It would be cool if IBM published the JZOS Jar on Maven central. We have a centralized company Artifactory server and have uploaded the z/OS specific Jars like JZOS, RACF etc which is so much better then uploading to your PC. On 2/12/22 19:12, Steve Austin wrote: Thanks Kirk, The

Question: When you say "SMB (no longer supported at all on z/OS)", are you referring to VSAM SMB = "VSAM System Managed Buffering"? As in the JCL parameters AMP='ACCBIAS=DO,etc.'? Or were you referring to the old Samba (I think that's what it was called) file sharing protocol? Peter

Yeah, I was really surprised by it too. Apparently, it's related to the way the network configurator part stores the configurations (or so IBM told me in a PMR, and their suggestion was to change the ownership of the filesystem). On Fri, Dec 2, 2022 at 2:16 PM Mark Zelden wrote: > On Fri, 2 Dec

Personally, I only recommend doing this if you're a heavy consumer of the REST APIs and want them to be highly available. Otherwise, let one instance service the plex, z/OSMF is enough of a resource hog as-is. I'm going off of memory but this is how I did it at my old shop...purely for HA REST

My recollection is that it didn't really become a viable alternative to SVS until MVS 3.7. Soon after was MVS 3.8 and then IBM embarked on a series of other versions and designations, starting, I think, with MVS SE1 later renamed to MVS SE1.1 Lennie -Original Message- From: IBM Mainframe

Well, the way that it was originally is that you had to restore both foo and bar, so the PE in foo had no relevance to RESTORE processing. If you want to enhance RESTORE processing to allow a partial restore then it becomes an issue. -- Shmuel (Seymour J.) Metz http://mason.gmu.edu/~smetz3

we do share zfs's but maybe my choice of SERVER options and the autostart group was flawed I really don't have a need to start multiple servers, for testing, I take the lazy route, shutdown the prod server for a while, and start the new instance on my test LPAR when I need to test. Carmen

I could never get a single instance with multiple LPARs connecting to the same server because we do not share our ZFS datasets, specifically, the one mounted at /global. Hopefully I was just doing something incorrectly. I use 1 server per LPAR and each has its own autostart group. On Fri, Dec
