYSTEM CONFIG change to activate it. Where do I find information on that? The recent SSL changes had a nice web page with all the details, and one of the PTF's described the changes. I haven't been able to find any of that for VM64814. The APAR and PTF just say new function. If it weren't for SHARE, and someone who told me what the APAR was for, I'd have no idea what new function I was putting in, or that an additional step was required to activate it. I found a couple of references on the IBM site that said VM64814 and VM64816 would add the function. VM64816 is assigned to a programmer. Does VM64814 do anything without VM64816?

Re: Virtualizing a z10
It's certainly hard to believe that IBM built the hardware and software for a z10 *without* fist emulating both in a virtual environment! After all, that's what gave VM a renewed life when they tried to kill it... MVS had to have it to test new releases. But, of course, perhaps the necessary configuration wasn't 'ready for prime time' :-) Les O'Brien, Dennis L wrote: IBM will sell you a virtual z10.

Re: Virtualizing a z10
z10's were available quite awhile before z/VM 6.1.0 was. I'd find it hard to believe that the z/VM lab didn't have a real z10 to test 6.1.0 on.

Hello Les, I suspect that maybe the did just that. Then zapped around the piece they wanted. Seems that Paul Kelly zapped the supervisor to get around something like that back in the 80's.

Re: Virtualizing a z10
It would appear from Googling wait state 9030 and z/vm 6.1, that bit 44, the PFPO bit, of the PSW just needs to be flipped to make z9 impervious to z/VM 6.1.

Re: VM64814 information
Dennis, You should be able to find the text in the prodid MEMO file (for example, 5VMCPR40 MEMO). If you ordered electronically, the MEMO should be located in the SHIPDOCS file. In case others have the same question, here's the contents of the memo as they relate to VM64814: Memo to Users for APAR VM64814 The following configuration file operands have been added by this APAR: FEATURES ENABLE STP_Timestamping tells CP to enable the STP protocol (if the STP facility is installed) and apply timestamps to all XRC-capable DASD devices. FEATURES ENABLE STP_TIMEZone FEATURES ENABLE STP_TZ tells CP to enable the STP protocol (if the STP facility is installed) and obtain timezone information automatically from the STP server. FEATURES ENABLE XRC_OPTional when STP_Timestamping is also enabled, this will allow non- timestamped I/O to be issued whenever STP is in an unsynchronized state, as opposed to deferring I/O until STP synchronization com- pletes. FEATURES ENABLE XRC_TEST tells CP to timestamp I/O regardless of STP availability. This option is meant only for vendor and testing purposes, and can only be specified for systems running within a virtual machine. The following commands have been added by this APAR: QUERY STP returns information regarding the current state of STP usage on the system. The following commands have been modified by this APAR: DEFINE TIMEZONE this command cannot be issued while STP_TIMEZone is in effect. SET TIMEZONE this command cannot be issued while STP_TIMEZone is in effect. QUERY TIMEZONE this command was updated to include STP timezone boundary information when STP_TIMEZone is in effect. The following messages have been added: HCP985E HCP986I HCP987E HCP988I The following publications have been modified: CP Messages and Codes (GC24-6119-07 and GC24-6177-01) New entries were added for the messages referenced above. CP Planning and Administration (SC24-6083-07 and SC24-6178-01) New entries were added for the FEATURES statements described above. CP Commands and Utilities Reference (SC24-6081-07 and SC24-6175-01) A new entry was added for QUERY STP. Entries for SET TIMEZONE, DEFINE TIMEZONE and QUERY TIMEZONE were updated. System Operation (SC24-6121-03 and SC24-6233-01) Added the following paragraph to Chapter 3 'Bringing up the System' under the heading 'Setting the Time of Day Clock': If your hardware is enabled and configured for Server Time Protocol (STP) and this feature has been enabled in your configuration file (using the STP_TIMESTAMPING or STP_TZ features statements), you will not receive any prompts to change the TOD clock. Instead, STP is automatically used to initialize the TOD clock with the STP-coordinated TOD value. When the TOD clock is initialized, you will receive message HCP986I TOD Clock Synchronized via STP.

I believe that these statements are the additional step that you are referring to. You can certainly pick up VM64814 today and use XRC timestamping. VM64816 will bring along a few internal changes, but nothing that would prevent you from using XRC timestamping today. Thanks, Matt Matthew J. Rosato z/VM I/O Development From: O'Brien, Dennis L
