If you are really desperate I guess you could raise a case
with IBM support.

Good afternoon, the only administrator is us,

we are trying to see why it happens.

Good afternoon, the only administrator is us,

we are trying to see why it happens.

We find the following scenario:

We have put hold recycle/migration/dump/backup/recall and canceled all the requests against HSM, then we have put in release recycle, put an available tape and sent a recycle but it continues to fail and does not do any recycle.

We have done another test activating the migration and trying to send a file to migrate and everything is ok.

It seems like HSM ignores the recycles we send it and continues to spit out that message nonstop.

it may be that HSM has become a little bird and you have to restart it?

The drives it says are offline or not accessible are old and have not been in operation for a long time. Could someone tell me the steps to follow to solve this error?

Which datasets currently have the COPYLIB members for VSAM usage?

I've installed the latest and greatest version of REVIEW (50.3), and quoting the help file:

FORMAT? - Format file data according to Assembler data definition?source code in the nominated member of the REVFMTS file.?VTOC entries can be formatted without the REVFMTS file.? ? ? ? ?

Does a file to connect to this DDNAME actually exist, or is it in the same class as Unicorns and easily configured VTAM setups?

I'll see your retentiveness and? raise you the original scanned text:

Yea, that's a double quote in the middle, not two apostrophes.? In the manual's font it s more obvious, because they curl differently and are less bold.

-ahd-

p.s. We're programmers — all the good ones are?retentive.

you must enclose the name in apostrophes (5-8 punch).

If one of the special characters is an apostrophe,

identify it by coding two consecutive apostrophes,

for example, DSNAME='DAYS"END'.

If ISPF/PDF does not allow certain characters in member names, there is a good reason for that.? I doubt that JCL would allow it either.

?A reading from the Book of OS/VS2 MVS JCL (GC28-0692-5):

If a data set name includes special characters as part of the name (the characters do not have special significance to the system), you must enclose the name in apostrophes (5-8 punch). If one of the special characters is an apostrophe, identify it by coding two consecutive apostrophes, for example, DSNAME='DAYS"END'.

When I was talking to someone about how Clarkson College (our mutual alma mater) had renamed their IEH* & IEB* utilities and then front-ended them with a security wrapper under the original names, they noted that some shops renamed the modules to lower case.?

-ahd-?

p.s. Amazing what forcing IEHLIST?to core dump (odd how that SYSPRINT DD had zero tracks allocated to it!) can show a person.? The system programmer knew I had a list of the real utility module names, and it drove him nuts.? Ah, the glorious results of a misspent youth

If you don't want PRINTER 2 started, logic would dictate that you should be
depressed by it starting JES2 devices, not impressed by it starting JES2
devices. :-)

Apropos of nothing, recalling a story at my first job back in 1980s ...

One of our system programmers put?Top Secret Security (a RACF competitor) on our production MVS/SP system that had been up (naked) for several months and had live production running on it. He loaded TSS, installed it, brought up it in warn-only mode, and generally took his time so he didn't shoot production processing in the butt (or the head).

But in the midst of this process, one day I heard a loud "Oops!" from him three cubicles away. He then rose calmly yet purposely, and strolled directly into the machine room (presumably to halt the batch initiators while he fixed whatever the "Oops!" was for.)?

I mention this because I'm going to put RAKF 1.2.0 on my TK3SU-based FrankenSystem.? I was following the first couple of steps as I read them, and then … I stopped.? I dumped the PDF of the instructions to hardcopy, and I'm going to take my time and RTFM. First. The Whole Thing.

Maybe I can avoid a loud F-flavored "Oops!" myself.??

May The Hack Be With Us All,

Drew

p.s. Step One: System Backup.? Mine runs every night.? :-)
