It'll be interesting to see how many companies need to enhance their VPN
infrastructure if/when they increase their remote workforce. With the current
coronavirus event, that move to a remote workforce might happen sooner than
planned.

Good point; yeah, that's gotta have an effect, though I suppose it may be
slight.
What I've noticed, in the last five or ten years, is the increasing range of

Yeah, as a software designer I have debated the return code or the like for the
deletion of a nonexistent item. You can argue either way: in one sense what the
user requested failed to happen, but on the other hand s/he wanted it not to
exist and now it does not exist. QED.
While complaining ab
I liked having DD's in my proc, but I had a second one with no DD's like
you recommend. That saved the embarrassment of having to wander over to
another sysprog's desk with my head held low.

Ideally, I would like to create all future data spaces with a size of 2GB,
rather than 2GB OR 2GB-4K (when the returned ORIGIN value is NZ). I looked at
assembler service reference manuals as far back as 1999, and they all state
that a non-zero origin value (4K) is based on a processor dependen

By that logic, every program should always return a zero. If I code
LR 16,1
then the assembler will generate a halfword of zeros, because there is no
register 16. The assembler always generates ze

I once had to BYPASS HOLDERR(). It was a new product. There was a hold against
the FMID itself. Until the FMID was APPLIed, no further action was possible. So
I bypassed that particular HOLDERR, which allowed the FMID itself to APPLY.
That in turn allowed me to RECEIVE more PTFs, including one t

If you are a CICS shop, use REXX/CICS, a quick READ SPOOL and you have your

I did mentioned the need to have an allocation free TMP procedure. However,
if the OP can't login, and do not have sich proc, he can see what is wrong

@Peter, did you have an ENTRY BAR statement in the assembly? I think that
statement was the key ingredient that made IEBCOPY consistently preserve the
alias entry point address. I am not certain of what was the key ingredient

Just ran into similar problem with an SDSF PTF with a missing pre-req (z/OS

IBM agreed that the PTF was omitted from the pre-req chain.
If anyone really wants the info, I will dig it up and post.
