DDR Tape-to-Tape (3590 = 3490)
Afternoon all, yes, we are going backwards.. A customer of ours has received a z/OS 1.12 Serverpac on two 3590 cartridges. Cleverly, he does not possess such drives, only 3490 units. Would it be possible to do a DDR tape-to-tape copy using the above as input and Tonnes of 3490's as output?? The other alternative would be perhaps DITTO in z/OS batch, but I want to try and be clever first... :) TIA and regards, Andre www.lavache.com : l'email gratuit sans pub, vachement meuh. www.hugolescargot.com : coloriage, fiches recettes et bricolage, chansons, etc. www.jeux-gratuits.com : des jeux en ligne pour toute la famille.

You're out of luck with DDR. From DDR's online help: 3. Copying data from one device to another of the same type. Data may be reordered by cylinder or block when copying it from disk to disk. In order for one tape to be copied to another, the original tape must have been created by either the DDR command or the DDRXA stand-alone utility DUMP function. But, using a series of MOVEFILE, or PIPE TAPE ! TAPE TAP2 commands you can copy the tape, but yoy will have to know how many iterations to do. DITTO TT is bit easier in that respect. 2010/11/22 Andre Massena andre_mass...@lavache.com Afternoon all, yes, we are going backwards..

Re: DDR Tape-to-Tape (3590 = 3490)
You could also use the TAPECOPY utility from the VM Workshop tapes. I'm not sure how it'll handle having the output tape be shorter than the input tape, but at least you wouldn't have to count files.

Re: Suppressing messages
AH, OK, I understand. We run a monwrite that gets never stopped. Within MONWRITE we run a custom pipeline, it retrieves data with the STARMON stage and a second stage waits for the cleanup command with STARMSG. The cleanup command forces the monwrite machine to cleanup the disks. Before that we ran the basic MONWRITE and then we stopped the monitor every day. But we also have PERFKIT running so there was always at least one user connected to MONITOR. So that's a way for this, just add a user that connects to the MONITOR and does nothing with the data (PIPE STARMON | HOLE).

Re: Attachment to acquire Novell....
X3270 is crude, granted. But it is consistent, and it is the only 3270 emulator that covers as many platforms. I have offered my $HOME/.x3270pro repeatedly (not here), though it is so old that I really don't remember all that is in it ... or why. This much I remember: F keys are PF keys, Alt-1 is PA1, Alt-2 is PA2, and there are several key combinations for Clear. After that, it gets pretty easy. The toughest part is dealing with the packaging, for which I blame dpkg and RPM. (Don't get me started.) I will happily send a copy off-list. X3270 works on every contemporary platform where X windows works, except maybe USS. (But there is an 'xterm' for USS, so ... who knows?)

Windows is more specific about its requirements for line termination. Generally it must be CR/LF.

Re: Attachment to acquire Novell....
I have a good setup for x3270. I'm always open for something better. No, I don't have the talent to do it myself. Reading RFCs and converting them to something useful is beyond my ability.

Re: DDR Tape-to-Tape (3590 = 3490)
I'm not very z/VM literate. I am a z/OS sysprog who has done a fair number of installs, but not z/OS 1.12 so far. My best guess would be that you could use something like DITTO to copy individual files. But the result is going to be a mess so far as doing the installation is concerned. The reason is that the supplied jobs are tailored to the installation medium. I don't know the level of expertise your z/OS people have. When I installed z/OS 1.10, I used the Internet Download option and put the files on my Linux desktop. I could then NFS mount the Linux desktop filesystem to the driving z/OS 1.8 system. This allowed me to install z/OS 1.10 without needing a lot of UNIX filesystem space on z/OS DASD. Why not just reorder with the proper media requirements? OK, the time may be a factor. That's why I went with the Internet download. -- John McKown Systems Engineer IV IT Administrative Services Group HealthMarkets(r) 9151 Boulevard 26 * N.
