Another application by the VMSG author was parasite/story. It used the PVM logical device/3270
facility and had a HLLAPI type scripting language (before the advent of ibm/pc) ... it was
after REX was available internally. Another remarkable thing was that the executable

Our storage architect is trying to get us to use 3390-9's instead of 3390-3's
for paging. I know that z/VM doesn't use PAV or HyperPAV for paging, and that
more devices means more concurrent I/O's. Has anyone actually tried changing
from 3390-3's to one-third as many 3390-9's? If you have,
We went from -3s to -9s, but not to 1/3 as many. We converted because we (a)
ran out of page space, and (b) needed to fit within the limits for the CP_Owned
list. We actually went to more -9s than the number of -3s that we were using.
Since then, we have not had as great a load on the system as
Just have a look at how busy your current page packs are today. Then we can
predict something.
(eg if you hardly ever page, you will not notice a difference)

Hello Dennis,
We did go from 3390-3 to 3390-9. Difference is that the 3390-3 disk had other
stuff on it than the paging function.
I have a separate 3390-9 for paging and another 3390-9 for spooling.
Went from EMC ESCON to DS6800 with FICON. Everything was just better.
No paging or any other
We allow to attend online courses. Any suggestions?

Hi
I want to automate the copying of the RACF SMF records over to z/OS each
night. I have the basics down on how to do this but the one thing that I
am not sure about is how to determine the SMF data file that is not in
use so that I can FTP that file to z/OS. My thoughts were to create a

Services or Steve Lee of the ITS SDCoE for related matters.

You should place your code in user RACFSMF: this user is autologged when
RACF's SMF disk is full (that is this RACFVM 301 or 302). Th standard
code will copyfile it onto RACFSMF 191 and erase it from 301/302. Extend
the code with your FTP stuff.
If you surely want to process each night (and not
