I would think that searching on CBTTAPE.ORG for things like PARM or PARMLIB or CHECK or CHECKER Might be beneficial. Lizette > -Original Message- > From: IBM Mainframe Discussion List [mailto:IBM-MAIN@LISTSERV.UA.EDU] On > Behalf Of Nathan Astle > Sent: Sunday, September 27, 2015 9:16

Re: Parmlib syntax check macro

Hi In some of the older threads somebody mentioned that there is a Lionel Dycks Macro which does this Check. Not sure which macro it is ? On Sunday 27 September 2015, Lizette Koehler wrote: > Each parmlib member has different syntax rules - That is why there is > probably not a general parm

Re: Parmlib syntax check macro

Each parmlib member has different syntax rules - That is why there is probably not a general parm checker. I have not looked a z/OSMF to see if it helps with these members. The best I do is use the HILITE function in ISPF to see if there is anything obvious, like missing commands or parenthes

Yes, it is BS. But posting about it on this list is what we in the US call "preaching to the choir." What do we DO about it? Did you read my OP below? Charles -Original Message- From: IBM Mainframe Discussion List [mailto:IBM-MAIN@LISTSERV.UA.EDU] On Behalf Of Vince Coen Sent: Sunday, Se

Re: More "ageing mainframe" (bad) press.

I think the stats on migration failures show that many fail regardless of the target migration mainly is that they over estimate project time, and quality of the target systems being used in place of m/f. Taking a straight view the mainframe is slow compared to running on servers on a instruct

Re: Setting the writers right

Well that is what we call in the UK a load of BS. Cobol or for that matter any programming language used for applications has no bearing on the security of any system or systems. Much more is the security procedures in place of any system that is exposed to the internet directly or in-directl
