Re: Rexx TRANSLATE command

The translate function is part of REXX, not part of ISPF. You are having an ISPF issue. I've never tried modifying ZSCREEN, but I suspect that translating the whole thing is messing up the format that ISPF expects. Is ISPF-L still a thing? -- Shmuel (Seymour J.) Metz http://mason.gmu.edu/~smet

Re: Anyone with zCX docker hands on?

On many archs, ChaCha20-Poly1305 is implemented using vector instructions. On z/OS, OpenSSH now supports a SIMD (vector) enhance version. Not quite as good as CPACF with AES+SHA256 however. Kirk Wolf Dovetailed Technologies http:// coztoolkit.com On Thu, Nov 9, 2023, at 12

Sv: Rexx TRANSLATE command

I think that I found it ZSCREENI is just a "photo" of the screen, so '00'x is presented as "blank" (nondisplay) in Edit and View, but '.' when in Browse. So the '.' will be treated as a '.' ('4B'x) and not what is really is ('00'x) So VCURSOR will not work in that situation //Lasse -Urspr

Hi Kolusu, I have one question about a situation that just came up. If the input file has no records to process, I would like to set a return code so I can bypass further processing. Is there a way that I can tweak this SORT input that you gave me to know if the SORTCMD1 file is empty, and set a

I believe that NULLOUT might help you here. (OPTION Statement) Temporarily overrides the NULLOUT installation option, which specifies the action to be taken by DFSORT when there are no records for the SORTOUT data set, as indicated by an OUT count of 0 in message ICE054I RC0 specifies that DFSO

SMF record for number of program executions?

Hello, I need to count the number of times some programs are executed on z/OS. Not job names or CICS Tranids, but the times Cobol object code executed. Does anyone know if a SMF record exists to record this, or does anyone have an Assembler program to read the SMF and produce the counts? Or a M

Re: SMF record for number of program executions?

If the program you want is specified in EXEC PGM= statement, then it is possible to use SMF 30. If it is a subroutine, then it will be much more complicated. Best Regards Ituriel do Nascimento Neto z/OS System Programmer Em quinta-feira, 9 de novembro de 2023 às 16:01:27 BRT, L H escre

As @Ituriel says, If you want the jobstep program it is found in some of the SMF 30 records. No trick to finding it. IIRC it is very straightforward. "Every program" comes up here from time to time and is basically impossible. There is no supported way. If you want to intercept SVCs (and I suspe

Re: SMF record for number of program executions?

If you are willing to write an exit to get the info, you can get it via a CSV exit (I forget its name, but ALL "LOAD"s go through it). Understand, if you use that exit, it has to have a very short code path, can't cause a wait of any kind, or you will cause problems for all address spaces in th

If the question is how many times a module was loaded, IZSAM, and several others can answer it. If the question is how many times that [sub]program was actually invoked, IZSAM and similar can't help. As far as I know there is only one product able to do it. Having a vested interest I will refr

Re: SMF record for number of program executions?

As others have pointed out, monitoring the "fetch" of a load module is very doable, whereas monitoring any subsequent usage of the executable is much more difficult. In z/OS 3.1, SDSF introduced the "module fetch monitor" feature that was inspired by the previous Poughkeepsie tool "MFM". We sit

Re: SMF record for number of program executions?

While others have already responded about how to determine how many times a program has been fetched into storage, determining how many "times" it was used (executed) requires a tool like STROBE that provides statistics on how many samples were taken while in the programs code. Michael At 01:

I believe the capability of understanding and counting program LOADs is in the latest version of SDSF for z/OS 3.1. (I hope Rob Scott will correct this if I am wrong). However, I do not think this necessarily answers the question posed. That question related to the number of times a program is e
