Re: vmcpi command

2008-06-04 Thread Doug Carroll
FYI

I don't see anywhere in the Redhat Init processing that it reads
/etc/modules.conf or any variant of it
/etc/rc,local is read
and
/etc/rc.modules is read
both by /etc/rc.d/rc.sysinit


Redhat recommends in the doc to add
modprobe  to /etc/rc.modules   (note you must create it first and
set permissions correctly to use it,  it's not there by default)

adding to /etc/rc.modules does load it much earlier in init processing than
/etc/rc.local does,  which is the very last thing done

so if you need it ealier then rc.modules is a better place

I thought I saw a question about how to get this or use it so here
We do use this
install  s390utils to get the vmcp command
either
yum isntall s390utils or rpm -Uvh --aid s390utils-1.3.2-2.40.12.s390x
then add
modprobe vmcp to /etc/rc.modules

then just do a vmcp q n to test

You *should* also be able to put a line in /etc/modules.conf.local or
/etc/modules.conf like this:

alias block-major-10 vmcp

Then -- it should automatically load vmcp if needed.

Unfortunately, the vmcp module isn't unloadable, so I can't test this
right now. (Mind, unloading modules can be a bad idea anyway ...)

REXECD with ACF/2

2008-06-04 Thread Doug Carroll
Has anyone setup and gotten REXECD to run successfully with ACF2?

I have the following in my DTCPARMS
:ESM_Enabled. YES
:ESM_Validate.ACFSAFA0
:ESM.Racroute.RPIDUMY


The only error I get is in REXECD itself and all it says is
Incorrect User ID or Password.

Have tried all kinds of ID's/Password and all give the same response
There's nothing in ACF2 logs,  It appears as though it's not even getting
as
far as actually sending the request to ACF2

The above parms are the ones that work for FTPSERVE.


If I enable Anonymous access,  that works as expect and I get replies to
commands It's only when using an Real User ID that if fails


Sooo any one out there got this working on ACF2 and can provide some
assistance?

I have a ticket open with ACF2,  but they haven't had any tickets they said
open for ACF2 since before 2000.
So hoping I'll find a magic bullet here quicker

Thanks

Re: Capturing PERFKIT console messages

2008-06-04 Thread Thomas Kern

I intercept LOGON messages and save them to a separate file. I am
including the entry in the FCONX $PROFILE that will send the LOGON
message to my VALLGN exec, and the VALLGN EXEC. Inside such an exec you
could massage the data, validate the data, add other data, build a
message and then send out an email. The MAILIT package from the IBM
Downloads website is excellent for sending out the email.

Any suggestions from other shops how they (you) monitor and capture this

There is nothing in VM TCP/IP to limit traffic, but check the TCPIP
console and see if it is complaining about anything.

You need to get your network techs on it to see where the packets are
going missing.  They have the tools and knowledge to do that.

Re: tracerte lost packets

2008-06-04 Thread Bruce Furber
I am trying to debug an intermitant problem with VM REXEC  commands failing. It 
appears to be lost packets which lead me to using tracerte which fails more 
frequently.

Is their any sort of TCP/IP Session rate limiting / Denial Of Service attack 
code in Linux that would produce this kind of failure?
