Hi,

I just got the same problem today. Never had before...
I am in zVM530 rsu 1001 and I would like to know if a ptf was brought in

Re: Trying to build CMSBAM segment

2007-11-25 Thread David Boyes

We use PP 5648-A25 IBM COBOL for OS/390  VM  2.2.0, and 5668-910 IBM
OS PL/I OPTIMIZING COMPILER V2.R3.M0 -- but no VSAM. 



Yah, probably should have been a bit clearer. AFAIK, CMS VSAM was the
only method of doing direct access or similar things with anything but C
or Fortran (both C and Fortran used the native CMS facilities for that).
Sequential stuff _usually_ worked w/the default segments shipped with
VM, mostly because the compilers used OS simulation, not DOS, which
doesn't use those segments.

Alan,

SEGMENT RESERVE/RELEASE didn't help.  A few more details.  I defined
vstor at 256m.  We installed to mdisk, not SFS.  I have backups of the
old SDF files and can restore if  necessary.  We are running 5.1 and are
trying to get to 5.3 since 5.1 is unsupported.  I'll open a PMR with
that information and provide the console listings.


Thanks,
Larry

bumping

   Is this a known problem and does everyone have it?
   I am on z/VM 5.3 for about two weeks.  Ran all the RSU and PTFS
 before testing.

AFAIK, it really only affects people who need DOS/VS emulation or who
still care about CMS VSAM. Ordinary CMS and Linux use of VM really
doesn't invoke any of these segments in normal life. 

Of course, if you still use any compilers other than C/C++ or VS Fortran

Re: Trying to build CMSBAM segment

We use PP 5648-A25 IBM COBOL for OS/390  VM  2.2.0, and 5668-910 IBM 
OS PL/I OPTIMIZING COMPILER V2.R3.M0 -- but no VSAM.

After first copying SEGBLIST EXC0 as a backup to SEGBLIST -EXC 
(Never change anything IBM sends you without leaving a trail of bread 
crumbs), I've been manually deleting CMSBAM and CMSDOS from SEGBLIST 
EXC0 for ages.  And then just manually purging their appropriate 
NSSes.  I also mark them DELETED in SEGBLIST SEGDATA -- there's a 
VMFsomethingorother command to do that, but the upshot is:
...
:OBJNAME.CMSBAM :DEFPARMS.DELETED 

:OBJNAME.CMSDOS :DEFPARMS.DELETED 
...
:OBJNAME.DOSINST :DEFPARMS.DELETED
...

Again, no CMS VSAM other uses, and nothing has been complaining and they 
never need to be re-built after service because they are not in the 
SEGBLIST EXC0 (he says without thoroughly looking through what he has 
done for a long time).  :-)

welcome to the can't build CMSBAM club, been happening for at least 2 years,

Quick,  easy workaround is based on knowledge  CMSBAM hasn't changed and

on Vm5.3 MAINT 51D edit VM SRVBLDS, locate line that begins like
:BLDLIST.SEGBLIST :OBJECT.CMSBAM.SEGMENT :STAT.

and edit it to look like :STAT,BUILT.yy/mm/dd.hh:mm:ss.blurb
:BLDLIST.SEGBLIST :OBJECT.CMSBAM.SEGMENT :STAT.BUILT.03/30/06.11:42:47.JOHNR

If you used SERVICE command then on MAINT 191 there's a recent SERVICE RESTART? 
or something file with 1 or more records.
If only 1 record that refers to CMSBAM then delete the file, else delete that 
line.

Re: Trying to build CMSBAM segment

2007-11-20 Thread Hodge, Robert L
Larry,
I've had this problem for several releases of z/VM. My solution was to
use the DIRATTR command to make the directories in the VMSYS:MAINT.
filespace dircontrol, including the base direct directory. The MAINT
userid must be MACHINE XC in the VM directory to use dircontrol
directories. My understanding is that the FST for files in a dircontrol
directory reside in a dataspace and not the user virtual storage. For
me, this sufficiently rearranged the usage of MAINT's virtual storage,
such that the problem no longer occurs. The SFS server must have XCONFIG
statements to use dataspaces, which it does on a default install.

Larry, please open a PMR so that we can look at your problem in more 
detail.  This usually shows up when you've installed into SFS - the memory 
occupied by file descriptors (FSTs) in the accessed directories is bumping 
into the memory used by CMSBAM.

A possible workaround:  Immediately after IPL CMS and ACC (NOPROF, try 
SEGMENT RESERVE CMSBAM.  Then, right before you issue the VMFBLD for the 
segment, issue SEGMENT RELEASE CMSBAM.  And add the NOSETUP option to 
VMFBLD.  E.g.

segment release cmsbam
Ready;
vmfbld list segbld esasegs dosbam blddata (all nosetup

No guarantees, but worth a try.

Re: Trying to build CMSBAM segment

2007-11-20 Thread Dale R. Smith
The problem with saving the DOS/BAM segments is because of two things:
(1) The DOS/BAM segments are still below the 16M line.
(2) The directory, (FSTs), for every accessed CMS disk or SFS directory 

are also still below the 16M line.

VMFBLD accesses a lot of disks/directories so when it went to save the BA
M 
segment, the storage was in use.  It released the disks before exiting so
 
that's why the storage appeared to no longer be in use, (your CP DISPLAY 

command).  I never used VMSES to manage my shared segments, I had my one 

procedure that I developed before VMSES had code to manage/mangle 
segments.  :-)

I think the following steps will work, (but I don't have a system to test
 
it with):
ipl 190 clear parm nosprof
access (noprof
segment reserve cmsbam/* Do this before anything else! */ 
access 5e5 b
access 51d d
vmfppf segbld esasegs
vmfbld ppf segbld esasegs (status
vmfsetup zvm cms/* This may not be necessary, but shouldn't hurt 
*/
segment release cmsbam/* has to be done before saving segs */
vmfbld list segbld esasegs dosbam blddata (all nosetup

Hopefully, this will work, if not, I'll let know how I did it without 
VMSES, that always worked!  :-)  The NOSETUP option on the last VMFBLD i
s 
required to prevent VMSES from accessing disks, that's why the VMFSETUP 

command may be required.  The SEGMENT RESERVE command will keep CMS from 

using the storage area where the DOS/BAM segments reside.  If the SEGMENT
 
RESERVE command fails, then that means the storage area for the segments 

is already in use.  

Another way around this problem is to have a special CMS nucleus/NSS that
 
IPLs at a lower address, (for example 5-8M).  Back when there were other 

products that used segments below the 16M line, I used this special low
 
CMS to allow me to save segments that were right below where the high 

version of CMS started.  Without a low CMS, I would not have been able 

to save segments in the megabyte immediately below CMS.
