Hi,
Other then the sidebar that can pop out after a while,
I can't find a page where the option to change version for example z/OS 2.3 -->
2.4 works, I allways get a message of:
"We didn't find a matching topic in the product version you requested. Would
you like to go to the 2.4.0 homepage?"
but
Thanks. Turned out to be a red herring. Packets are reaching the mid-range
server, passing through the firewall but I think there is no application
(this is an IBMi mid-range box) on the box to act on them so the host
thinks the connection was rejected. I am going to cross-post in the
mid-range mai
Classification: Confidential
Agreed. IBM DOCS (or whatever they call it) is not ready for prime time.
If us z/OS folks did what the IBM DOC folks have beem doing, we'ed be out the
door!

There is a dispute on wikipedia as to the definition of DASD and whether IBM
still uses the term. I'd like references, preferably on the hardware side, for
use of the term on i, p and z. Thanks.

How does Conda not belong here? If it runs on z, then it's on topic.

That is consistent with my impression.
In non-passive (non FW Friendly) mode, counterintuitively the server is
sometimes initiating a connection TO the client. PASV (FWFRIENDLY) mode
eliminates that counterintuitive protocol, and makes things easier relative to

If I were to venture a guess they hand this off to design people (which is

That coupled with the attempt to unify everything with Cloud creates more of a

that IBM's solution to too much back-end processing is to add more

You've provided a nice example of defining a primary volume to HSM and

Vista comes with it's own font (of course you can use another font) I
can't tell you why (I can't argue that), but I tried several fonts and nothing
felt right
Sometimes font A feels right for purpose XYZ but feels wrong for another
purpose... i. e. I would never use the Vista tn3270
I thought that FTP was going aay due to security, with SSH+SFTP replacing it.

correct. The HSM FR support is only for SMS-managed volumes. It is tightly

There's no excuse for not doing this right anymore.
It's not like we're asking IBM to invent something from scratch.
The components are already there for a seamless search experience.
Client-side search with WASM and https://www.meilisearch.com/
First send the whole Docs' index down to the client,
Glink for ios is pretty good (works on ipad and iphone as well) and does
more than just 3270.

Yeah, also we all have to suffer HTTPS intercept in enterprises.
For some reason, enterprises don't even want to consider pushing some part of
this problem client-side, with an enterprise-wide deployment of an established
ad-blocker, uBlock Origin.
That cuts waste traffic out by a huge margin, it
In addition to the other suggestions, IBM's Host On-Demand is the most
functionally rich 3270 emulator on macOS that I know of.
