CPU Dedicate

2011-06-06 Thread Mark Lorenc
On a slightly different DEDICATE topic. I'm wondering if anyone is using the CP DEDICATE command to dedicate a virtual CPU to a real (logical) CPU . My impression is there is not much use of that function, but I would like to find out for sure if there is. Feel free to contact me offline:

REXXDATE MODULE

2011-06-06 Thread Schuh, Richard
We have a legacy (pejorative intended) program named REXXDATE MODULE for which we have no source. It is dated 8/3/1994, which predates my arrival at Visa. Does anyone know if this is something that was made generally available to the VM community and, if so, is the source available? I has

Sending messages to z/OS from z/VM using RSCS

2011-06-06 Thread Hughes, Jim
I am able to send messages to a z/OS TSO userid using the RSCS command MSG from z/VM. How would the TSO userid send a message to me on the z/VM node? z/VM node is DIS3081. Z/OS node is MVSSYS. Would the z/OS TSO userid be able to issue commands to the z/VM system or would PROP be involved? TIA

Re: PROBLEMS WITH DEDICATE DASD IN z/VM 6.1

2011-06-06 Thread Bill Bitner
In terms of performance, here are the key factors between Dedicated and Minidisks: 1. Dedicated DASD is not eligible for MDC, while minidisks (full pack and partial pack) are eligible. 2. Some hardware Storage Servers do not handle the I/Os that CP generates for partial, and in some cases,

I do recall this function and even used it (trying to find archives) back in the pre-Y2K conversions. The internal DATE() function in REXX seems to provide most of what is needed, though. You can translate date formats .. and I usually do date calculations using DATE('B). I'm pretty sure

Jim, From TSO you can use: XMIT (or TRANSMIT) node.userid That places you into EDIT on a file permitting multiple lines to be entered, after which you press PF3 to send the file. The message appears as a reader file on the node.userid on the target VM system. See:
