15 Chapter 1. Ealuating, planning, and installing DFSMSts This topic proides information to help you ealuate, plan for, and install DFSMSts. Ealuating and planning for DFSMSts This topic proides information to help you ealuate your installation's readiness to use DFSMSts and to help you plan for using it. Software dependencies The following software is required for DFSMSts, which is a licensed feature of z/os Version 1 Release 4 or aboe. z/os DFSMSts is aailable on z/os Version 1 Release 4 or aboe. Use of DFSMSts requires serices that the system logger and recoerable resource management serices (RRMS) proide. The system logger and RRMS were shipped in earlier releases of z/os. DFSMS DFSMSts requires the DFSMS component of z/os Version 1 Release 4 or aboe. Changes to the lock information stored in the coupling facility for DFSMSts require compatibility PTFs for any DFSMS 1.3 systems that might be running VSAM record-leel sharing (VSAM RLS) in a sysplex where DFSMSts is also used. New IDCAMS SHCDS commands that are routed to all of the systems in the sysplex require a compatibility PTF to any sharing DFSMS 1.3 systems to handle these commands correctly. CICS Transaction Serer To exploit the functions that VSAM RLS proides, you need CICS Transaction Serer (CICS TS) Version 1 Release 1 or later, which proides these features: VSAM RLS support, enabling CICS systems to share the VSAM data sets directly rather than function shipping to a file owning region Application programming interface (API) extensions for VSAM RLS The CICS TS log manager The CICS TS recoery manager If you are running DFSMSts and CICS TS, a compatibility PTF is required for CICS TS because DFSMSts support requires some changes to the VSAM problem determination information used to report locking conflicts. The problem determination information is used by both DFSMSts and CICS TS. CICS VSAM Recoery DFSMSts supports the data set forward recoery option introduced into VSAM cluster definitions by VSAM RLS. DFSMSts logs the redo records to system logger log streams. These log streams are shared across all DFSMSts instances and CICS systems. This proides sysplex-wide, merged log streams, which you can use as Copyright IBM Corp. 2003,

16 Ealuating, planning, and installing DFSMSts input to CICS VSAM Recoery (CICSVR) or other forward recoery products. To enable these products to process DFSMSts forward recoery log records with minimal changes, the log records were designed to be as similar to those written by CICS as possible. CICSVR ersion 2 release 3 or higher is needed. Global Resource Serialization Global Resource Serialization (GRS) or an equialent product is required to ensure cross-system serialization of VSAM resources and other DFSMS control structures altered by DFSMSts and VSAM RLS. z/os Security Serer You need Resource Access Control Facility (RACF ), a component of z/os Security Serer 2.1, or an equialent product to proide authorization for and protection of data and system resources: An RACF FACILITY class profile, STGADMIN.IGWSHCDS.REPAIR, controls access to the IDCAMS SHCDS command functions, which you can use to list outstanding SMSVSAM recoery requirements and control that recoery. If you do not use RACF to secure your installation, ensure that your security product supports the new class name and the new FACILITY class profile. The SMSVSAM address space must be gien authority to use the system logger log streams. To allow DFSMSts to do automated BACKOUT and RETRY recoery for transactions, the region must be PRIVILEGED or TRUSTED, or the SMSVSAM address space must be part of a class that has UPDATE access to the data sets to be recoered. If you use RACF as your external security manager, you need a minimum of RACF Version 2 Release 1 ( ) and PTFs to proide the required support for the LOGSTRM general resource class and to enable general resource class profile names for journals to be up to 17 characters long. IMS If a batch job uses both VSAM data sets and IMS databases, IMS ersion 6 or higher is needed so that IMS uses the MVS RRS serices. This will allow two-phase commit to be done for both VSAM and IMS requests in the batch job. DB2 If a batch job is to use both VSAM data sets and DB2 tables, DB2 ersion 5 or higher is needed so that DB2 will use MVS RRS serices. This makes use of the DB2 Recoerable Resource Serices Attachment Facility, RRSAF. Language products Runtime library support for COBOL, PL/I and C is proided by the Language Enironment (LE) component of z/os. VSAM RLS support was originally proided in LE ersion 1 release 5. Because LE is part of the z/os base elements, it now has the same ersion and release number as the leel of z/os with which it is shipped. Language Enironment: Conforming with DFSMSts restrictions Handling new VSAM error codes, as necessary LE includes the following support for DFSMSts: For languages that support dynamic allocation, including facilities in the language to specify the CRE read integrity option 2 z/os DFSMSts Administration Guide

17 Ealuating, planning, and installing DFSMSts Externalizing the TIMEOUT alue in the RPL to enable lock requests to time out if they cannot be satisfied within the time specified The key item for support of DFSMSts is the libraries used, not the compiler. So, while VS/COBOL II programs will work if they use the correct Language Enironment libraries, they will not work with the VS COBOL II libraries. Both COBOL and C hae the ability to create self-contained load modules. At a minimum, relinking such programs is required for them to use the DFSMSts support in LE. Programming languages and enironments: You can use these programming languages and enironments with DFSMSts: High-Leel Assembler/MVS ( ) IBM COBOL for z/os ersion 2 (5648-A25) IBM COBOL for MVS ersion 1 ( ) Restricted OS/VS COBOL language statements that result in a call to MVS GETMAIN serices worked on earlier releases. Now, a COBOL erb that results in an MVS GETMAIN will cause an 0C4 abend. In these cases, it is not the application program itself that appears to cause the 0C4. The end-of-serice date for this compiler was 12/31/2001. VS/COBOL II ( and ). No support is proided for NORES programs (CICS or batch). The Language Enironment libraries must be used. VS/COBOL II went out of serice in March C/370 Version 1, Release 2 or later ( ) IBM C/C++ for MVS/ESA Version 3, Release 1 or later ( ) VisualAge PL/I for z/os (5655-B22) IBM PL/I for MVS ersion 1 ( ) OS PL/I Optimizing Compiler Version 2, Release 1 or later ( ) OS PL/I Optimizing Compiler Version 1, Release 5.1 or later (5734-PL1) CICS also supports IBM SAA AD/Cycle Language Enironment/370 Version 1, Release 1 and Release 2 runtime enironment ( ) with the following COBOL, C/370, and PL/I SAA AD/Cycle compilers: SAA AD/Cycle COBOL/370 ( ) SAA AD/Cycle C/370 ( ) SAA AD/Cycle PL/I ( ) Processing restrictions The following restrictions apply to DFSMSts processing: VSAM RLS and DFSMSts do not support these features: Linear data sets Control interal access (CNV) for any data set organization. Addressed access to a KSDS Access to key range data sets Access to clusters with the IMBED attribute Access to temporary data sets Access using the ISAM compatibility interface Open of the indiidual components of a cluster Direct open of an alternate index Chapter 1.

Migrating to z/os Version 1 Release 4 This topic proides information that you need to consider before migrating your z/os system to use DFSMSts and describes migration tasks. For more information on migrating DFSMS to z/os Version 1 Release 4, see z/os Migration. DFSMSts enables you to run batch VSAM processing concurrently with CICS online transactions. You can run multiple batch jobs and online transactions against the same VSAM data, in data sets defined as recoerable, with concurrent updates. DFSMSts offers these features: Concurrent shared update of VSAM recoerable data sets across CICS transactions and batch applications Ability to run multiple batch jobs concurrently instead of serially Logging, commit, and backout functions 24 x 7 CICS Transaction Serer (TS) applications Data sharing across CICS TS applications, batch applications, and local or distributed object-oriented (OO) applications Building on the functionality of VSAM RLS, DFSMSts proides transactional capability within the file system. If a batch job fails during concurrent shared updates of recoerable VSAM data sets, DFSMSts proides the serices to back out any changes that the batch job made automatically, restoring the data to the state it was in at the last synchronization point (commit or back out). You can use DFSMSts in two major areas: Transactional processing proides data sharing for recoerable resources. Transactional processing ensures that the data is kept in sync while multiple parties update the data and ensures data integrity in the eent of a job or system failure. Products such as CICS, IMS, and DB2 proide a transactional enironment. Transactional recoery isolates the changes made to recoerable resources into logical units of work that are recoerable. When a transaction makes a change, 4 z/os DFSMSts Administration Guide

19 Ealuating, planning, and installing DFSMSts only that transaction can update the changed data. After DFSMSts commits the transaction, all data associated with that logical unit of work is aailable to other transactions for update. DFSMSts also supports forward recoery logging for data sets that are defined as forward recoerable (the LOG parameter alue is ALL). If data is lost or damaged, you can restore it from a backup, and you can use a forward recoery utility such as CICS VSAM Recoery (CICSVR) to reapply changes that were made since the last backup. CICSVR automates the recoery of lost or damaged VSAM data sets. It determines what CICS journals and VSAM backups are needed, and it constructs the recoery jobs. CICSVR proides automated complete recoery, forward recoery, and backout functions. CICSVR VSAM batch logging is aailable with CICS VSAM Recoery V3R1. For more information about CICSVR, see CICS Transaction Serer for z/os ( Implementing DFSMSts could affect the following areas of your processing enironment.

This table lists new and changed executable macros. Macro name Release Description Related support ACB z/os V1R4 or aboe Changed macro: CTRLACB= Specifies whether the opened ACB is to be used as a control ACB. For applications using DFSMSts, the alue of this parameter should not be YES. Changed macro: MACRF= The RLS subparameter enables DFSMSts access to a VSAM data set, as well as RLS access. VSAM uses cross-system record-leel locking as opposed to CI locking, uses the CF for buffer consistency, and manages a system-wide local cache. DFSMSts access requires the NUB subparameter, which specifies that management of I/O buffers is left up to VSAM. DFSMSts does not support ADR access to a KSDS. DFSMSts ignores the CFX subparameter and assumes that the NFX subparameter is in effect. For DFSMSts, the NRM subparameter does not allow the direct open of an alternate index. DFSMSts does not affect key processing, which the KEY subparameter specifies. The AIX, CNV, ICI, UBF subparameters are inalid for DFSMSts. DFSMSts ignores the DDN, DFR, DSN, LEW, NDF, NLW subparameters. Changed macro: RLSREAD= For DFSMSts access, the new CRE keyword specifies consistent read explicit so that an application can inhibit update or erase of a record by other transactions or applications until commit or backout. CRE can be specified only with MACRF=RLS. Changed macro: RMODE31= If MACRF=RLS is specified, RMODE31=ALL is assumed. For RLS and DFSMSts, VSAM control blocks and buffers are located in a data space owned by the SMSVSAM serer address space and are not directly addressable. DFSMSts ignores the MAREA parameter.

Migration tasks You need to consider each migration task in the following list to implement this change. Required tasks apply to any DFSMS installation enabling the function. Optional tasks apply to only specified operating enironments or to situations where there is more than one way to set up or enable the function. For more details on the procedures associated with a gien task, see the procedure reference (column 3). 14 z/os DFSMSts Administration Guide

29 Ealuating, planning, and installing DFSMSts This table lists migration tasks. System-leel tasks Condition Procedure reference Update the IGDSMSxx member of SYS1.PARMLIB with DFSMSts parameters Define resources for DFSMSts: Create the coupling facility structures for storing log stream data Define the maximum number of log streams for each structure Create the log stream definitions that DFSMSts needs for its system logs Define staging data sets Authorize access to system log streams Ensure that at least two actie data sets and one spare, sharing control data set are always placed for maximum aailability Required Required z/os MVS Initialization and Tuning Reference z/os DFSMSts Planning and Operating Guide This table lists migration tasks. Application-leel tasks Condition Procedure reference For DFSMSts applications that use COBOL, PL/I, and C/370 runtime libraries, ensure that the following conditions apply: The application can use DFSMSts. Ensure that the application functions correctly in a multiple-update enironment before you specify DFSMSts access. COBOL, PL/I, and C/370 support DD-based allocation, in which case you can use the JCL RLS parameter to specify the read integrity option. The recoerable data set is open for DFSMSts access if its catalog entry specifies that logging is requested and if either CRE is requested or the data set is open for output. If you use DD allocation, you might not need to recompile the application for DFSMSts. Recommendation: Do some conersion of the application to make use of syncpoint processing. COBOL has the ability to create self-contained load modules.

31 Chapter 2. Administering resources for DFSMSts This topic describes how to set up the resources that you need for using DFSMSts. Controlling access to VSAM data sets You can specify the following options to control DFSMSts access to VSAM data sets: VSAM record-leel sharing (VSAM RLS) Read integrity options Timeout alue for lock requests If a VSAM data set is recoerable, DFSMSts can open the data for input within a transaction. A recoerable VSAM data set is defined with the LOG(UNDO) or LOG(ALL) attribute. For more information about using recoerable VSAM data sets, see z/os DFSMSts Planning and Operating Guide. Accessing data sets in DFSMSts mode This topic describes the use of VSAM data sets for DFSMSts. For more information about VSAM data sets, see z/os DFSMS Using Data Sets. Using VSAM record-leel sharing VSAM record-leel sharing (RLS) is an access option for VSAM data sets. This option proides multisystem sharing of VSAM data sets across a z/os Parallel Sysplex. VSAM RLS exploits the data sharing technology of the coupling facility (CF) including a CF-based lock manager and a CF cache manager. VSAM RLS uses the CF-based lock manager and the CF cache manager in its implementation of record-leel sharing. RLS is a mode of access to VSAM spheres. RLS is not an attribute of a sphere. It is an access option interpreted at open time. The option is selected either by specifying a new JCL parameter (RLS) or by specifying MACRF=RLS in the ACB. The RLS MACRF option is mutually exclusie with the MACRF NSR (nonshared resources), LSR (local shared resources), and GSR (global shared resources) options. This topic uses the term non-rls access to distinguish between RLS access and NSR/LSR/GRS access. Access method serices do not use RLS when performing EXPORT, IMPORT, PRINT or REPRO commands. If the RLS keyword is specified in the DD statement of a data set to be opened by access method serices, the keyword is ignored and the data set is opened and accessed in non-rls mode. See Non-RLS access to VSAM data sets on page 23 for more information about non-rls access. RLS access is supported for KSDS, ESDS, RRDS, and VRRDS data sets. RLS access is supported for VSAM alternate indexes. RLS is not supported for control interal mode access (CNV or ICI) or for UNIX files. The VSAM RLS functions are proided by the SMSVSAM serer. This serer resides in a system address space. The address space is created and the serer is Copyright IBM Corp. 2003,
