%free of all the storage group by batch

[samb01]

Heelo,

i'd like to know how getting the % of free space in all the storage group . I can't find the option of dcollect to know it.

Thank's for your help.

One way would be to summarize the DCVFRESP and DCVVLCAP values for each volume (V records) in the storage group; once totaled the division gives you % free space.

Hello, thank's for your help.
I'm looking a documentation about TSO MXI by batch but i can't : PGM=MXI
Do you have e link about it ?

Thank's.

MXI is not an IBM product. Try http://www.rocketsoftware.com/products/rocket-mainstar/rocket-mainstar-mxi-zos for more information -- Rocket bought MXI a while back.

MXI at Rocketsoftware is the commercial product. You can find the old, but still mostly functional, freeware version here: http://www.cbttape.org/cbtdowns.htm as files 409 and 410. I just checked that the SMS Storgrp display still works in z/OS 2.3.
MXI is one of the best products I have come across. Well layed out displays and a very good REXX API, which can be used in batch. Unfortunately I could not convince my latest employer to buy the commercial version.

Hello, thank's for thee link.
Could you pleause explain me haw can i read the file in the zipe file. I tied with NotePad ++ but i can't read the file.
I would like to have example in jcl batch like this (for example) it displays all the storagegroup :

Code: Select all

//MXI01 EXEC PGM=MXI,PARM='BATCH'              
//SYSPRINT DD *
//SYSIN DD *                                  
  SGRP *                                      
/*

Newer Windows versions can open a zip file directly. Then you can use drag-and-drop to copy the data file i.e. FILE410.XMI to another directory. Alternatively install an un-zipper, i.e. WINZIP or 7-ZIP. Once you have the unzipped *.XMI file, it can be transferred to your z/OS using whatever file transfer you have available. The transfer must be binary and the target dataset must be FB,lrecl=80 and blkzise=3120. I think that the blksize may be larger, but I would stick with 3120.
Then use the TSO RECEIVE command to generate a library - i.e ISPF 3.4, line command RECEIVE INDA(/) , then reply with the target libraryname.

Hello,

when i transfet the file, i have an echec in the tranfert but i have the file in ZOS.
Then, i enter : RECEIVE INDA(/) in ISPF in front of the dsname XW40.MXI.FILE410
:

Code: Select all

receive inda(/) I.FILE410      
 

Then i have this message :

Code: Select all

INMR901I Dataset CBT.V495.FILE410.PDS from SBGOLOB on N1  
INMR906A Enter restore parameters or 'DELETE' or 'END' +  
 

So i enter the library :

Code: Select all

xw4040.mxi.jcllib.file410
 

and i have this message :

Code: Select all

IKJ56712I INVALID KEYWORD, UT40.MXI.JCLLIB.FILE410
 

So what can i do please? I did something wrong ?

[samb01]

Hello,

now i have this message :

Code: Select all

 INMR901I Dataset CBT.V495.FILE410.PDS from SBGOLOB on N1        
 INMR906A Enter restore parameters or 'DELETE' or 'END' +        
da('XW40.MXI.FILE410.jcllib') unit(tso)                          
 INMR108I RECEIVE command terminated.  Trailer record missing    
 ***                                                            

 

and my library : XW0.MXI.FILE410.JCLLIB is empty

I think there's a problem in my transfert :

[willy jensen]

Did you preallocate the transfer dataset in z/OS (you should)? What are the specs for that dataset?
After transfer, browse the dataset, it must start with '&\INMR01' and end with '\INMR06 '.
