TSO TEST command on MVS TK5 6
Hi, I'm trying to use TEST to debug a simple assembler language program. TEST's LIST sub-command doesn't work. Is this a known problem? I can share my source code and the JCL I'm using to assemble the program if that word be useful. Mike KB2GHZ

REVEDIT Help 7
Hello all, I try to set the syntax coloring in REVEDIT, but do not know the relevant command (HILITE does not work). The HELP in REVEDIT shows only the first page. If I select say the item LINE COMMANDS, the mask is closed. My questions: - which command can I use for the syntax coloring? - why I can't select a menu item in HELP (see above)? - is there any (Web...?) documentation for the REVEDIT (as well for the REVIEW)? Thanks

help with restoring a dasdi dump/restore tape 19
I have a file, fairly old, that looks like it is a DASDI dump restore tape. It is clearly an EBCIDIC tape. I am not even sure what is on it as I probably received this in the late 1990's. I would like to restore it, if possible. I'm guessing it is a dump of a 3330, but I don't know an do not know enough about the format of a DASDI dump/restore tape to figure it out. Also I'm not sure what format it is in as the filetype says TAP. So, how do I mount this on Hercules? Just like any other tape (het or aws) or something else. I'm presuming that once I get it mounted TAPEMAP will help me figure out what is on it and what DASD volume type I need to restore it. If it is a DASDI dump tape, I guessing I can just IPL from it and restore it to DASD as I would have years ago, but that may not be a correct/best approach in this instance. Guidance will be appreciated. By the way here is a png of the first part of the file. Thanks, - Mark

Using CBT Tape in particular the LISP CBT 476 issue 7
Short version: is the CBT 476 corrupted or there is a job to extract further, so that these PDS members of CBT429.FILE476 (such as MACLIB, CNTL,... etc.) is generated as library for me to use as LISP program and JCLLIB etc. ---- Longer version on accessing CBT tape mostly but NOT CBT 476 on Lisp: After 10 years (last time I found I am asking for this in a yahoo group!), I finally see some CBT tapes and hence for most it seems to work as follows: 1. Under TK5 update 3, you download the dasd and then follow the instruction to override the related .conf (by zip -o) 2. Then after running TK5 3. modify and submit the job as recommended (Strangely the ISPF cc-cc cut can cut to the clipboard but cannot insert ... hence have to retype some JCL). 4. All ok and catalog 5. ISPF =3.4 CBT429 6. Found all the CBT tape mostly work (in the sense you can see allocation result of them) 7. some of these have no allocation info and if you s it it got error and if you e it it will say dataset not on catalog 8. But for 476, it does have allocation info and one can get into it by e i.e. CBT429.FILE476(@FILE476) is readable 10. Now what to do next? In some other PDS I browse they are just some JCL, source etc. But the other files here are odd e.g. CBT429.FILE476(CNTL): CBT429.FILE476(MACLIB) ... many of these file names under this PDS seems to be itself also a library as well. 11. For this tape is there another step I need to run to extract these "libraries" into proper libraries. 12. I must have missed one tool or one JCL somewhere to extract these:

MVS 3.8 TK5 Shutdown 6
Hello everyone! I'm running the fairly new TK5 release 3 under HercGUI version 1.19.0.5966. I've tried both the recommended "/f bsppilot,shutnow" as described in the TK5 Introduction and User Manual and the "s shutdown" command issued from the MVS console. Both begin the shutdown process but stops at IST127I SNASOL STILL ACTIVE- VTAM TERMINATION WAITING IST127I JRP STILL ACTIVE- VTAM TERMINATION WAITING and the system waits. What is the proper way to shutdown MVS and get "$HASP000 ALL AVAILABLE FUNCTIONS COMPLETE" so I can quiesce and terminate my system?

MVS 38J JES2 Spool Unload/Reload
The public domain version of MVS 3.8J does not contain a utility to offload and reload the JES2 spool. I quickly looked at the CBTTAPE.org site and did not find any compatible solutions for 38J. Have any of you folks written such a utility for MVS 3.8J? Any pointers will be appreciated. Let me know if I missed something....?? Thanks in advance, Larry Belmontes

JES2 modification 3
I have developed and tested a modification for the JES2 output writer that issues a devinit command to Hercules for each print data set which splits up the output for printer and punch devices. I am not a system programmer but am good with assembler language. As a result I have no idea how to turn this coder into a usermod for general use. Entries look like If anyone is interested. I am more than willing to share this code. The code was developed from the system generated by Jay Maynard's excellent sysgen instructions. -- J. R. Michael Wegemer Mississauga ON, Canada -- J. R.

MVS 3.8j Master Console 7
Good afternoon. I am trying to use a 3278 model, 4 definition for my master console.

set date and time on MVS-TK5 5
Okay, this is probably a stupid question, my I am very, very out of date. I left the MVS world in the early 1990's and remember that we used to set the date/tome with SYS1.PARMLIB(CLOCKnn). There is no CLOCKnn member in SYS1.PARMLIB in TK5. I am in California and it looks to me like the MVS clock is set to GMT or close to that. As I said it has been decade since I did any MVS system programmers type stuff. Can anyone tell me how to set the time/date on TK5? The SET CLOCK command will only take a two digit year. +

Source for IFOX00, PL/I and other languages 6
Hello, I have finally gotten back to setting up my system and installing TK5. Brings back many fond (and not so fond) memories. I have been trying to locate the source for the assembler (IFOX00), PL/I, Fortran and other items that were source distributed with MVS. More for my own edification and enjoyment, than for any particular reason. I cannot seems to find them on TK5, so I'm wondering if I am missing something or if they are not included, and if not included is there someplace I can find and download them. Can someone point me in the right direction? I would appreciate it. Thanks in advance, - Mark

Little glitch in MVS 3.8J Turnkey 5 Update 3
Hi, I noticed some warnings in datasets on TK5002. And I have resolved some tiny glitches. That's why I have re-uploaded MVS-TK5 Update-3 and the complete MVS-TK5 system. If you have already updated your system to Update-3, you can download Update-3 again and replace the files tk5res.390 and tk5002.299 in the 'dasd' directory. Or.. even better: download https://www.prince-webdesign.nl/images/downloads/tk5res002.zip Place this file in the 'dasd' directory of your system, which is updated with Update-3 and unzip the file in place. Files tk5res.390 and tk5002.299 will be replaced. Updating is not really required and will be automatically resolve in the future update. Cheers, Rob

Changing SID 12
I've changed my SID in SYS1.PARMLIB(SMFPRM00). The new SID displays as expected on the main ISPF menu screen. However, the TSO logon message that displays prior to the first menu load still welcomes me to TK5R: How is the system name getting set for this screen and where do I override it?

Job output in REVOUT 5
Hello all, I've installed recently the TK5, and cannot refind my compile output in REVOUT. Under TK4 I've found it already out, where a HERC01x output is landed, but I've lost the setting, how can I set it in my jobcard. For example, my jobname is HERC01P. If I call 'STATUS HERC01P' in the REVOKE' menu, it does not show anything. Any hints please?

Cobol with sort 7
In an external sort it reads and writes the records. >Then a batch reads again teh the records and writes them again. With a cobol and the internal sort the cobol reads the records gives to sort (memory to memory) and sort gives back the records (memory to memory) and the cobol writes the records. So with internal sort we have half of i/os so we should be quicker than external sort. So Why external sort is quicker ? Is the internal sort so badly written or do i forgot something ? René

(Very minor) I wonder why MVS 3.8 TK5 update 3 is somehow not easily be found 3
Very minor, just wonder. See update 3 via https://www.prince-webdesign.nl/index.php/software/167-turnkey-5-mvs-2 which is also accessible via https://www.prince-webdesign.nl/index.php/software (and you may wonder why its hit rate as update 2(2) is very low 41 vs 24566 the update 2 link). A bit unusal: a) its name is ... TK5 update 2(2) and b) somehow not easily found. In fact, if you click the main site and via the menu you can click Tk5 and get you to update 2, not 3. Only if you click on the menu (but not click Tk5) you get to Update 3. Is there a reason? It is really update 3 as you boot it up (via VM/370 or "natively" under Hercules), it is called update 3.

VTAM 6
Hi, I am new to this group so here's a brief introduction: I am an ex-IBM Mainframe systems programmer. It has been a very long time since I worked with MVS but I recently installed MVS-TK5 and I am now trying to get my old (SNA) network test program working. Just curious if there is anybody out here who has a copy of one of the following manuals: - GX27-0031 Vtam Control Block Overview - GX27-0034 Vtam Reference Summary - GC27-0023 Vtam Debugging Guide - GC27-0027 Vtam Network Operating Procedures I have been searching on the internet but could not find any of the previously mentioned manuals. My network test program was written for ACF/VTAM and MVS/XA and I am now trying to downgrade to VTAM and MVS/SP so it will run on MVS-TK5. Regards, Rob Kemme

Hercules Beginner Needs Some Help 11
Hello All, I am not new to mainframes, but am new to Hercules, and in getting started I have some questions: 1. Why is there no system libraries? No SYS4.* or SYS2.*. Was that supposed to come with the install. If not, where can I get them? 2. The same question applies to the compile/link utilities. Should they be there and if not where can I get them? 3. For jcl that involves no tapes,, super simple, what should the CLASS and MSGCLASS be? I would normally say CLASS=X,MSGCLASS=Y. Is it different on Hercules? I am trying to run a compile which fails on a JCL error, but it won't give me what the error is. I have tried JCLCHK but that is not available. I am probably going to have more questions as I get started, but I just want to get my first compile/link/execute working. Thanks again for all the help. Craig
