Re: C++ __asm statement

I think it's a bad design that only Metal C supports GENASM. The z/OS C/C++ compiler is the only C/C++ compiler that doesn't support inline assembler and it's a PITA. On 2/05/2014 9:08 AM, Phil Sidler wrote: Martin, Pretty sure this only works with Metal C. Inline assembly code requires the

Shane, Well that's not true. You can mix your basic volumes with HDP 3390-V volumes in the same array group. We've done this to see how it would be reported by RMF and it works just peachy. I hope he isn't from HDS :-( There's nothing in the microcode that prevents this. You can make every arra

Re: C++ __asm statement

Martin, Pretty sure this only works with Metal C. Inline assembly code requires the GENASM compiler option which is only valid in combination with the METAL option. Otherwise __asm is ignored. Personally, I think that is a bad design, it should not be simply ignored but would at least genera

TSO exits are not designed to be dynamic but you can do things to make it work dynamically. I don't use these exits so I can't say specifically what will work. Here is what I would try. Be sure to consider overhead when implementing your exits. 1. Try placing the  the exit into LPA and use SETP

Ken, I think IBM call them "extent space efficient volumes" and they were announced in the previous DS8700 generation. There are a few hits on IBM web sites that talk about using and implementing ESE on the DS8870, but you would have to check with IBM to see if this is a licensed feature. Ron

Re: SMS: managing overflow (Quiesced) volumes in each Storage Group

Associative memory is remarkable. Lets us store away stuff without having to keep it in the active heap. Likewise the flow has contributed to my knowledge and reinforced the concepts and understanding I've gleaned over the years. The list will be coming up on it's 28th birthday in June.

Re: New install library size

All, Shmuel's reply prompts me to suggest that you consider what lies outside the nine dots. Firstly, would you consider thin provisioning of the installation volumes and SYSRES? This will get you onto 3390-A for these volumes using any size you want. Why is this good? Because DVE is also good

I've been following some of this thread and everyone is asking for options to increase space (at least the posts I've payed attention to). I've sort of done the exact opposite. After I had my order laid down, I used ISPF 3.4 to free space on the largest data sets in order to get my IBM sysres

It's interesting how simply listening in to the conversation here can prompt an idea you wouldn't have otherwise. I need to thank Kees for this one tho' he was pursuing a completely different (forgotten to me now) problem. Like many/most, I have 1-2 quiesced volumes in each SMS Storage Group to

AT-TLS(application transparent transport layer security) is a transport layer protocol. It encrypts data sent over the link. HTTPS is an application level protocol. The date is encrypted prior to being sent over the link. Using HTTPS with AT-TLS is encrypting the data twice. Once by the applic

AT-TLS question

We have the need to encrypt messages sent from z/OS on a particular port to an application running under Webshere on Windows. The outgoing messages are HTTP protocol and they would need to be converted to the HTTPS that Websphere understands. Is that something that can be done with AT-TLS. Jim McA
