XFER

    1. pre-allocate flat-dataset RECFM=FB,LRECL=80,BLKSIZE=3120
    2. XMIT node.id DA('dataset') OUTDATASET('flat-dataset')
    3. transfer binary
    4. RECEIVE INDATASET('flat-dataset')
    5. when asked, type:

Directory

cd /home/tomek/Desktop/Hercules/emulate

Add disk

  1. cd /home/tomek/Desktop/Hercules/systems/zOSWORK
  2. dasdinit -bz2 TOMEK1.CCKD.M9.USER.bz2 3390-9 TOMEK1
  3. add unit to config file:
    030F 3390 ../systems/zOSWORK/TOMEK1.CCKD.M9.USER.bz2
  4.  restart Hercules
  5. oper console:
    V 30f,offline
  6. modify ...MVS.JCL(DFSINIT) and submit
  7. oper console:
    r n,U
    v 30f,online
  8. do something so that the disk belongs to a storage group to ensure one can allocate datasets on it - not sure how to do it (yet)

Dynamically add disk

  1. cd /home/tomasz/Desktop/Mainframe/systems/zOSWORK
  2. dasdinit -bz2 TOMEK1.CCKD.M9.USER.bz2 3390 TOMEK1
  3. while Hercules is running, on Hercules console type:
    attach 313 3390 TOMEK1.CCKD.M9.USER.bz2
  4. modify ...MVS.JCL(DFSINIT) and submit
  5. oper console:
    r n,U
    v 313,online
  6. add unit to config file to be used when Hercules is restarted next time:
    0313 3390 ../systems/zOSWORK/TOMEK1.CCKD.M9.USER.bz2

Network Setup (?)

  • V TCPIP,,STOP,CTCDEV1
  • V TCPIP,,OBEYFILE,DSN=[...].PARMLIB(D530A)
  • V TCPIP,,START,CTCDEV2

I have no idea whether/why I have to do it.

DB2

login as DBAUSER

@STA DB2 - oper console - start DB2
DSN SYSTEM(DSNA) - ISPF option 6
P;B;1 - admin tools
P;B;Q - QMF

CICS

S CICSTOR1 - oper - start CICS (TOR)
S CICSAOR1 - oper - start CICS (AOR)

Transactions

CRTE SYSID=C22A - route to AOR
CRTE SYSID=C21T - route to TOR
CEMT P SHUT

MQ

MQM1 START QMGR
S NVAS - start NetView Access Services

Spool Setup

  1. add a disk DMTCAx (see instructions above).
    Make sure that the disk is not managed by system (no STORAGEGRP on initialization parms)
  2. create DSN=SYS1.HASPACE,DISP=(NEW,KEEP),UNIT=3390,VOL=SER=DMTCAx,SPACE=(CYL,(3000),,CONTIG)
    1. SYS1.HASPACE is not going to be cataloged
  3. On oper console:
    1. $D SPL
    2. $S SPL(DMTCAx)
    3. After SYS1.HASPACE is formated by the system:
      $D SPL
    4. $T SPOOLDEF,TGSPACE=(MAX=30000)
  4. Enjoy low percentage of spool utilization
