Yes, I did fail to mention the version of Hercules I was using. My sincere apologies. Sometimes it is hard to sort through all the documentation to ensure I have the EXACT correct CURRENT information.
?
I am using the SDL-Hercules, a recent build in the 4.7 sequence, but probably not the latest, as it's been a few months since I re-installed.
?
Thank you for the additional pointer and I will update as I have the time, which is quite limited due to family circumstances.

Incorrect.

That is the CTCE reference for the LONG OBSOLETE original (no longer actively maintained) **4.0rc** (Release Candidate) version of Hercules, which was last updated over 7 years ago.

The correct (CURRENT) CTCE reference for the current, actively maintained **4.x** (currently 4.7) version of Hercules (last updated only 4 months ago) is:

I believe Peter Jansen has made some significant changes and fixes to Hercules's original CTCE support over the past 7 years, so you might try configuring your CTCE device(s) using the current 4.7 documentation rather than the now 7-year old obsolete version of the documentation.

Unless, of course, you are actually using the original 4.0rc version of Hercules? (which I hope you are NOT!), since you failed to mention which version of Hercules you were actually using.

Re: Networking a selection of Hercules systems running VM/370rel6

 

Okay,
First, log on to MAINT and check your Real I/O definitions in DMKRIO ASSEMBLE.?
If you are running VM/370 CE you will find it on the G minidisk after you enter
the command:
?
vmsetup cp
?
You should see the following definitions, which means you can have up to 16 CTCT.
The problem with this is we want CTCE to be able to use XNET and NJE.

This means we have to rebuild the CP nucleus.
?
We will also need to modify the Hercules configuration file. The reference for
CTCE we need can be found here:
?
?
I have three qemu/KVMs and I'm just getting this started so I only have the
following definitions created in my first VM system.

The version change to 1.4.1 was simply to denote the difference between this version with its updated documentation versus the parts and pieces that are in VM/CE.? Again, 1.4.0 and 1.4.1 are functionally identical.

Copy SYSPROF EE from the Y-Disk (MAINT 19E MNT19E 19E Y/S R/O) to your A-Disk and modify that copy as desired.
My copy on CMSUSER's A-Disk:
subcom ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ??

ftdefaults h ? ? ? ?V 80 M ? ? ? ??

fttabdefaults assemble 10 16 31 72?
ftdefaults pli ? ? ?F 80 U 72 ? ? ?

The SUBCOM command is absolutely necessary in this preview, otherwise EE subcommands from REXX do not work and the macro is useless. The subcommand environment is currently named "XEDIT" but this will change to "EE" in the future.

This is a known limitation during development/debugging. You quit this EE preview by "CC", which will switch to any modified/unsaved user file. Use "CCCC" to quit quickly if you do not care about unsaved files.

'CMS command executed -> RC = 437' is exactly what? cms exec MINIMAL 437 /cur? shall do, this is pure REXX and no EE subcommands are involved. As long as the SUBCOM command is not in SYSPROF EE A line 1, the EE subcommands in the macro (BOTTOM, INPUT, TOP, LOCATE, EXTRACT) cannot work.

Re: #VMCE #rexx EE goes XEDIT - compiling a wish list #VMCE #rexx

Hi Martin,

is SUBCOM the only line that goes into SYSPROF EE ? Is that on mecaff's A disk or my A disk?

I saved MINIMAL EXEC with 'file'.

After that, I cannot QQUIT because 'Cannot close internal file HISTORY/DEFAULT/TABS/MACROS'

Sometimes I see another internal file from the ring.?

After I quit with 'CCCC' ?I see:

Non-zero return code issued#(RC=1) ? ? ? ??
WARNING: MEMORY FREED (40 BYTES LEAKED) ? ?

In the instructions, your advice to save the old modules can go, I think: these are on Y2 and will stay put there.

When running the exec in the way you indicate, I see a red line with 'CMS command executed -> RC = 437',
but no apparent change in the data on the screen.

Re: XNET v1.4.1

 

Hi Gregg,
?
All of the information you need to set up XNET and the CTC device(s) (both in VM/370 and in Hercules) are in the documentation, including examples.
?
Also, you can set up two XNET servers on the same system (in two different userids) and connect them with a virtual CTCA.?? While this does not serve any practical purpose, it does allow one to get a feel for it and see that it is working, and validate that they set up the configuration correctly.? I'd recommend something like this before trying to connect with a separate host computer running Hercules+VM/370.

I'll try to give you some instructions in small pieces:
?
1) Download, Transfer und Unpack
?
?b) do a binary transfer to a writable CMS minidisk, specify RECFM F and LRECL 80 (ASCII/EBCDIC conversion not applicable here)
????? Example: ? IND$FILE PUT EE181307 VMARC (recfm f lrecl 80)
?c) you should be able to list and unpack the archive
vmarc list ? EE181307 VMARC ? ?A1 ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ?
EE$D ? ? MODULE ? A1. Bytes in= ?176320, bytes out= ? ? ? 0 ( ? ? 0%).?
EE$S ? ? MODULE ? A1. Bytes in= ?176400, bytes out= ? ? ? 0 ( ? ? 0%).?
Ready; T=0.47/0.56 08:55:27 ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ?
vmarc unpack EE181307 VMARC ? ?A1 ( replace ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ?
EE$D ? ? MODULE ? A1. Bytes in= ?176320, bytes out= ?359508 ( ? 203%).?
EE$S ? ? MODULE ? A1. Bytes in= ?176400, bytes out= ?359508 ( ? 203%).?
Ready; T=0.60/0.74 08:55:46 ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ?
?
?d) you might want to rename these files to keep access to your systems's standard installation of EE
?
Please tell me when you have come so far.
?
The version should be displayed as? ee? V1.3.0_221118-1307?
?
In case of emergency, enter the ====> CCCC? command to quit all files without saving.

I'll need a long hot shower first and will type some release notes later.

OT: SDFVM access

 

The VM/SP image now running at SDF has moved to planet.sdf.org port 24.
?
Also, for getting permanent accounts on SDFVM:
?
For non-account holders guest access for all systems is available with new [permanent] account requests available to our supporting Bootstrap members. Support for the SDF Vintage Systems program can be made through https://sdf.org/icf under the 'donate' link.
I had no input to this policy.? (I found out with the rest of SDF world).

Re: XNET v1.4.1

 

Hello!
That's what I wanted Bob. Great! Now what happens after I've got
Hercules running on a Pi3, and the OS is that copy of VM. What next?
We'd to know how to configure the configure file further to support
it. And of course logging into the release to start things and enable
things.

I've uploaded XNET version 1.4.1 to the files section. This upload includes the full XNET package including the latest documentation.

The version change to 1.4.1 was simply to denote the difference between this version with its updated documentation versus the parts and pieces that are in VM/CE. Again, 1.4.0 and 1.4.1 are functionally identical.

The materials are now in the Files section of this group, named "xnetv141.zip".

From the XNET documentation intro:

XNET connects together two or more S/370-based VM systems for the purposes of allowing remote logon. XNET allows 3270 terminal users to log on to userids on other similar VM system(s) that are currently online to XNET. Likewise, a user on one of the other VM system(s) would be able to log on to a userid on your system. You still retain access control for your own systems via the system directory and passwords.



XNET provides the management and transport of 3270 data between systems in order to facilitate remote logons and connections to other VM systems. XNET can support multiple users and multiple systems, and supports two types of data transport mechanisms. XNET is a fully asynchronous mini-operating system that runs in a virtual machine.

Bob

Dave,

When you get a chance, could you delete the old XNETV120.ZIP file in files section (it is under your name from when you copied everything over from Yahoo Groups), and I will upload the? XNET 1.4.0 package and documentation to the files section.

?
