DDR Tape-to-Tape (3590 = 3490)

Afternoon all, yes, we are going backwards.. A customer of ours has received a z/OS 1.12 Serverpac on two 3590 cartridges. Cleverly, he does not possess such drives, only 3490 units. Would it be possible to do a DDR tape-to-tape copy using the above as input and Tonnes of 3490's as

You could also use the TAPECOPY utility from the VM Workshop tapes. I'm not sure how it'll handle having the output tape be shorter than the input tape, but at least you wouldn't have to count files.

From my personal viewpoint, I will hope that it means they may see a need for a more advanced 3270 emulator for the Linux desktop. x3270 works, but is a PITA to configure, IMO. I'd be willing to pay Windows prices for an excellent TN3270E emulator. Please, no wine! -- John McKown Systems

It seems (though I did not set this up so I am not certain) that the VM users are only not connected for a moment, when things get reset (I believe monitoring is stopped every hour to send off data, and then restarted and the user then becomes re-connected). The following display (Q MONITOR)

AH, OK, I understand. We run a monwrite that gets never stopped. Within MONWRITE we run a custom pipeline, it retrieves data with the STARMON stage and a second stage waits for the cleanup command with STARMSG. The cleanup command forces the monwrite machine to cleanup the disks. Before that we

X3270 is crude, granted. But it is consistent, and it is the only 3270 emulator that covers as many platforms. I have offered my $HOME/.x3270pro repeatedly (not here), though it is so old that I really don't remember all that is in it ... or why. This much I remember: F keys are PF keys, Alt-1

Windows is more specific about its requirements for line termination. Generally it must be CR/LF. I have found some editors and other tools on Windows to be really confused when fed a Unix text file, for example. Can you bring up the file with WordPad? (aka 'write') Can you 'type' the file?

I have a good setup for x3270. I'm always open for something better. No, I don't have the talent to do it myself. Reading RFCs and converting them to something useful is beyond my ability. Perhaps if I did a tcpdump and looked at the traffic, I'd have a better idea of how it works. John McKown
