OS/VS1 Operations
|
I recently completed a SYSGEN of OS/VS1 using Simon Toffler's well written .pdf document. I'm running the OS under Hercules Hyperion 4.6. However I have an issue with submitting batch JCL. When I submit a job using the card reader (devinit 00c myjcllib/myjob.jcl) I don't get a run of the job. I see it sitting on the 00c card reader device on Hercules. However when I start the reader (sf ,00c) and the printer (sf ,00e), I don't see the job execute in the system console or see any output in the printer file (prt00e.txt) but the job is gone from the card reader. I suspect I am missing something in my start up process (possibly an initiator in partition P00?). Has anyone else experienced this?
Thank you, Ron |

Do you mind sharing with everyone what you were missing. Hank On Thu, Jan 25, 2024 at 2:54?PM Ron Lucas <lucasrb58@...> wrote:

Certainly.? I performed a SYSGEN of OS/VS1 using Mark Waterbury's v1.6.0 distribution files and Simon Toffler's instructions (available on Moshix github OSVS1 repository).? At the end, when I IPLed the system I wasn't able to run any batch jobs.? I would submit them through the card reader use DEVINIT 00C ... on the Hercules console, but nothing would happen.? I realized none of the I/O devices had been started at IPL time so I used STARTF (sf ,00d and ,00e) to start the punch and printer.? I would start the card reader after the first job was loaded on it since the reader is looking to immediately load a job when started.? Still nothing.? Then I determined that there was no initiator running for any partition on the system.? So, I tried starting one in the P00 partition (the same one used for the SYSGEN) but it kept failing.? I then reviewed the job that loads SYS1.PARMLIB during the SYSGEN (g09-parmlib.jcl) and I noticed that the definition of the P0 initiator/partition was different than the others: ./ ADD NAME=DFN01 P0=(C=*,128K) P1=(C=A,3072K) P2=(C=A,3072K) P3=(C=A,3072K) P4=(C=A,3072K,LAST) So I tried starting an initiator in a different partition (P01) using "S INIT.P1" and it worked.? I was able to submit batch jobs and review the output on the "printer". I suspect this is a very long-winded answer to your request, but it was an interesting exercise for me so I tend to go on about it.? Also, I'm very new to the OS/VS1 system so my use of terminology may not be correct. Ron Lucas On 1/25/2024 4:49 PM, ahp2267 wrote:

Thank you for the detailed cause and solution, this is very helpful. Good luck in your quest to become an OS/VS1 Guru. Hank On Fri, Jan 26, 2024 at 7:00?AM Ron Lucas <lucasrb58@...> wrote:
