However, the reader should have a basic understanding of I BM data processing. VM/370 (Virtual Machine Facility/370) is a system control program (SCP) that tailors the resources and capabilities of a single System/370 computer to provide concurrent users their one unique (virtual) machine. VM/370 consists of a Control Program (CP), which manages the real computer, a Conversational Monitor System (CMS), which is a general-purpose conversational time-sharing system that executes in a virtual machine, a Remote Spooling Communications Subsystem (RSCS), which spools files to and from geographically remote locations, and a Interactive Problem Control System (I PCS), which provides problem analysis and management faci I ities. The first section of the publication is an introduction; it describes what VM/370 can do. The second, third, fourth, and fifth sections describe the Control Program, Conversational Monitor System, Remote Spooling Communications Subsystem, and Interactive Problem Control System respectively. The appendixes include information about VM/370 publication-to-audience relationship and VM/370-related publications for CMS users. , This publication is a prerequisite for the VM/370 system library. --...- --- ---.-- ------- ------ --..- --------- -~-y- Page of GC20-1800-9 As Updated Aug 1, 1979 by TNL GN25-0U89 ~b Edition (Karch 1919) This edition (GC20-1800-~ together with Technical Newsletter GN25-0489. dated August 1, 1919, applies to Release 6 PLC 4 (Program Level Change) of IBM Virtual Machine Facility/310 and to all subsequent releases until otherwise indicated in new editions or Technical Newsletters.

  • Introduction-To-Mainframes.Pdf
    Mainframe The term ‘MainFrame’ brings to mind a giant room of electronic parts that is a computer, referring to the original CPU cabinet in a computer of the mid-1960’s. Today, Mainframe refers to a class of ultra-reliable large and medium-scale servers designed for carrier-class and enterprise-class systems operations. Mainframes are costly, due to the support of symmetric multiprocessing (SMP) and dozens of central processors existing within in a single system. Mainframes are highly scalable. Through the addition of clusters, high-speed caches and volumes of memory, they connect to terabyte holding data subsystems. Mainframe computer Mainframe is a very large and expensive computer capable of supporting hundreds, or even thousands, of users simultaneously. In the hierarchy that starts with a simple microprocessor at the bottom and moves to supercomputers at the top, mainframes are just below supercomputers. In some ways, mainframes are more powerful than supercomputers because they support more simultaneous programs. But supercomputers can execute a single program faster than a mainframe. The distinction between small mainframes and minicomputers is vague, depending really on how the manufacturer wants to market its machines. Modern mainframe computers have abilities not so much defined by their single task computational speed (usually defined as MIPS — Millions of Instructions Per Second) as by their redundant internal engineering and resulting high reliability and security, extensive input-output facilities, strict backward compatibility with older software, and high utilization rates to support massive throughput. These machines often run for years without interruption, with repairs and hardware upgrades taking place during normal operation.

    Honesty | Loyalty | Integrity | Quality z/VSE to z/OS Migration Experience From a z/VSE Bigot’s Perspective Tony Thigpen – Senior System Programmer Agenda . Customer Background . Methods . Source Conversion . JCL Conversion . Utility Conversion . Operations Conversion . Data Conversion . Training . Issues that were discovered sooner or later . Discussion . Wrap Up Customer Background . Manufacturer located in Mississippi and North Carolina . Initial Configuration: o Z9 in MS running 4 z/OS LPARs (mix of 1.4 and 1.7) – 160mips o Z10 is NC running 5 VSE/ESA LPARs (1.5) – 70mips o Multiple AS/400s in different locations . First major changes o Both CPUs and some AS/400s were relocated to PZG facilities in FL . Second major changes o 3 of the VSE LPARs were slowly migrated off-platform o 2 VSE LPAR was merged into 1 VSE LPAR o All but one of the AS/400s located in FL were eliminated o All z/OS LPARs upgraded to 1.12 to allow them to run on a Z10 . Resulting Configuration: o Z9 in FL running 4 z/OS LPARs (all 1.12) – 150mips o Z10 in FL running 1 VSE/ESA LPAR (1.5) – 70mips Customer Background . Customer goal to cut costs o An os for each machine from IBM ($$) o Adabas for each machine ($$$) o Similar Third-party software on both machines ($$$) o Maintenance, floor space, HVAC costs ($$) o Operations (staff) costs ($) . Customer was concerned with older VSE/ESA o Out of Service o CICS/VS – CICS/TS conversion . The decision was to take the money budgeted for upgrading the VSE and use it instead to migrate the one remaining VSE LPAR to z/OS o Unpopular with VSE programmers but there were only 3 left.
