Re: Probably a stupid question - concerning Master Catalog Passwords
Many thanks for digging into this. I was just living with the issue and figured that I had built my MVS incorrectly; it's nice to understand what the cause is. On Tue, Jan 21, 2025 at 12:07 AM, Dave Trainor - N8ZFM wrote:

Ok, I'm really stupid. I don't know how to download it to rebuild it.

So.... if we can get the program version bug fixed in both CCKDDUMP and CCKDDU64, then I would need a copy of the updated/fixed source code for both, as well as the updated/fixed object code for both , *AND* the updated/fixed load library module (linked executable?) for both as well. (Is that asking too much?) Yes, I can take care of that. I'd like to get confirmation from Brian and/or Jay, or anyone else for that matter, that the modifications work in their environments, before sending out the final src, obj and load.

The "cdh_vrm" field in the CKD/CCKD dasd device header is the version of the Hercules CKD/CCKD device's file format, not the version of the program that happened to create that particular dasd image file.

Re: Whats the best way to transfer dasd from z/os to Hercules
I've amended CCKDDU64 to cater for 3390's larger than model 27's. It's not pretty, but it seems to do the job. I've dumped a model-54 that has datasets allocated at cylinders higher than 32760, checked it with cckdcdsk64, attached it to Hercules and all appears good. I've also dumped a Model-9 with the updated and the previous CCKDDU64. A binary comparison comes up clean, except for cdh_vrm in the ckd device header - the version of CCKDDU64 was updated to 0.3.2. Where can I place the updated source? Also, would anyone need a load module? Andrew |
Re: REVIEW R51.6
Hi,

Broadly speaking, copy the load modules into a linklist library and then issue the desired TSO command(s) at the READY prompt. Examples of such TSO commands are REV mydsname REV SYSPROC F RFE REVOUT REVLEV FSH ALLOC O(UNIT) For extra functionality copy the CLISTs with names beginning with REV into a SYSPROC DD library. If you want, you can copy the HELP members into a SYSHELP DD library. If you have a TK-based system then likely these libraries already have versions of these programs. Look in libraries like SYS2.CMDLIB and SYS2.LINKLIB to find out where the existing copies are. The PANELS members can be copied into an ISPPLIB DD library, but if you have such a library then they may already be there. Cheers, Greg On 21/01/2025 8:03 pm, zpmain via groups.io wrote:

Re: Probably a stupid question - concerning Master Catalog Passwords
开云体育Just to update the group on this issue I experienced, and in the interest of increasing knowledge and so if anyone else has this issue. ? The 056-012 is a RACF failure error message, thi sonly occurs because I have a MVS 3.8j system built without RACF (which postdates MVS3.8j) or more importantly RAKF which is a part of the TK series releases.?? The problem occurs because I was using the excellet application RPF and the utility 3.2 menu to preform an alloc, with a master catalog password set, as per the standard build process defined by Jay Moseley.? ? RPF does a RACF check as part of its alloc, and thus fails to correctly pass the entered password to TSO, responds with a RACF failure error 056-012.?? If there is no master catalog password set, then RPF does not preform a check and its able to alloc as expected. So this condition only occurs given the specific set of circumstances.? ??Attempts by others, confirm this, and recompiling RPF from source with the RACF/RAKF check deselected do not correct the issue.?? Possibly Rob with look at this, however his software is an asset to have, and if you are aware of this and do not have a Mast Cat Password set, then its not a problem, or if you have RAKF installed and setup, its not a problem.? At the current time, you can choose to either, 1) Setup RAKF, 2) Nullify the Mast Cat password and choose not to have one, or 3) not use RPF for an alloc and only use batch jobs to preform allocations – I consider option 3 a poor choice. ? My purpose here is just that since I received no hits on google searching for the 056-012 error code in versions of MVS prior to MVS-XA, that ?I may save someone from head scratching and they will know the source, and how to bypass the condition. ? Many thanks on my part to those who helped me in determining the cause.? It required some hours and effort to track it all down and its much appreciated. ? Thanks, Dave Trainor, NBZFM Louisville, KY?? ? From:
