I played with it  on my test system (MVS 3.1) and it  looks like you can't use
what's not there at  IPL time. This is true for CPUs as  well as vectors. Once
the thing is there at IPL you can play all sorts of games.

Subject:      DFHSM Recalls & Batch

DFHSM 2.6 MVS/ESA JES2 4.2.2 DFP 3.3.1
DFHSM does space management on a number of our non-SMS volumes.
A batch job runs which attempts to delete a DSN in the first step via
IEFBR14.  The DSN happens to have been migrated sometime in the past by
DFHSM's space management activities.
There is no console request to mount any ML2 tape, and there is no delay
in the IEFBR14 step which ends RC=0.
(It would appear that the DSN has therefore been deleted.)
A later step attempts to create the DSN anew.  This step abends for one of
two reasons:
   The DSN is still cataloged (but physically is non-existant)
or The DSN is not cataloged (but physically exists).

This phenonema has occured several times with differing job streams, but
the scenario is the same.  The first step attempts to delete a migrated
DSN and ends RC=0 with no console indication that a physical recall has
actually occured.  A later step (may be the next job step) blows because
for some reason it can't create this DSN anew.  No other job stream or
human activity creates these DSN's.  Post abend inspection indicates an
uncataloged DSN or a cataloged DSN with no physical entity.  The obvious
problem is that somehow there is a syncronization problem with DFHSM and
a delete via IEFBR14.  (The IEFBR14 shouldn't really end RC=14 until the
DSN is physically removed and the catalog entry deleted, should it not?)

We have a number of pre-DFHSM job streams that use IEFBR14 and
DISP=(MOD,DELETE,DELETE) to delete old copies of files that are re-created
in the same job stream.  It is unacceptable to rewrite these job streams
to also include a TSO batch step that issued HDELETEs for all these same
DSNs.

I don't have access to IBMLINK (please no discussions about that).  Is
this phenonema a known DFHSM "feature".  Is there a work-around?  (The
same thing used to happen occasionally under DFHSM 2.4 and DFHSM 2.5.
The problem is getting worse now as DFHSM is doing significantly more
in the area of space management than it used to have to do in those
days.)

Any ideas?

Thanks.

Comments: To: ibm-main@ricevm1.bitnet

Can't address all your questions, but at R6 my experience with the
NEWCOPY parm is that if you cross the threshold % set for the warning
message, nothing will 'reset' the condition except performing the
NEWCOPY option. After you have corrected the problem, eg. include
more extents, repro the dataset, or extend it, you should perform
the NEWCOPY to allow DFHSM to display the correct %'s. I don't
remember if we continued to get syslog messages, but I do remember
that a QUERY againsts the CDS's continued to show inaccurate totals
until a NEWCOPY.

Hallo,
  does anybody know how to expand the SYS1.LOGREC data set? The Problem is,
that this data set has to be on the IPL volume and that the data set is
open since IPL time. So i can't scratch the data set and reallocate it with
a greater size. Is there a way to disable error recording for a short 
period of time? We're running MVS/SP V4R2.

I think that you are misinterpreting the MONITOR command parameters.
I believe the proper interpretation to be:
Calculate how much space would be available in
 primary + (extents -1)*secondaries    (primary counts as one extent)!
Calculate %used = 100 * (space_used/space_available)
Issue warning when %used >= thresh, and
  reissue for each 1% increase in %used.
NEWCOPY instructs each copy of DFHSM for which you have issued a
SETSYS to go to the catalog and from it update its (internal memory?)
copy of space available. What I don't know is why there would be
seperate copies, or if there is one copy in the CDS whether the
SETSYS (t e NEWCOPY) needs to done on just one instance of DFHSM.

As an earlier poster guessed, the reason for this is that MVS issues a
"READ SCP INFO" SERVC only during initialization. When you define the
additional CPU with the CP DEF command, subsequent "READ SCP INFO" SERVCs
do in fact show the updated config. However, MVS never expects a change
like this to occur, so it never again issues the "READ SCP INFO". If you
want to give IBM a thrill, open a problem with the support center, go to
level 2, and insist that they APAR it. Good luck.

I suppose it's possible, but why would they?  Why would they not
instead just pay you a good wage?  You're allowed to work 20
hours a week during the school year (ABA rules) and I figure that
plus summer work adds up to about 1100, 1200 hours.  Even the
most expensive school costs less than $20,000 (tuition only, of
course).  So if they paid you $18-$20 an hour (not unheard of in
the large cities for legal clerks; my mom made $16/hr on Wall
Street in 1984) and you did work the max. no. of hours, it would
pay your tuition.

If you can't work that many hours, I don't know.

I would highly recommend Princeton's book, although with some reservations.
There are some lies in it.  But there are also some strategies not contained
in other guides.  When Princeton's advice contradicted the advice of the other
2 or 3 books on the LSAT I bought, I usually went with Princeton's advice and
was glad I did.  It also has a practice test that, unlike the other guides'
tests, is NOT full of maddeningly questionable items that would never appear
on an actual LSAT.

Well, I don't know much about law school (yet - ask me when I'm accepted)
but I have seen ads in the IEEE (the electrical engineering professional
organization student publication) for a few firms looking for engineering
types with experience or a masters, and their ad was quite impressive.  They
pay you well (the ad said ~50+K) gave great benefits, and sent you to law
school (near their manhattan office) at night and paid your full tuition.
Since I'm interested in patent law as well, I thought this might be of
interest to you.  If you like, I'll try to find the issue and informaiton,
assuming I still have it.....

Go for December.  The LSAT has three types of sections.  The logical
reasoning section has short logic problems.  I believe these are the
same as the short logic problems on the GRE, so you won't have any
surprises there.  The analytical reasoning section has more annoying
problems.  These too are, I believe, on the GRE, so again you won't
find any surprises.  The final type of section is the Reading section.
There you will be asked to read short passages (a few paragraphs) and
answer questions about them.  If you can read 200 or 300 words/minute
with reasonable comprehension, there should be no problem here.

You might want to get a hold of some sample LSATs (preferably, actual
tests, or perhaps simulated ones from the LSAT people, although the
simulated tests in test prep books will do) and try these.  You
want to do this because, although the GRE uses the same type of
questions, I believe that the GRE is organized differently, and
so, when you take test organization and time limits into account,
you might find that the LSAT is much harder (or much easier) for
you.  If this is the case, you really want to find this out
before you take the test!

I don't think its worth finding a "sponsor" to pay for your law school
education becuase:
1) you don't want to "limit" your choices upon graduation by
contracting with one employer

2) an engineer-atty is such a valuable combo, IMHO, that you can
shop around for a great offer after graduation

there are plenty of loan sources, or you can go part time
and also work at a firm simultaneously

work for them for a very low budget?

Specifically, in my case, as an Engineer/Systems Administrator,
I have applied to schools for addmision for Fall 93.  Having

Are places only going to be interested in my legal G.P.A., after my

I have interests -- although somewhat dormant until now -- in

of the significant research/thinking in these areas to get
me started? I'm interested in the "classics," seminal work,
heuristic works, . . ..

Of course, I also will check the usual indexes and citators.

1. The effects of degrees of "plain language" in jury instructions
on their impact on the jury.

2. The advantages/disadvantages of the case study method v.
text method in studying law. Here, I am interested in anything
dealing with law school OR undergraduates.

3. Has any research been done on whether students who have
been exposed to the case study method as undergrads do any better or
worse in law school than those who have not been exposed to it as
undergrads.

  - Perhaps law schools generate this kind of data? Publicly accessible?

I'd hate to have only a deconstructionist map when trying to navigate

a peculiar artifact of the Western cultural tradition, and trying to
escape that conceptual contradiction by resorting to subjectivism is no
better than the now much condemned retreat to objectivism.  Surely the
deconstructionists have a point, but taken in an extreem sense leads to
absurdities.  Why endure the pain?  There are well defined and broadly
