Re: Probably a stupid question - concerning Master Catalog Passwords
开云体育TSO prompts for the password, and I type it in.??? If it is a batch job then the console prompts me with a message requiring a response, and it accepts that no problem – IE the R xx type response.?? That works fine.?? ? IN TSO if you do an alloc, or same in RPF – the prompt for the password is on the TN3270 user session – however the response to the user in TSO is simply a *** and the command fails, no specific error reported – but the console reports the IEC331I 056-102 error for the user session. ? This is a pure Jay Mosley instruction generated system, using only material from Jay.?? And there is an example (right at the top) on one of his excellent web pages of a TSO session with the password prompt and correct response – so I know it can work.? . ? Something is awry and I would like to correct the issue.??? I have ban-aided it by simply removing the password, but the fact it should work and does not bugs the heck out of me, as a long time IT guy – “all errors must be corrected”.? ? Thanks, Dave ? From:

Re: Whats the best way to transfer dasd from z/os to Hercules
I did that about 10 years ago. I had a full volume all prepared and had to copy it to a client's machine. All I had was a laptop with IND$FILE, so if I remember correctly I did DFDSS/XMIT/IND$FILE/RECEIVE/DFDSS. It took a while even though there wasn't a huge amount of data.

Show quoted text
By coincidence, I just found out today DFDSS full volume dumps (at least by default) have no compression and not even any de-duplication. I don't remember using ZIP or TERSE in my copy process above, but I may have. On 1/12/2025 8:34 PM, Brian_Westerman via groups.io wrote:

If you have XMIT files can't you use DASDLOAD to pop them on a volume and then mount that to MVS? Dave On Mon, 13 Jan 2025 at 04:40, Mike Schwab via <Mike.A.Schwab=[email protected]> wrote: Definitely one DSN at a time. |

Is it possible to run ICSF in hercules?It is not possible to run ICSF in hercules. It IS possible to run ICSF in z/OS however! :) Unfortunately however, I don't believe it will work using the current 4.7 version of hercules. But I believe it WILL work in the upcoming 4.8 version of Hercules! (still in development). If you can build Hercules for yourself (by using Bill's highly recommended, most excellent "Hercules Helper" script), you could give the 4.8 development version of Hercules a try. (CAVEAT: I know VERY little about (and have VERY little experience with) z/OS! All I know about ICSF is that is has something to do with cryptography on z/OS, and I believe there have been several commits made to Hercules 4.8 related to that. So it wouldn't hurt to give it a try.) p.s. AFAIK no changes to your Hercules configuration file should be necessary to run ICSF in z/OS. Except maybe enabling whatever Facility (or Facilities) might be required for it. But they should be enabled automatically by Hercules. Use the Hercules 'facility' command to be sure. -- "Fish" (David B. Trout) Software Development Laboratories mail: fish@... |
Re: Probably a stupid question - concerning Master Catalog Passwords
Hi Dave, If you use X3270 you can activate the trace and in the trace you can analyze what TSO receives when you enter the password.

Re: Whats the best way to transfer dasd from z/os to Hercules
Definitely one DSN at a time.
Often would XMIT a PDS into a PS file, then each PS file into a PDS member, then XMIT that before transfer. Possibly Terse / UnTerse. Have you tried an EAV volume? On Sun, Jan 12, 2025 at 10:34?PM Brian_Westerman via groups.io <Brian_Westerman@...> wrote:
