You can IPL the software and make changes to datasets in and ISPF-Like

Hello Listers
I have reviewed many z/OS 1.8 responses in the archives,..even saved
most of them off for reference. Is anyone willing to share their 'after
the fact' experiences of this 'unsupported' migration path, either on
List or Off List ??
(Note: Many reasons for the delayed/canceled
Mark,
We are in the midst of a migration using FATSCOPY. The product seems
to be accomplishing the migration with few problems. Some issues to
watch out for are VTS Tapes created by sub-systems that record the
volser somewhere inside the subsystem. The data may be migrated to
another volume
You can execute one of your programs with the PARM option to get the
BATCH LE settings.

What is the difference between service levels (PUTyymm or RSUyymm)?
The way I understand, PUT level is when the PTF was made available.
Once the PTF is available it is run through IBM's quarterly QA test,
what IBM calls Consolidated Service Test. Their QA system is a 'Customer
Like' system

Daniel,
We attempted the zVM with multiple instances of Linux running under
it.
As a technician, I thought it was a great concept. However, we ran into
more non-technical issues that eventually killed the project.

..really interested in this thread,.. We have some sysprogs that
maintain their systems that share a disk volume across separate,
nonsysplexed Lpars. Datasets accessed/updated from different systems,..
no GRS protection.
So I am curious if this is a situation that could clobber a vtoc.

Any reason to upgrade our 2074-1 to a 2074-2 or 2074-3, other than

It appears the mod-1 is still supported, and our current console

Excellent considerations...
We are locked into our z900 2064 for at least two more years, so maybe
keeping the current config/hardware is the choice. Capacity on our
2074-1 is adequate.

When the output is broken out into individual archived files,
sometimes it is because each is in a different output class.

Hal,
The path of the data was 1) ADRDSSU Physical Dump to a sequential file
on disk 1) Download to Windows/2000, then FTP to an our FTP site. From
there the DR Team could download to the DR site and upload to a
sequential file on z/OS, and then run the ADRDSSU Restore process.
