Hi
This is just a general question
If any one of the switch is in error or down. How do we validate or check
from the Mainframe (zOS) that a particular ficon is not working ? Is it
just displaying the ficon device alone will be enough ?
Then how do we check from SAN switch login ?
Any advise wou

When I started, also the terminals we used for online access (TSO, IMS etc.)
were uppercase only.
I don't know why, maybe because dual case were not available, cost more, were
not necessary?

Perhaps you're refering to those 3279 and similar IBM 3270 display terminals?

The 3279-2A and 3279-#A only had 4 colors, but the others had 7. IAC, the 3279
was later than the 3277.

What, no 1050, 2740, 2741 or Teletype?
The 2260 and basic 3277 didn't have dual case, but there was aa dual case
option for the 3277.

I recall, e.g., the 129, printing lower case.

You can't do a GET after a FIND because GET is a QSAM macro (MACRF=G) and FIND
is a BPAM macro (MARF=RP). Deblocking is a facility of QSAM, not of BPAM or
BSAM. You might submit an RFC to IBM for a Queued Partition Access Method, but
you'll need a business case.

Well, so did I, but it finally sunk in that doing so was no longer necessary

Google is uninformative on the topic, but your memory is usually
good. I never used anything beyond 029. Had it a caps key, or
was multi-punch necessary?
On Tue, 30 Apr 2019 06:44:05 +
The 129 keypunch could INTERPRET lower case in already-punched cards, but just
like 029 (and 026 even) ENTERING lower case required multi-punch.
No professional keypunch operator ever entered lower case letters. It would
have required remembering the multi-punch combination for all the letters

Ron,
It is about time that we set some guide lines. Your topic titles with the
product/program name will not help as it is too broad and does not help
with future searches. A More appropriate title for this question would "
How do I insert a increasing sequence number when the key changes?"
Now
Thanks Kolusu. Let me look in to that and see how it can be done.

Hello folks,
This is a curiousity question.
When I do a JOINKEYS operation and I have a really big keyed VSAM file(Say
one million records), and a relatively small (Say 100 records)
non-sequenced flat file, does it make any difference to performance, which
file is File1 and which file is File2?

Well, I was thinking that I could run a utility, and out of it would
magically fall a few records with whatever was in the small flat file plus
a bit more information from the VSAM file.
Again, I am curious.
I don't have a huge VSAM File nor do I have a smaller flat file.

Cameroon,
For Unique keyed files it does NOT make a difference if you have the larger
file as F1 or F2. If your files have lot of duplicates, then we suggest to
use F1 for the larger file.

Peter,
Well, if an interface goes down that z/OS has in its IODF then you'll probably
get loads of messages out about it on the z/OS consoles. However, if another
interface goes down (say an ISL or a backend tape) then you won't.
