Hmm, well its referred to as a session key that you can specify with expiry
date, attempts before disabling and so on - and it works across all our RACF
systems which have an interesting variety of userids for JES2.

Hi all,
We're trying to put some security in place around JES2 NJE nodes, using the
SIGNON=SECURE option (on the NODE statement). We've got it working RACF to
RACF, but are having difficulty with a couple of other security managers, where
the password stored in RACF

Might need to zap the catalog then.. We have TACM that can do that, and there
are other products with the same capability.

Yes, I agree it's a strange issue. The problem is that we - or rather they, as
I'm just providing support and advice - don't know how how big the problem is
until they've done the analysis and this is early stages, where they've hit
enough problems to start asking questions. I suspect a lot of
not to update)?
I think there are many options.
Have you looked on CBTTAPE.ORG to see if there are any COBOL Source scanners?

Hi all,
We are converting some archaic programs written in OS/VS COBOL to Enterprise
COBOL (only to v4 at present). One of the issues that we've hit, well
documented in the migration guide, is that some programs have DCB information
that differs to that used in the JCL.

Hi All,
We've had a minor issue a few times over the past year or so. On our GDPS

Which platform doesn't support ePubs?
I agree with comments others have made regarding consistent formatting of PDFs
(at least, when the authors embed the fonts anyway), and the different aims of
PDF vs e-reader formats (whatever they might be, excluding PDF!).

Hi All,
You may recall that I asked some questions about identifying data alias usage;
I was pointed at SMF14ALIAS, which came in with z/OS 2.1.
z/OS 2.1 does indeed record alias usage, where the dataset in question is
accessed via the alias. However, ISPF does NOT access the dataset via the

This reminds me - some time ago, I posted a question about SMF records and
aliases. A few people responded with the information about SMF storing that
data in a additional field, added in (I think) z/OS 1.13. Subsequently, I've
verified that JCL allocations do indeed record that information.

Well, at the point we're shutting OMVS down, JES2 has already gone, and there

Morning all,
We have noticed an intermittent OMVS shutdown problem, possibly since going to
z/OS 2.1, though I'm not willing to bet on that. The general scenario is that
almost all of the system is down, and we're into stopping OMVS. Systems
automation then issues a stop to OMVS:

It is just this simple:

Wild stab in the dark - is the window size defined by a variable that's somehow
overwritten by another application using the same variable name?
I've see a few applications that appear to use the same-named ISPF variables,
and thus clash when they overwrite each other's variable - the solution

in October - as a result, they PE'd UA76032 and UA76033. Apparently the changes

COBOL5 executables must be program objects.
