>> you forget to update the ROBTY and VENDOR fields
I never update those fields.
I just insert new volumes as scratch and the library takes care of
everything.
Unless it's handled by the INSERT exit?

Hi Alex. I am retired, and haven't worked with mainframes for a long time.
However I own several 3174s and 3270 compatible terminals
(If any in Europe has a spare IBM 3270 it would be nice to have a copy)

Oh wow, that's remarkable.
Shopping for the components to build such an interface already.
It's every rather simple to do!
I am not considering the 3174 idea anymore and will just try to make
this work.

I am doing planning for the encryption of application data. I have a need to
encrypt some fairly large numbers of VSAM datasets.
I am trying to develop some tooling to help with the allocation and encryption
of the VSAM data sets. I need to define replacement data sets which are
extended format
For IDCAMS DEFINE I added DATACLAS(extended dataclas name)
For JCL and PROCs I added DATACLAS(...) as well
If DATACLAS was already specified I just changed the name to an extended format

Don’t get me wrong. You can change the members but you still need to test and
promote.

Cameron,
Sadly I have no dataclas with extended specified and I do not want to have to
produce more dataclas specifications at the moment.
When you say " We have seen some issues with XCOM, SYNCSORT, FILEAID and ISPW"
could you be more specific please?
Thanks,

Lenny,
I can't recall the issue with XCOM.
We run ZPSAVER SYNCSORT. This does not work with EF files, so the sorting
falls back to BSAM I believe, and there is a corresponding increase in MIPs.
We installed ZPSAVER to save MIPS and EF files throw these savings away. We
are talking to SYNCSORT folks

I don't have it as an option on any ISPF menu. Documentation states I can use

Well, if we're gonna talk PCMs, let's not forget Formation!
Actually, OK, let's forget Formation. The Formation 4000 we had was . not a

eventually turned out) it had somehow decided that the 64KB chips in its memo

Launches in a new window
YMMV

Just write and invoke a simple exec (or clist if that's your thing):
/* REXX */
ADDRESS ISPEXEC
'SELECT PGM(DGTFMD01) NEWAPPL(DGT) SCRNAME(ISMF)'
EXIT
You could also invoke it from option 7.1 (Dialog Test), but that adds some
overhead.

An ISPF application needs to have all related data sets allocated before the
application itself starts running. For the 'PDF' application, folks will have
all necessary ISPxLIBs allocated by logon proc or by some front-end REXX. In
our shop, applications like ISMF are considered specialized util
This works. Thanks much.

Brian and Dean,
Yes, you are correct. If you insert or define a new range of virtual-volumes to
the VTS; that will drive the CBRUXENT (ENTRY) exit. If you have the CA 1
version active, that will set the ROBTY field correctly as well as telling OAM
the status of the volume (active/private or sc
*MY* ISMF exec looks very much like JO Skip's. But your success with the
ISPSTART invocation indicated you didn't need the LIBDEFs and ALTLIBs.

And even simpler, add it's and select cmd options to your ispf command
table. This way you can type a short name to invoke it.
