The problem that we have is that some of the prints come from a CMS users rdr. The originid is what actually gets passed. If the report came from the vse system to the CMS user, then the origin id is the name of the VSE guest, and that can't be changed that I can see. We would need to somehow

Depends upon which type of DASD you have. If you're using a SAN, use the SAN's manager tools to reformat the DASD, 3 passes will do. Or, you can have IBM come in and scrub it for you. Your regular customer engineer can perform the reformatting at the SAN level for you. If you truly require

Class A commands

Greetings, Yesterday afternoon we had one of our tape operators accidently FORCE off a VSE machine. We noticed he had Class A in his directory. If we remove class A what CP commands will he now be unable to perform? Is there a list of CP Class A commands somewhere? Thanks, Mike

What I had done, in the past, was to write a FORCE EXEC that would control usage (or prompt for confirmation). Sure it could be bypassed by a simple #CP FORCE, but it would catch the casual use of FORCE. Frank M. Ramaekers Jr. From: The IBM

I would never recommend giving a tape operator class A.. besides FORCE -- they can SHUTDOWN the system .. also XAUTOLOG users.I can't think of any class A commands offhand that I would want a tape operator to have access to. The 'right' way to restrict things is to determine which privileged

Hello Everyone, I would suggest the ICKDSF REVAL or INSTALL for real DASD (not supported on the 1750 - DS6800). Seems to me that ICKDSF INIT with purge and some other parameters would do what you want. Or reformat the Ds6800 using the Storage Manager software. Ed Martin Aultman

I doubt that your tape operator needs Class A. Here, that function only has BDG. I am not sure why it has D. It is probably historical from the time when there were co-located printers and tape drives. I suspect that BG would be sufficient. Regards, Richard Schuh

Hello Scott, That is what I was missing. The TRKFMT will work in the DS6800 too (1750) . You must have the required CYLRANGE parameter: specify a range of cylinders and ERASEDATA with (IIRC) Cycles of 3 or more. Would someone please verify this? The TRKFMT command performs

Hi Daniel, The WWPN listed in your Q FCP outputs and that from the SCSIDISC tool are similar enough that I suspect they are different subchannels on the same FCP card, and not of your target DASD subsystem. Are there other WWPNs listed in the SCSIDISC output beyond what you have sent? If so,
