DETACH 0470 – detach device
ATTACH 0470 3270 – attach terminal
ATTACH 0312 3390 ‘filename’ – dynamically attach disk

XFER

pre-allocate flat-dataset RECFM=FB,LRECL=80,BLKSIZE=3120
XMIT node.id DA(‘dataset‘) OUTDATASET(‘flat-dataset‘)
transfer binary
RECEIVE INDATASET(‘flat-dataset‘)
when asked, type:
DA(‘new-dataset‘)

Add disk

cd /home/tomek/Desktop/Hercules/systems/zOSWORK
dasdinit -bz2 TOMEK1.CCKD.M9.USER.bz2 3390-9 TOMEK1
add unit to config file:
030F 3390 ../systems/zOSWORK/TOMEK1.CCKD.M9.USER.bz2
restart Hercules
oper console:
V 30f,offline
modify …MVS.JCL(DFSINIT) and submit
oper console:
r n,U
v 30f,online
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

cd /home/tomasz/Desktop/Mainframe/systems/zOSWORK
dasdinit -bz2 TOMEK1.CCKD.M9.USER.bz2 3390 TOMEK1
while Hercules is running, on Hercules console type:
attach 313 3390 TOMEK1.CCKD.M9.USER.bz2
modify …MVS.JCL(DFSINIT) and submit
oper console:
r n,U
v 313,online
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

@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

Add spool volume etc

add a disk DMTCAx (see instructions above).
Make sure that the disk is not managed by system (no STORAGEGRP on initialization parms)
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
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)
Enjoy low percentage of spool utilization
