Jake: When a CP fails, generally there is a Machine Check interrupt that takes place. The O/S gets this (we will assume z/OS in this case) and determines if it can recover from this. So Machine Check Interrupt gets processed, that generally causes ACR to be triggered (Alternate CPU Recovery).

2018-12-16 Thread Lizette Koehler
So how would you, as a human, determine whether a job should use Proc A or Proc B? The logic in your tool would need to make the same decision. So if the tool is building a job, and it reads the parameters to build the JCL. How would it make a decision? This would not be much different than

Since you asked about zIIP reporting and now zIIP restrictions, perhaps you can share what problem you are trying to resolve? There are options available that might help you, but it is not clear what problem you are trying to solve. So work pushed to a zIIP engine will reduce your costs overall

Re: Enforcing CLASS in instream proc

I am wondering how you can enforce zIIP usage? A zIIP engine, as far as I know, is chosen by z/OS based on interruptible SRB and work type. I do not know of a way to say this CLASS or this JOB will use zIIP. So how are you planning to do the assignment of a zIIP? Lizette > -Original Mess

If I have understood your Q correctly, depending on your Z system 'model', apart from a few older 'BC' systems, all Z Systems have dedicated 'spare' PU/PUs (processing units). If any CP, IFL, ICF, zIIP or SAP fails, 'sparing' action will take place transparently and in your example the 'SPARE' P

That particular instream proc invoke ziip . As the default job card is generated by the application for all the others jobs too, but particularly to a instream proc we want to assign . The reason we want to control is that we want to limit the usage of particular class and have a specific class t

As there is more one way to generate JCL, why would you want to control if a specified PROC is included instream? What is done in this instream procedure that you wish to control? On Sun, 16 Dec 2018 11:51:26 +0400 Peter wrote: :>We have some job which runs with a default class B. :>We would l
