Primary Outage
At 12:47 AM PDT on April 21st, a network change was performed as part of our
normal AWS scaling activities in a single Availability Zone in the US East
Region. The configuration change was to upgrade the capacity of the primary
network. During the change, one of the standard steps

As can be seen from the replies, there are different approaches for handling
the PTS. In my shop, when a z/OS release is installed, the PTS is placed on a

are not purged from the PTS - ever. If necessary, spill PTS da

Another tool you might consider is the z390 Portable Mainframe Assembler
which is open source and runs on Windows and Linux. It provides an HLASM
compatible mainframe assembler, linker, and emulator including problem state
support for 64 bit registers, HFP, BFP, DFP, BSAM, QSAM, and VSAM.

Assuming you're vision of this "requirement" is for the application program
using the VTAM API constantly to be resending the text string so that the
impression is given that it floats gently over the presentation space surface,
the protocol on which you need to direct your attention when
I think it is free. This is the -lite version of TKLM that does not
