When you changed the instruction similar to

Consider MXG runs very well on SAS on a powerful Windows workstation.
You don't have to license SAS on the mainframe to use MXG.
It sounds like you want some kind of key performance data base and SAS
on a PC would give you that.

Thanks Matthew and Larry, Repro Mergecat worked great.

As far as I know, all currently available z/OS releases (that include LE)
support object code created by all IBM PL/I compilers. For some
information, check out:

for those compilers that REQUIRE an LE run-time.

Are you sure? I once wrote a very small program:
It was introduced in OS/390 1.3. Performance was not optimal.

I think you're correct; it's a matter of style. Probably the programmer is
abiding by some sort of house rule that says if you can't rely upon the
referenced variables to provide the correct length then use the length
attribute in order to show the relationship between the length of the

I did indeed find the version identifier where you said it would be in
DFSRRC00. Problem solved. Thank you, particularly Mark!
Still, let me wonder why a built-in function doesn't do this instead,
something like DB2's CONNECT, PL/I's SYSVERSION or LE's CEEGPID (or some
standardized equivalent)?
Hi all,
Our shop want to find a gobal solution to manage the mainframe and open
platform disk management. for example capacity planning, disk usage,
monitoring, management/SAN...
any shop have experience to share or reommend...
many thanks

I donnot understand the parameter MODE in GTF after I read the parameter
explaination. Could u make me more clearly and give me recommendation how to
use it? How much size and where for trace table in vitual storage for MODE=INT
& MODE=DEFER, as you know GTF region just vary from 832k to 2880.

Same thing. See for example the description if IEF14
Hi,
I am going to migrate from Z/OS V1.4 to V1.7, we have two independent systems
TEST and PROD, each system has its own datasets and volumes, but we keep the
same VOLSER names for both right now as example we use for CAT volume two
different VOLSER using the same nane ZOSCAT.
