Sernet 8.1.1

• IPV6 provides support for 128-bit IP addresses and 253-byte DNS names
• External representation of 128-bit address requires up to 39 characters
• SER#PARM is a registry of started tasks and their TCP/IP contact information; prior to 8.1.1:
• Only provides 15 characters for either the IP address or the DNS name
• Dataset format is F/80 (can not provide for a DNS name > 52 characters in length)
• SER#PARM in 8.1.1
• New member format to cater for DNS names up to 52 characters
• Automatic update to new member format when STC initializes
• If DNS name > 52 characters warning message is issued and IP address is adopted
• If DNS name > 52 characters is a requirement:
• SER#PARM must be manually changed to RECFM=V,LRECL=281
• DNS name may be up to 253 bytes
• BEWARE – if SER#PARM is changed to RECFM=V then all STCs MUST be running 8.1.1

• Old format of SER#PARM members:
* SMFI.SUBS APP DOT.TED.DEC.MAL PORT# TCPIPROC --Update-Time-Stamp—
D001.SERU XCH 10.35.11.101 06414 2015/01/12 - 13:32:41
• New format of SER#PARM members:
* SMFI S APP TCPIPROC PORT# ADDR
D001 U XCH 06414 D001
• No other changes of any kind are required for IPV6 support

• Automatic Restart Management (ARM) is one of the z/OS Sysplex Services
• ARM provides for the automatic restarting of registered elements. Two types of restart:
• ‘Local’ – deals with a failing job
• ‘Cross-system’ – deals with a failing LPAR
• New SERSYSIN parameter of ARM=YES|NO (where ARM=NO is the default)
• NB: ARM can be disabled by the z/OS sysprog so setting ARM=YES may not work
SerNet 8.1.1 Support for ARM

20. 22
• Local restarts are simple
• Cross-system restarts are not so simple. Serena recommends that you:
• Identify which STCs you want to protect
• Identify where each will be restarted in the case of an LPAR failure
• Code an ARM policy specifying a TARGET_SYSTEM (single alternate LPAR) or TARGET_LIST (multiple alternates)
• Ensure the ARM policy is active (SETXCF START command)
• TEST !
• Some considerations for cross-system restarts:
• Same JCL or START command will be used for the restart
• All required datasets must be available on the restart LPAR
• JES may be configured differently between LPARs so be careful with proclibs
• System symbols used will be those of the failing LPAR, not the restart LPAR
• Serena products will need to be licensed to run on the restart LPAR
• TCP/IP definitions will need to be consistent

HLLX Approve/Reject

23. 25
One of the requests relating to the new Approve/Reject HLL exit was to present
error (warning) messages to a user regarding potential errors in the package,
but allow the user to ignore the warnings and continue, or cancel the approval
and request that the problems are fixed beforehand.
This demonstration shows a way of achieving this
Using the new VPOOL facility available in the High Level exits to store the
package number and referring to it before issuing the error message to see if
this user has already attempted to approve the package beforehand.
Once the message has been issued, store the new package number to signal
that the warning message has been issued.
