Space Allocation 42
Hi, I'm new to this list, hopefully submitting this correctly. I was able to get the TK5 distribution running under VM/370 CE 1.2 and am trying to install the VMEXIT and ZBP0001 patches to improve its behavior under the VM environment. I was able to install the VMEXIT patch without issue and verified that it works. In trying to install the ZBP0001 patch I ran into an error that I had to do some digging to interpret; I was able to track down an IBM article which helped me to understand that one of the data sets it is trying to update ran out of space and needs to be expanded. The article I found (https://www.ibm.com/support/pages/iec030i-b37-04-and-gim24200e-abend-b37-00000004-when-applying-cics-ptf) provides syntax to include in the JCL to expand the available space in the data sets, but I suspect the numbers they gave were intended for more modern OS variants and are probably a bit too high for a S/370 MVS 3.8j environment? As I am not quite sure on this, before I go and do something like try to make the dataset bigger than the mainframe, can someone help me to identify values that would be more appropriate to get past this issue under TK5? This is what was logged by the job that applies the patch: HMA2160 UPDATE SUCCESSFUL - MEMBER=$DCT - LIBRARY=SMPMTS - SYSMOD=ZBP0001 - RETURN CODE=00 HMA2160 UPDATE SUCCESSFUL - MEMBER=HASPINIT - LIBRARY=SMPSTS - SYSMOD=ZBP0001 - RETURN CODE=00 HMA2160 UPDATE SUCCESSFUL - MEMBER=HASPPRPU - LIBRARY=SMPSTS - SYSMOD=ZBP0001 - RETURN CODE=00 HMA4403 ** SMP SUBTASK ABNORMAL TERMINATION - CODE=SYSTEM B37-04 - TARGETDD=SMPWRK3 - ABENDDD=SYSUT2 - PROGRAM=IFOX00 - RETRY WILL NOT BE ATTEMPTED - REASON=07 HMA3020 APPLY PROCESSING TERMINATED FOR SYSMOD ZBP0001 - REASON = SYSTEM UTILITY FAILURE HMA3680 SMPCDS IN STORAGE DIRECTORY SUCCESSFULLY REWRITTEN HMA2050 APPLY PROCESSING COMPLETED - HIGHEST RETURN CODE IS 12 Thank you!

What TK5 is doing during idle time? 20
Hello Everyone! Recently i have noticed peculiar thing, maybe some of you can clarify to me. When i start TK4- or TK5, even if there is no connected terminals - instruction count in Hercules window keeps raising. What is he doing and why? I tried to stop all running services, but instruction count still goes up, it never stops. By the way, DOS360 or OS360 during idle time did not use CPU at all. So what changed? Best wishes Andre

With TK5 and RAKF off, the UNCATALOG instruction in IEHPROGM, IDCAMS and Jol don't work 7
When an UNCATLG is issued and RAKF is turned off so that IEHMOVE works, I get a message: IEC331I 056-006,JOLDEVA ,IEBGENER,RCU ,IGG0CLBM I wonder if there is some sort of bypass? Thanks, Clem Clarke

Esoteric groups 4
Hello Everyone! Where can i find which units were assigned to esoteric group SYSSQ? Can i change those assignments? Also, why ASMFCLG procedure uses SYSSQ by default and not SYSDA? And why there is usually three SYSUT data set definitions in JCL? One for compile, one for link and one for go? Best wishes, Andre

splitPrint for MVS-TK5
For all you MVS-TK5 users: I wrote a modest Go lang program that takes advantage of the Hecules "print-to-pipe" feature to split up print output sent from JES into separate print files each with a name that's taken from the banner info in the job itself. Here is the GitHub link: https://github.com/SYSPROG-JLS/splitPrint Any feedback positive or negative would be appreciated. Jim S.

Data Language/1 for MVT 19
Hello Everyone! Hope you all are doing well. Recently i have found DL/I Distribution at moshix github page. https://github.com/moshix/DLI This thing fascinates me, because it was used for the Apollo program. So i decided to try and install it, to see the message "DLI READY" myself. Well, turns out i know almost nothing about MVT. I have ASP turnkey version(http://www.ibiblio.org/jmaynard/asp.zip), and tried to run some scripts from distribution, but when the system asks for reply, i just don't know what even it asks me about. So i failed miserably at this task. Guys, you are my only hope, perhaps some of you have successfully installed this program or can direct me to a helpful textual guide. I'm uncertain if moshix ever visits this group, but it would be great to see a new video from him on this subject. Best wishes, Andre

Trying to share DASD between Windows and MacOS(Parallels) 12
I am trying to share DASD files between a Windows-10 Hercules on a PC and a Windows-11 Hercules as a virtual machine under MacOS running Parallels. I have specified SHRDPORT 3990 in both configuration files. I keep getting these messages: 12:00:03.493 0x00002FC0 HHC00404E 0:030E CKD file //Mac/AllFiles/Volumes/HP-DRIVE/MVS38J/tk4sys/dasd/FIR100.CCKD: error in function open(): Permission denied 12:00:03.493 0x00002FC0 HHC00007I Previous message from function 'ckd_dasd_init_handler' at ckddasd.c(359) 12:00:03.493 0x00002FC0 HHC01463E 0:030E device initialization failed I am currently pointing to the DASD files on the Windows PC as you can see from the italicized part of the message above. Eventually I want to put all the DASD files on a separate network attached RAID device which is working extremely well among my Mac and Windows systems. And, by the way, it has nothing to do with what OS I am going to IPL. This happens before I perform the LOAD function. Here is a snippet from both config files: Windows 10 Native PC - AUTO_SCSI_MOUNT NO CNSLPORT 3270 SYSGPORT NO SHRDPORT 3990 CONKPALV (3,1,10) CODEPAGE default DEVTMAX 8 DIAG8CMD DISABLE NOECHO ECPSVM NO DEFSYM TK4DSKS "C:/MVS38J/TK4SYS/DASD" 0266 3390 "$(TK4DSKS)/FIR100.CCKD 0267 3390 "$(TK4DSKS)/FIR101.CCKD 0268 3390 "$(TK4DSKS)/FIR200.CCKD 0269 3390 "$(TK4DSKS)/FIR201.CCKD ============================================= Windows-11 Virtual Machine on the Mac AUTO_SCSI_MOUNT NO CNSLPORT 3270 SYSGPORT NO CONKPALV (3,1,10) DEFSYM TK4DSKS "\\Mac\AllFiles\Volumes\HP-DRIV/MVS38J/TK4SYS/DASD" SHRDPORT 3990 0300 3390 \\Mac\AllFiles\Volumes\HP-DRIVE\MVS38J\tk4sys\dasd\FIR101.CCKD 0301 3390 \\Mac\AllFiles\Volumes\HP-DRIVE\MVS38J\tk4sys\dasd\FIR200.CCKD 0302 3390 \\Mac\AllFiles\Volumes\HP-DRIVE\MVS38J\tk4sys\dasd\FIR201.CCKD 0303 3390 \\Mac\AllFiles\Volumes\HP-DRIVE\MVS38J\tk4sys\dasd\FIR300.CCKD 0304 3390 \\Mac\AllFiles\Volumes\HP-DRIVE\MVS38J\tk4sys\dasd\FIR301.CCKD 030E 3390 \\Mac\AllFiles\Volumes\HP-DRIVE\MVS38J\tk4sys\dasd\FIR100.CCKD For some reason, the virtual machine was unable to resolve the symbolic TK4DSKs, but that is another issue for later. Am I going to have to define the DASD using the IP address format (which is a bit confusing in the documentation)? The Windows-10 system will always be the local and the virtual machine on the Mac will always be the remote. On my network, the Windows IP address is: 192.168.12.85 and the Mac IP address is 192.168.12.117. These are subject to change since all devices get their IP addresses using DHCP. Thoughts please. PS: I also cannot find any documentation for MSG HHC00404E anywhere.

Need COBOL COPY Help in MVS Environment 14
I am versed in using the COPY statement for COBOL programs in the VSE environment (DOS/VSE, VSE/ESA), however I am learning the ways of MVS using an OS/390 system. I have several questions: 1. Is there a default or defined library that contain COPYBOOK entries? It seems I need to define a SYSLIB to access it, correct? Note: I noticed for CICS, maps are stored in CICSTS13.CICS.SDFHMAC and CICSTS13.CICS.SDFHCOB contains COBOL copybooks. 2. If not, I suppose I need to create one. What is the recommended naming convention and location? I assume I need to use a HLQ format to define it? 3. Can/should I use the same library for both batch and CICS COBOL programs for my applications? (See Note in question 1 above.) 4. Do the answers above apply to TK4- and MVS/ESA as well? Thanks in advance.

Aliasing and Qualifiers Question 7
Hello folks, I want to be able to access a dataset by using an alias. . . I think! For example, suppose I have the following PDSs on volume 111111: PROJECT1.CNTL.JCL PROJECT1.TEST.JCL PROJECT1.TEST.LOADLIB PROJECT1.TEST.SOURCE PROJECT1.PROD.JCL PROJECT1.PROD.LOADLIB PROJECT1.PROD.SOURCE The catalog is USERCAT.V111111. Can I reference these datasets by creating an alias such that TEST.LOADLIB or PROD.SOURCE points to the corresponding PDS? I wish to create an alias (?) such that TEST refers to PROJECT1.TEST.* or PROD refers to PROJECT1.PROD.*. Is that possible? I read up on multilevel alias facility but still confused and yes, I am an MVS newbie!

Review Help Broken in TK5? 6
Hi All, I’m making one of my periodic attempts to explore IBM mainframe stuff for fun, and have been messing about with the TK5 distribution. For the most part things are going well, but I’m left frustrated by one niggling issue; my copy of review/revedit lacks working help. I am able to pull up the initial display of numbered sections, but upon accessing one the system just dumps me back to the previous screen, with no further information or error message I can observe. Does anyone have insight into what is going on here? I’m not sure where the full-screen help data comes from, but suspect there is something missing. Thanks for any insights ? Best, Zack.

YASQFM42W = "Yet Another Stupid Question From Me" (message 'ids') 5
Hi several messages printed to the console or other destinations by very different programs have the format of my subject first word. Or something like that. I understood that the last letter - 'I', 'W', or 'E' - is an indication of the "type" of message; the question is whether there is a "traditional" format for these ids, especially regarding their length. Just curious... All the best -- Marco Antoniotti Somewhere over the rainbow

Hi all! I'm on the middle of some codification (it's a kind of big routine), and I'm having that "x37" abend while saving. I was able to work on it until it suddently appeared.

Doubts about catalogs. 18
Hi folks. I'm in the process to go deeper in understanding the "data persistence"? (I know it's not a filesystem, I know 'storage' concept somehow overlaps with memory concept... so I don't know really how to call this :-P) in MVS, and after reading around and getting somehow used to the 'catalog' idea, I'm not getting an overall clear picture on the whole stuff. The first point of confussion is, once learning that VSAM catalogs, can contain non-VSAM catalogs, it's not clear to me whether this is a 'de-facto' practice on actual operating systems. I mean, I'm not sure whether I can (should) asume that from VS1 onwards (and therefore MVS and all its distributions... Tk4-, Tk5, etc) VSAM and non-VSAM catalogs do 'merge'... In that scenario: I asume we have a VSAM master catalog but: - Do we have two disctintc/separeted master catalogs? one VSAM and another non-VSAM - Provide two distinct catalogs do exist... is the non-VSAM master catalog contained on VSAM? The second point of confusion is that, once I've learnt that for VSAM, each volume (should I say a DASD?) has (must have?) a single volume catalog, which will be included in the VSAM master catalog (following the catalog hierarchy)... then figuring out how that co-exists with non-VSAM catalogs gets blurry: - Does this means that data in this volume can only be referenced under VSAM catalogs? - Or can data on the volume be referenced by both types of catalogs? Finally, I series of questions come into my mind as I try to figure out how would a new volume/DASD for user data (one independent of the provided ones, as often suggested) would be setup 'regarding the catalog matter' when planing for more that one user using the same volume/DASD (I don't imagine users having the luxury of one of those big things each one back in the days)... The problem in my mind are the 'User catalogs': - I had them in my mind as regular/non-VSAM catalogs, but now I'm no longer sure...are they? - I don't think them being VSAM catalogs, because then, only one catalog could exist on a DASD,isn't it? then ... only one user catalog would exist on a DASD... - Or are user-catalogs non-VSAM? ... if so, can many users have their own user-catalog on the common, data volume/pack/DASD? Hope you could put some light on some of this questions... I'm trying to figure them on my own by reading the docs and books, but I get concepts explained separately, which I can understand conceptually as an atomic piece of information, but I'm failing to put them all together. Thank you in advance. Cheers.
