Re: Going from mod-3 to mod9

Hi Joel, We do NOT have any PAV's. We are a pretty small shop. One production LPAR and one test (sandbox for me). The VSAM file in question is open to a single CICS region. Give that additional information, can I expect a negative impact on response time going to the MOD-9's? Dennis

Going from mod-3 to mod9

2012-01-20 Thread Dennis McCarthy
A couple of questions: 1. We just had 3390-9's configured into our EMC box. This box also contains 3390-3's. Given that the hardware is the same throughout and all other things being equal, is there any decrease in response time on the mod-9's? 2. I have a VSAM file (with extended

Decreasing an HFS

Environment: Testing z/OS 1.9 I use FDR to copy my HFS file systems when doing maintenance. I was able to successfully copy them (JV390, JAVA64V5 and JAVA64V6) to a larger size, but now that I see I've over allocated then, I want to copy again to a smaller size. They are currently 25,000
