Ron, AFAIK, you are correct regarding a virtual CTC, but you can still define a real FICON CTC - I think I'm correct in saying you just need one spare FICON port, unlike ESCON, where you needed two, and a cable between them. Assuming nothing has changed on the mainframe, and you are running JES2

FTP/Server backup for CEC critical data

We are going to start using the FTP/Server backup option for HMC/CEC critical data backups, get away from the USB sticks in the HMC currently in use. If you've already done this, would you share how big the backup's are, for sizing the storage. has anyone tried using OMVS/zOS for this ? any go

I used Windows PC with Filezilla server (FTP and FTPS options). The size is AFAIR ~1GB for HMC and ~4GB for CPC. It does not grow, new versions replace old ones. So, assign 8GB and forget. BTW: using z/OS for that should be re-thought. Reason: you create backup of critical data on system which

Vince, Thanks for letting me know about using a FICON CTC...the problem was when we ordered the z13s we didn't order enough FICON adapters...guess our research was not through enough. As far as where the problem actually is...I believe it is the network to but I'm losing that battle and it is

We are testing z/OS Network Print Facility and have hit a snag that I expect should be an option, but I can't find it in the doc. When the z/OS print is converted to ASCII, the carriage controls for 'next line' are being converted to x'0A' (Line Feed) but the printer is expecting x'0D0A' (Carr

z/OS LPR is strictly following the standard (IETF RFC 1179), which calls for using x'0A' (line feed) rather than x'0D0A' (carriage return, line feed). Hurray, standards. :-) There are a couple easy solutions often available: 1. If you're printing to a Hewlett-Packard LaserJet printer, or similar,
