Re: CSVFETCH exit

Just FYI, there's a pretty blatant doc error of my causing in the z/OS 2.2 data. A doc APAR has been, or soon will be, provided. The doc says that the exit routine gets control with reg 1 pointing to a a 2 word area, the first word being the address of a work area that the exit routine can

Re: Real Storage Allocation

As for monitoring use SMF 71 (RMF Paging Activity) data, most especially MINIMUM as well as AVERAGE Available Frame Count. Study how they both behave with time and how the Minimum deviates from the Average. That's what Dave Betten and I do in every engagement. And Dave probably has some choice

Skip: I concur. A second cousin war story was that there was a RACF "screwup" (ie operator error) took a data center down for a long time (more than a few hours). The DC was designed for the one of the Chicago markets. The lead sysprog at the time (I thing he is no longer with us) was

Re: Old code in JES Exit 6

Just an observation that historically JES2 (and maybe JES3) have meticulously accompanied control block changes with macro label changes. For example, if a field changes from halfword to fullword, then the name is changed as well. The resulting user mod/exit assembly error is a huge red flag

Re: [Bulk] UADS (was Re: [Bulk] Re: COBOL v5)

This opinion is based on (thankfully) limited experience. If you are forced to IPL without a usable RACF data base, you are totally scr*wed. During IPL, operator will be prompted to allow even READ access to *every* data set opened by *every* task except for a tiny handful like JES that bypass
