Although is a little hassle to setup if you dont have it already, there is
the SMS storage class exit, which can be found in SYS1.SACBCNTL(IGDACSSC).
I used this a lot in the early days of SMS, specifying ACCT=DEBUG on the
EXEC card of the job/STC/TSO-id of the task in question, to prompt the exit

I would say that there is no expectation for the Data Center or Mainframe to
slide into the sunset. The processes on the Mainframe are more robust than
the open systems. Yes, open systems will catch up, but they are now where
we were 15 years ago.
And there are many processes that just perform b
Are there any real world SaaS offerings on z/OS? The only tangible cloud
solution I've seen is the CICS PaaS applications/bundles and they don't
appear to have much appeal.
As far as cloud (private) is concerned it seems z/VM and z/Linux are the
only in town. OpenStack has been ported to z and t

Lizette,
You are assuming the following :
a) You are talking and responding to an educated question/crowd
b) That the mainframe can compete price wise with what DROPBOX's/Google

No, I have no business case. I was speaking philosophically. It is the same
advice I would give an associate who was thinking of developing an operating
system. It's not an excuse for anything. I make extensive use of PDSE where I
find them appropriate.
And it's just my opinion. You can debate
Abs, methinks you got up on the wrong side of the bed this morning. I'm not
trying to sell you anything. I was answering the question, asked here, "are

FWIW, no, Cloud Compiling Inc. has no connection to China and has large z/OS

Mr. Ewing is correct. A full ISO 8601 date-and-time stamp takes the form
-MM-DDThh:mm:ssTZD
An example would be
2013-09-14T11:46:13:05:00
in which '-', 'T', and ':' are prescribed.
My earlier post omitted these details in the interests of brevity.
Googling "ISO 8601" will yield more of t

and this example is a little unfortunate. I wish it were not the
case, but ISAM and BDAM remain in significant, not at all marginal use
in a number of very large z/OS shops.
For now at least

Hi,
I have set up these sorts of environments for several universities and in all
