Question about source layout for HISTSUM file

I am trying to find some sort of source layout for the HISTSUM file. I was hoping to write a program to read the file and either write some reports or extract part of the data into another file. This is going to be done on a z/OS (for give me) system. We are currently running z/VM 5.1. >From t

Re: Mainframe Consoles

We use PCs with 19 inch flat panel monitors. We run 4 "sessions" on each screen. The PCs are running IBM PCOMM under Windows-XP. They are all connect to OSA-ICC cards. At the local site we run one monitor per PC and at a remote site we are running two monitors per PC. Paul -Original Mes

Re: Keep VM 24X7 365 days

We are running two IFLs. One on a z9 the other on a z990. With help from the LAN network team and using a VSWITCH on each IFL we can move a Linux around as needed. The users don't know it moved because the IP address does not change. All DASD can be accessed from either IFL. Paul Feller AIT

I have tried a search from the IBM main web page for www.vm.ibm.com to see what I got. Any hits I got I could not connect to any of the urls listed. Examples: http://www.vm.ibm.com/news/webstuff.html www.vm.ibm.com/ebusiness/ Paul Feller AIT Mainframe Technical Support -Original Messa

Up to now I have been using the "old" 3270 access. It always work fine for me. I have talked to other staff members who are using the web access. They all say the same thing. They have a problem with the search function in Service Information Search (SIS). Sometimes new is not always better.

Re: Parallel Sysplex under VM

I don't know if this will help. We are not running z/OS under z/VM. The MIH for all of our DASD is set to two minutes (DASD=02:00). Here is the JES2 info on the checkpoint. DORMANCY=(120,500) and HOLD=40. We are running with 6 z/OS lpars in the same JES2 MAS. Paul Feller AIT Mainframe Tech

Re: HSA size on Z9 BC

I'm not at the office so I can't check what the HSA size is for our two z9 boxes. I do know that it is close to 1.3 to 1.5 gig. The larger HSA size started with the z890 and z990 boxes. I agree with what was said about IBM taking customer storage for the HSA. It would be nice if IBM could find

Re: Maintenance for VSWITCH

We are running z/VM 5.1 with RSU0502 and some additional PTFs. Our VSWITCH setup is running okay. We run our Linux guest over the VSWITCH connections. They talk to both z/OS and other platforms with no issues. Here is what our QUERY VMLAN shows for maintenance level. QUERY VMLAN

Re: HSA size question

Be careful with how you define the MAXDEVS. It will have an effect on your ability to do dynamic IO gen changes. I agree that the HSA has gotten a lot bigger than it was. IBM's answer is it has to be bigger to support all the new stuff. Paul Feller AIT Mainframe Technical Support [EMAIL PRO
