Hi Mike,


I have understood as much from the messages regarding the
problem/annoyance. ;) I have mentioned it just as the only
discrepancy from the previous experience on Tk5 I was able to notice.
It really do not bother me, within my nowledge (noob here ?),
that is a logon "feature" and do not change my perception of the
quality of the system. ;)

Cheers!


Hello Fernando,

The RAKF messages regarding DIAG8CMD and SVC244 are triggered by
BREXX. BREXX is checking for these RAKF profiles.
Unfortunately RAKF has the default behavior to log
such profile checks. We already changed the
BREXX to disable logging for racheck calls. We will
do some further testing and will release a fixed version
in the next days.

Mike

Thank you Rob at al.


Complete clueless newbie here. Just followed the update from 2
to 3 in the webpage. Everything worked like a charm.

Other than the messages about DIAG8CMD and SVC244 at the console,
there was no problem so far.


Once again, thank you all for the fantastic product.

Cheers!



Hi Folks,

Today on the 57th birthday of our Dutch king I am pleased to
announce the third update of MVS 3.8J Turnkey 5. This update
contains many new components and a huge amount of changes.

*The summary of updates are:*

Larry Belmontes has developed a Tutorial for ISPF. This tutorial,
LBTUTOR, can be accessed via ISPF option T. The installed REVIEW
panels have been converted to ISPF 2.2 format. ISPF option 3.6 now
provides a Hardcopy function (CPRT36). The TSO command TSOEXEC is
now available. TSOEXEC was introduced with the TSO/E Program
Product not available for TK5 users. To provide the same
functionality for TK5 users Rob Prins has developed the TSOEXEC
command. The purpose of TSOEXEC is to execute authorized TSO
command processors in a non-authorized environment. The only
restriction is that the TSO user should have access to resource
SVC244 in the FACILITY class. If no security product is
installed, then access is always granted. Usermod RP00003 has
been applied to SVC 24 so that the device information returned by
DEVTYPE now provides the correct number of cylinders for the
various models of 3380 and 3390 DASD devices. See the document:
“TK5 Usermod Directory”. Hercules has been upgraded from 4.6 to
4.7. Only the Windows 64 and Linux 64 binaries are upgraded. The
bug in LOGON (,)APPLID=xxxxxxxx in ETHLOGVM has been resolved
with a rework of usermod ZBP0002. SYS1.TK5.INSTALL.CNTL has been
moved from TK5RES to TK5001 and renamed to TK5.INSTALL.CNTL to
better reflect its purpose in providing the installation JCL used
to install the packages on the TK5001 and TK5002 volumes. ISPF
option 3.7.V package DVTOC updated to V1R0M03 to fix an ABEND0C4
when running authorized. Ed Liss has upgraded his MAP3270 package
from 3.1.0 to 3.2.1. Bob Polmanter has upgraded NJE38 from 242 to
250. The most significant update is the MEMBERS keyword in the
TRANSMIT command. With RECEIVE you can replace members in an
existing partitioned dataset. Package BREXX/370 has been updated
from V2R5M2 to V2R5M3L01. Rob Prins has updated RPF from V1R9M6
to V1R9M7. See RPF option 7.5 for a summary of the changes. Greg
Price has updated Review 50.4 to 51.2. SPY full screen display of
3270 system console screens has been upgraded to support all
terminal sizes. TK5 Introduction and User Manual page 5 PDS
command package upgraded from 8.6.20.0 to 8.6.22.0. An I/O device
system generation has been performed to include the following :-
o 16 CTCs at unit addresses 700-708 and 710-717 o 16 CTCs at unit
addresses 800-808 and 810-817 o 32 non shared 3380 DASD at unit
addresses 1E0-1EF and 2E0-2EF o 32 non shared 3390 DASD at unit
addresses 1F0-1FF and 2F0-2FF The 3390 DASD WORKnn volumes now
have a use attribute of PUBLIC instead of STORAGE for
standardized allocation of permanent data sets. ZP60009, a
usermod essential for the successful operation of full screen
TSO/VTAM applications, and with a long history of rework, has
again been reworked by Greg Price. Some issues were found with
3270 data stream processing for large 3270 screens. Greg stated:
“It's taken 21 years, but this time for sure!” From a suggestion
by Volker Bandke, the initial CLIST ISPLOGON is updated and the
(B)REXX exec $CONCAT is added. OS/360 Sort/Merge for MVS 3.8
updated to Version 1.03 to increase the seven digit record count
fields in information messages to eleven digits. HTTPD server is
upgraded from 1.0 to 2.0.0

Please download MVS-TK5 Update-3 or the complete MVS-TK5 system
with Update-3 included from:

To install the system, please read page 22 of the Introduction and
user manual (


). Please read also the Announcement Letter. (


)

Have a lot of fun with this "new" version of MVS 3.8J

Cheers,
Rob
