Short back ground - very :)
MVS like all multi-user O/S's require a user to log in to it using their user name and password.
In the case of MVS it has more than one mechanism that handles this where the first is needed and others subject to MVS system set up:
TSO:?? requires your user ID (up to 8 Chars) and Password (again up to 8 Chars)? - For later versions of the OS these can be longer angain subject to set up.
RAKF (RACF) Requires that any job submitted must have a USER and PASSWORD keywords included.
??? This is because you could run a JCL script etc from another users PDS or a system wide one
Now if you have set up RAKF correctly the you do NOT bother adding the extra keywords USER and PASSWORD as these are supplied by the system during the submission processes i.e., via an TSO EDIT step etc with a SUB(MIT) as against just sending the JCL job via any other method including stored as a PDS member.
Just remember this for any given task there is always six or more ways of doing the same task under a mainframe O/S.

Hi Everyone !
I'm starting to learn about MVS, so I try to import data into MVS, to use as input for some tests, with ISAM and VSAM.
Since it's about 30.000 registers, IND$FILE and FTP fail, so I'll try to read it with a virtual tape.
To read my data I know I need a JCl to copy my dataset, from tape to disk.
So I wrote this JCL, to read a small script, from the card reader, into the disk.
Thing is RAKF, does not allow me to write on disk from card reader jobs. ( But it works OK, from a bach inside my MVS USER)
The messages are as follows:

Re: Tur(n)key TK4- clock 1 hour fast-bug?
D'oh!?
I had a quick look through PARMLIB, but I missed (PARMTZ). It was set E one hour of GMT, which would match if Volker Bandke set it for Germany, I guess.
Fixed in parmlib, TZOFFSET put back to 0
Thank you :-)

That always felt like a kludge to me also.? I prefer to keep time zone

No, MVS 3.8J doesn't automatically adjust for daylight saving time.? Its
time zone setting needs to be adjusted when we spring forward or fall back.

Re: Fullscreen debugger for MVS 3.8J?
Sorry to delay replying.? Busy week! Thanks for all the replies.
Harry Mernick was a senior programmer in? an office of (mostly) systems programmers at Nasty Wetmonster in London. He was due to retire in the 1990s.
We also had Steffen Fraas, who was well known in the JES3 world.
I remember hearing of ACE TEST, but I never got to try it.
DDT sounds good. I'll look at it when I've backed up :-)
The alternative is to write my own. But my memory of 3270 datastreams is half gone-it took me an hour or 2 just to clear the screen and get "Hello, world!" in full screen mode :-)
I'll report back if I mske any progress.

Hi Roops
The MVSDDT debugger Joe mentioned comes pre-installed and ready to use with TK4-. See TSO HELP member MVSDDT for usage information. It is _the_ best debugger for MVS 3.8 systems I know of.

I've used Hercules on and off over the? years, but I've never seen an MVS debugger as good as one I used at Nasty Wetmonster Bank. Written by Harry Mernick.
It was a set of extensions to the TEST command, but we didn't see the TEST prompt. It looked similar to ISPF browsing the assembly listing, but with PSW info and gp registers on show and the next instruction highlighted. Move the cursor and hit a PF key to set a breakpoint, single step on another PF key.
There was even one for authorised code. I guess it ran under the authorised TMP.
Has anyone seen such a thing? It would be dead handy debugging some macros and a compiler I'm porting.
Thanks for any pointers.

Re: Fullscreen debugger for MVS 3.8J?
Hi Folks,
An easy way but not perfect, but it will help you.
Write the SYSUDUMP or SYSABEND to a file and browse the file with RPF.
You can set labels with the LABEL subcommand and find back with the L subcommand.
Press F1 in RPF browse for more information.
Cheers,

Re: Fullscreen debugger for MVS 3.8J?
Roops, ? When I co-wrote Top Secret Security for MVS in 1981, I wrote an APF-authorized tester nicknamed ACETEST, similar in concept?to TSO Test but much smarter - ? It can run as an STC, Batch job, TSO command, or best as an ISPF Application. ? As an ISPF application, it supports full screen viewing of the PSW, registers, and memory,?and?you can edit memory simply by over-typing. ? You can test both APF-authorized and non-authorized programs. ? Full breakpoint support is available, and the greatest feature is that you can set a breakpoint, then go into STEP mode, which allows?you to step through code one instruction?at a time. After each instruction is executed the PSW, registers, and relevant storage areas are displayed. To step to the next instruction all you have to do is simply hit enter and the step breakpoint will move automatically to the next instruction to be executed. ? You can?set breakpoints in code which has been loaded into CSA or SQA. You can even set a global breakpoint in?common code (except real LPA), such that when any program in any address-space hits the breakpoint, Acetest is?automatically invoked, like an intelligent SLIP trap. ? You can test multiple programs at the same time as each program runs under its own TCB. I used to bring up IMS and CICS under?Acetest all the time. Then I could put breakpoints in Top Secret code, or in CICS code for example. I remember testing CICS MRO, and having 4 CICS regions, each running in its own address space under?Acetest, with breakpoints all over the place... ? Acetest also has features like?FIND, which will find a data string anywhere in memory, WHERE, which will?tell you where a given address is, as in what offset in what module, or what?subpool.?All of the syntax is simple command based, like LOAD modname1, AT R3%+20, ASCB+40%, etc. ? I automatically include ACETEST with my ISPF. If you wish I can send both to you. ? Wally ? ? ? ?

Re: Fullscreen debugger for MVS 3.8J?
Some years ago I talked to Dave Cole at Colesoft Inc. (makers of z/XDC, IMHO the best assembler debugger on the z market) about contributing his old, pre-XA version of XDC to the Hercules/MVS3.8 project and he agreed, but then could not find any source tapes earlier than MVS/XA.? He even asked on the IBM-MAIN list for anyone who might have an old tape of his software that didn¡¯t get thrown out or reused, but no one ever came up with one. ? He felt that his XA code was too deeply structured and dependent on XA internals for him to try to re-create the pre-XA version from the source tapes that he could find. ? Can you tell us who Harry Mernick is/was?? A fellow employee at that bank or a software developer working for an ISV or . . . ? ? I am told that the MVS-DDT debugger available for MVS3.8 works well, but I have not had time to delve into it myself, so I don¡¯t know if it fits your needs. ? Peter ?
