1.8 Legal Advice

Hercules implements only the raw S/370, ESA/390, and z/Architecture instruction set, it does not provide any operating system facilities. This means that you need to provide an operating system or standalone program which Hercules can load from an emulated disk or tape device. You will have to write the operating system or standalone program yourself unless you possess a license from IBM to run one of their operating systems on your PC or use IBM programs and operating systems which have been placed in the public domain.

3. Hercules Configuration File

3.1 The Configuration File

This chapter describes the configuration file for the Hercules Emulator. By default the configuration file is named “hercules.cnf” or “hercules.conf”. It is located in the configuration directory, refer to the Hercules

Installation Guide for details of the directory structure. The configuration file contains the processor definitions in the system parameters section, the device layout in the device definitions section and Hercules runtime parameters also in the system parameters section.

The configuration file - especially the device definition part - is roughly equivalent to the IOCDS definitions found on a real mainframe environment. It is an ASCII text file that is read and interpreted by the Hercules

Emulator during its initialization phase.

3.2 System Parameters

The system parameters describe the processor definition and some Hercules internal runtime parameters.

The processor definitions include the processor model, CPU serial number, memory configuration and architecture mode. They describe the processor hardware that is to be emulated.

The Hercules runtime parameters define values that Hercules requires as an emulated environment.

These parameters include values like port numbers, directory paths and priorities.

3.4 Coding Rules

There are only a few rules for creating configuration files. The file must be an ASCII text file. Blank lines, or lines beginning with a hash (“#”) sign or an asterisk (“*”), are treated as comments and are not checked.

The system parameters may appear in any order but must precede all device definitions. Each system parameter must be specified on a separate line.

Hercules Emulator V3.09 – User Reference Guide Page 24

The device records may also appear in any order but must follow the system parameters. There must be one device definition for each I/O device or for each group of identical I/O devices.

3.5 Record Format

The following sections describe the format of the Hercules configuration file records. The format is slightly different between system parameters and device definitions.

3.5.1 Format of the system parameters

The record format of the system parameters is as follows:

system-parameter argument

where:

system-parameter is the name of the system parameter.

argument is the value assigned to the system parameter.

Examples:

CPUMODEL 3090

HTTPROOT /usr/local/share/hercules/

PANRATE FAST

3.5.2 Format of the device definitions

The format of device definition is as follows:

devnum(s) devtype [argument(s)]

where:

devnum(s) is either: a single devnum (see details below), a range of devnums separated by a dash (“-“), a count of devnums seperated by a dot (“.”), or a comma (“,”) separated list of devnums.

Examples include:

• 0200-0210

• 0300.10

• 0400,0410

• 0100,0110-011F

Hercules Emulator V3.09 – User Reference Guide Page 25

If devnums specifies more than one device then all devices will have identical characteristics. All devices defined as a group must be defined on a single channel. A channel is defined as a continuous group of

256 (or hexadecimal 100) devices. For example devices 0010 and 0020 are on the same channel, whereas devices 0100 and 0210 are not on the same channel.

The devnum itself is either a 1 to 4 digit hexadecimal number in the range 0000 to FFFF for ESA/390 or

0000 to 0FFF for S/370. The device number uniquely identifies each device to the operating system.

devtype is the device type.

argument(s) is a list of parameters depending on the device type. These parameters are explained in the sections that describe each device type.

Examples:

0120 3380 mvsv5r.120

0230.16 3270 GROUP1 192.168.100.0 255.255.255.0

Hercules Emulator V3.09 – User Reference Guide Page 28

3.7 Symbol Substitution

In configuration and device statements, as well as in console commands and OAT files, symbols may be substituted for text.

3.7.1 Syntax

To substitute symbol symbol with its contents the symbol should be enclosed within parenthesis and preceded by a $ sign. For example, if symbol FOO contains the text string "BAR" then $(FOO) will be substituted with the string "BAR";. Symbol names are case sensitive.

3.7.2 Examples

...

DEFSYM TAPEDIR "/home/hercules/tapes"

...

0380 3420 $(TAPEDIR)/scratch.aws

...

In the above example device 0380 will be a 3420 loaded with the AWSTAPE file in the directory

"/home/hercules/tapes/scratch.aws".

3.7.3 Special symbols

3.7.3.1 Device group symbols

When multiple devices are defined with a single device definition, then the following symbols may be used. These are defined as containing the relevant device address for each device:

• CUU

3 digit device number, upper case hexadecimal digits

• CUUU

• cuu

• cuuu

4 digit device number, upper case hexadecimal digits

3 digit device number, lower case hexadecimal digits

4 digit device number, lower case hexadecimal digits

Example:

0200,0201 3340 /home/hercules/dasds/myvols.$(CUU) will define 2 3340 packs with device 0200 being loaded from the file “myvols.200” and device 0201 defined from “myvols.201”.

3.7.3.2 Environment variables

If a symbol is not explicitly defined by a DEFSYM statement and an environment variable by the same name exists, then the string contents of that environment variable will be used for substitution.

Hercules Emulator V3.09 – User Reference Guide Page 29

3.7.3.3 Undefined symbols

If a symbol is not defined by an explicit DEFSYM, is not an automatically generated symbol or is not an environment variable, an empty string will be substituted.

3.7.4 Escaping substitution, recursion

To specify the '$’ string without incurring substitution an additional '$' sign should be used. For example,

$$(FOO) will not be substituted. If substitution is required but the preceding text is to contain a '$' sign as the very last character then $$$(FOO) would be specified. Thus if symbol FOO contains "BAR", then

$$(FOO) will remain "$$(FOO)" while $$$(FOO) will become "$BAR". Substitution is not recursive, only one substitution pass is made.

3.8 Enhanced Symbol Substitution

Enhanced symbol substitution is an additional method for specifiying symbols. It differs from the above normal symbol substitution in several important ways.

3.8.1 Differences from conventional Symbol Substitution

The syntax of the enhanced symbol substitution differs from conventional symbol substitution. Enhanced substitution symbol names are specified using "${var}" (dollar sign and brace) rather than "$(var)" (dollar sign and parenthesis).

This enhanced syntax supports the specification of a default value that will be used whenever the named symbol is not otherwise defined. The default value is placed within the opening and closing braces just as the symbol name is but separated from it by either a single equal sign "=" or a colon-equal-sign ":=". For example, specifying "${DASD_PATH=dasd/}" in your configuration file will result in the value of the

"DASD_PATH" symbol or environment variable being substituted, or if the variable is undefined, the value

"dasd/" instead. If no default value is specified then an empty string will be used instead.

An important distinction of enhanced symbol substitution is that it only occurs from host defined environment variables and not from any identically named DEFSYM symbol should one exist. For example, if environment variable "FOO" is defined with the value "bar", then the configuration file statement

"DEFSYM FOO myfoo", followed immediately by the statement "${FOO}" causes the value "bar" to be substituted and not "myfoo" as might be expected. Whereas the statement "$(FOO)", since it is a normal symbol substitution sequence, will be substituted with "myfoo", the value defined by the preceding

DEFSYM statement.

To clarify, the two symbol substitution techniques are supported completely separately from each other.

DEFSYM allows you to use previously defined or undefined, private (internally defined), symbols separate from the host operating system's environment variable pool. Enhanced symbol substitution allows readonly access to the host environment variable pool with no support for modifying an already defined symbol (environment variable), however with a convenient means of defining a default value to be used should the specified host environment variable be currently undefined.

It is important to note that symbol names, potentially being the names of environment variables, are subject to whatever case sensitivity the host operating system happens to enforce or allow. Under Windows environment variables are not case sensitive, whereas on other operating systems they may be.

Thus "${FOO}", "${foo}", "${Foo}" etc, all cause the same value to be substituted on Windows, whereas the DEFSYM symbols $(FOO) and $(foo), could be substituted with two completely different values under a case sensitive operating system. IE: the Hercules implementation of DEFSYM is case sensitive across all supported platforms.

Hercules Emulator V3.09 – User Reference Guide Page 30

3.8.2 Syntax

To substitute symbol symbol with the current environment variable value, the symbol should be enclosed within braces and preceded by a $ sign. For example, if an environment variable named FOO holds the value "BAR", then ${FOO} will be substituted with the string "BAR". If the environment variable "FOO" is not defined then a null (empty) string is substituted instead.

If the string "${FOO:=myfoo}" is used instead, then the value "BAR" will still be substituted if the value

"BAR" was previously assigned to FOO, but will be substituted with the value "myfoo" instead if the environment variable FOO is currently undefined.

Note too that the default value is a literal string and no substitution is applied to it. Thus attempting to use the syntax "${foo=${bar}}" will not yield the expected results. It will not be substituted with the currently defined value of the "bar" environment variable, but rather by the literal string "${bar" followed immediately by the literal character '}'.

Symbol names (environment variable names) are not case sensitive on Windows whereas they might be on other host operating systems.

3.8.3 Examples

...

0120 3390 ${DASD_PATH=dasd/} mvsv5r.120

...

In the above example, device 0120 will be a 3390 loaded with the DASD file from the directory specified in the environment variable "DASD_PATH" or, if the DASD-PATH environment variable is not defined, the value "dasd/" instead.

4.3.3 Parameter

DISABLE

ENABLE

The “ASN and LX Reuse Facility” is disabled. This is the default and is always disabled for S/370 and ESA/390 modes. Set it to DISABLE if the operating system does not support this feature and it inadvertently sets CR0 bit 44 to 1, usually leading to an unexpected program interrupt when instructions such as LASP are issued.

The “ASN and LX Reuse Facility” is enabled. Set this parameter to ENABLE if the operating system supports this z/Architecture feature and the use of this feature is desired.

4.4 AUTOMOUNT (Tape automount root directory)

4.4.1 Function

Specifies the host system directory where the guest is allowed or not allowed to automatically load virtual tape volumes from. Prefix allowable directories with a '+' (plus) sign and unallowable directories with a '-'

(minus) sign. The default prefix if neither is specified is the '+' sign (an allowable directory).

All host system virtual tape volumes to be automounted by the guest must reside within one of the specified allowable host system directories or any of its subdirectories while not also being within any of the specified unallowable directories or any of their subdirectories, in order for the guest-invoked automount to be accepted.

Specifying a disallowed automount directory does not preclude the Hercules operator from manually mounting any file via the DEVINIT console command - even one in a currently defined disallowed automount directory. The AUTOMOUNT statement only controls guest-invoked automatic tape mounts and not manual tape mounts performed by the Hercules operator.

All directories must be specified on separate statements, but as many statements as needed may be specified in order to describe the desired allowable/unallowable directories layout. For convenience, an

AUTOMOUNT console command is also provided to dynamically add new or remove existing automount directories at any time.

The automount feature is activated whenever you specify at least one allowable or unallowable directory.

If only unallowable directories are specified, then the current directory becomes the only defined allowable automount directory by default.

All specified directories are always resolved to fully-qualified absolute directory paths before being saved.

Caution: Enabling this feature may have security consequences depending on which allowable host system directories you specify as well as how your guest operating system enforces authorized use of the

Set Diagnose (X'4B') channel command code.

Refer to the description of the virtual tape device 'NOAUTOMOUNT' option for more information.

NO indicates that the SCSIMOUNT option is disabled, forcing all SCSI tape mounts to be done manually via an appropriate DEVINIT command.

Yes enables the option and causes periodic queries of the SCSI tape drive in a five second interval to automatically detect when a tape is mounted. YES is equivalent with

“SCSIMOUNT 5”.

A value from 1 to 99 seconds (inclusive) enables this option and causes periodic queries of the SCSI tape drive to automatically detect if a tape is mounted.

4.6.3 Parameter

option

Set a CCKD option. Multiple options may be specified, separated by commas with no intervening blanks.

The CCKD options are:

COMP=n

Specifies the compression type to be used. This overrides the compression used for all

CCKD files. The default (-1) means don’t override the compression. Valid compression types are:

-1 Default

0 None

1 zlib

2 bzip2

COMPPARM=n Overrides the compression parameter. A higher value generally means more compression at the expense of CPU and/or storage. The default (-1) means don’t override the compression parameter. The value of n can be from -1 and 9.

RA=n

Sets the Number of read ahead threads. When sequential track or block group access is detected, some number (RAT=n) of tracks or block groups are queued (RAQ=n) to be read by one of the read ahead threads. The default is 2, the value of n can be a number from 1 to 9.

RAQ=n

Sets the size of the read ahead queue. When sequential track or block group access is detected, some number (RAT=n) of tracks or block groups are queued in the read ahead queue. The default is 4, the value of n can be a number from 0 to 16. A value of zero disables read ahead.

RAT=n

WR=n

GCINT=n

Sets the number of tracks or block groups to read ahead when sequential track or block group access is detected. The default is 2, the value of ratn can be a number from 0 to

16. A value of zero disables read ahead.

Sets the number of writer threads. When the cache is flushed, updated cache entries are marked write pending and a writer thread is signalled. The writer thread compresses the track or block group and writes the compressed image to the emulation file.

A writer thread is CPU-intensive while compressing the track or block group and I/Ointensive while writing the compressed image. The writer thread runs one nicer than the

CPU thread(s). The default is 2, a value from 1 to 9 can be specified

This is the number of seconds the garbage collector thread waits during an interval. At the end of an interval the garbage collector performs space recovery, flushes the cache and optionally ‘fsyncs’ the emulation file. However, the file will not be ‘fsynced’ unless at least 5 seconds have elapsed since the last synchronization (FSYNC). The default is 10 seconds. You can specify a number between 1 and 60.

GCPARM=n

A value affecting the amount of data moved during the garbage collectors space recovery routine. The garbage collector determines an amount of space to move based on the ratio of free space to used space in an emulation file and on the number of free spaces in the file. The garbage collector wants to reduce the free space to used space ratio and the number of free spaces.

The value is logarithmic; a value of 8 means moving 2

8

the selected value while a negative value similarly decreases the amount to be moved. Normally, 256K will be moved for a file in an interval. Specifying a value of 8 can increase the amount to 64M. At least 64K will be moved. Specifying a large value (such as 8) may not increase the garbage collection efficiency correspondingly. The default is 0. You can specify a number from -8 to 8.

Hercules Emulator V3.09 – User Reference Guide Page 40

NOSTRESS=n Indicates whether stress writes will occur or not. A track or block group may be written under stress when a high percentage of the cache is pending write or when a device I/O thread is waiting for a cache entry. When a stressed write occurs, the compression algorithm and/or compression parm may be relaxed, resulting in faster compression but usually a larger compressed image. If NOSTRESS is set to one, then a stressed situation is ignored. You would typically set this value to one when you want create the smallest emulation file possible in exchange for a possible performance degradation. The default is 0. You can specify 0 (enable stressed writes) or 1 (disable stressed writes).

FREEPEND=n Specifies the free pending value for freed space. When a track or block group image is

written, the space it previously occupied is freed. This space will not be available for

future allocations until n garbage collection intervals have completed. In the event of a

catastrophic failure, previously written track or block group images should be recoverable

if the current image has not yet been written to the physical disk. By default the value is

set to -1 which means that if FSYNC is specified then the value is 1 otherwise it is 2. If 0 is specified then freed space is immediately available for new allocations. The default is -

1. You can specify a number from -1 to 4.

FSYNC=n

Enables or disables FSYNC. When FSYNC is enabled then the disk emulation file is synchronized with the physical hard disk at the end of a garbage collection interval (no more often than 5 seconds though). This means that if FREEPEND is non-zero and a catastrophic error occurs, the emulated disks should be recovered coherently. However, FSYNC may cause performance degradation depending on the host operating system and / or the host operating system level. The default is 0 (fsync disabled), you can specify 0 (disable FSYNC) or 1 (enable FSYNC).

TRACE=n

value

Specifies the number of CCKD trace entries. You would normally specify a non-zero when debugging or capturing a problem in CCKD code. When the problem occurs, you should enter the "k" Hercules console command which will print the trace table entries.

The default is 0. You can specify a number between 0 and 200000. Each trace entry represents 128 bytes. Normally, for debugging, it is recommended to use 100000.

LINUXNULL=n If set to 1 then tracks written to 3390 CCKD volumes that were initialized with the -linux option will be checked if they are null (that is if all 12 4096 byte user records contain zeroes). This is used by the DASDCOPY utility. The default is 0.

GCSTART=n If set to 1 then space recovery will become active on any emulated disks that have free space. Normally space recovery will ignore emulated disks until they have been updated.

The default is 0.

Notes:

raq should be at least as large as ra. Read ahead threads are scheduled from entries in the read ahead queue. Likewise rat should not exceed raq because only raq tracks or block groups can be queued at any time.

• The number of writer threads wr should usually be 1 more than the number of host processors.

This is because one writer thread could be CPU-bound (compressing a track or block-group image) and the other could be i/o-bound (writing the compressed image).

• The garbage collection interval governs the maximum time in seconds an updated track or block group image will reside in storage before being written to the emulation file. A large value may mean more data loss if a catastrophic error occurs. A small value may mean that more CPU time is spent compressing images.

For example, suppose that a particular image is updated several times each second. If the interval is changed from the default 5 seconds to 1 second, then that image will be compressed and written 5 times more frequently. A large value may cause more cache flushes within a garbage collection interval. These kinds of flushes mean that a read will wait because there are no avail-

Hercules Emulator V3.09 – User Reference Guide Page 41

able cache entries, slowing the emulated operating system. A large value will also cause more pending free space to build up (since free space is flushed each interval). This may mean that the garbage collector space recovery routine will perform more work and the resulting emulation file may be larger.

• Specify fsync=1 and gcint=5 if you are seriously concerned about your data being lost due to a failure. fsync will ensure your data on disk is coherent. However, fsync may cause a noticeable performance degradation. Note that an fsync will not be performed more often than every 5 seconds.

4.6.4 Examples

Example 1:

Set the CCKD options to use bzip2 as compression method and using maximum compression.

CCKD COMP=2,COMPPARM=9

Example 2:

Set the CCKD options to use the default compression method, as well as default compression. Disable stressed writes and set the number of trace entries to 100000.

4.9 CONKPALV (Console and telnet clients keep-alive option)

4.9.1 Function

The CONKPALV parameter specifies the tn3270 console and telnet clients keep-alive option values that control automatic detection of disconnected tn3270 / telnet client sessions.

This is a built-in feature of TCP/IP that allows detection of unresponsive TCP/IP connections and not idle clients; the connection will not be terminated after the specified idle time. The 3270 sessions can remain idle for a long time without any data being transmitted. The TCP/IP Keep-Alive feature only detects unresponsive TCP/IP stacks. Thus, even if the 3270 client is completely idle, the systems TCP/IP stack itself still should respond to the keep-alive probes sent from the Hercules end of the link. If it does not however, then the TCP/IP connection is obviously down and the 3270 sessions at the Hercules end of the link are terminated as a consequence.

Some older platforms may ignore all of the specified values and use platform specific values instead.

idle

The idle value specifies the number of seconds of inactivity until the first keep-alive probe is sent. The default for the idle value is 3 seconds.

intv count

The intv value specifies the interval in seconds between the probes if no acknowledgement is received from the previous probe. The default for intv is 1 second.

The count value specifies the number of unacknowledged keep-alive packets sent before the connection is considered to have failed. The default value is 10.

Note: On Windows platforms the count value is ignored and cannot be changed from its default value of 10.

4.14 DEFSYM (Define symbol)

4.14.1 Function

Defines symbol symbol is to contain value value. The symbol can then be the object of a substitution used later in the configuration file or for console commands. If value contains blanks or spaces it must be enclosed within quotes or apostrophes. See chapter “Symbol Substitutions” for a more in-depth discussion on this feature.

Substitution is available in configuration statements, meaning it is possible to perform substitution in the

DEFSYM statement itself. However, symbols are always defined as the last step in the process, so attempting to self define a symbol will result in an empty string.

4.16.3 Parameter

0 Specify 0 to cause an unlimited number of ‘semi-permanent’ threads to be created on an

‘as-needed’ basis. This is the default. With this option, a thread is created to service an

I/O request for a device if one does not already exist. When the I/O is complete the thread enters an idle state waiting for new work. If a new I/O request for the device arrives before the timeout period expires the existing thread will be reused. The timeout value is currently hard coded at 5 minutes.

Note that this option can cause one thread (or possibly more) to be created for each device in your configuration. Specifying 0 means there is no limit to the number of threads that can be created.

Specifiy -1 to cause ‘one time only’ temporary threads to be created to service each I/O request to a device. Once the I/O request is complete, the thread exits. Subsequent I/Os to the same device will cause another worker thread to be created again.

Specifiy a value from 1 to n to set an upper limit to the number of threads that can be

created to service any I/O request to any device. Like the “0” option, each thread once

finished servicing an I/O request enters an idle state. If a new request arrives before the

timeout period expires, the thread is reused. If all threads are busy when a new I/O

request arrives a new thread is created only if the specified maximum number of threads have not yet been reached. If the specified maximum number of threads already has been reached then the I/O request is placed in a queue and will be serviced by the first available thread (eg. by whichever thread becomes idle first).

This option was created to address a threading issue, possibly related to the Cygwin phtreads implementation on Windows systems. On Windows systems positive DEVTMAX values are currently not honored and are treated identically as if the value 0 had been specified. The default for non-Windows systems is 0.

4.17 DIAG8CMD (DIAGNOSE 8 command setting)

4.17.1 Function

This parameter specifies whether a command issued through Diagnose 8 will be executed by Hercules as a Hercules commands or not. An optional second argument can be specified to request whether the commands issued using the Diagnose 8 interface will be traced at the console. This may be useful for programs that routinely issue console commands using the Diagnose 8 interface.

Caution: Enabling this feature may have security consequences. When this feature is enabled it is possible for guest operating systems running under Hercules to issue commands directly to the host operating system by means of the Hercules sh (shell) command. This ability may be disabled via the

SHCMDOPT statement.

ECHO

Commands issued through the Diagnose 8 interface will generate a Specification

Exception program interrupt on the issuing CPU. This is the default.

Commands issued through the Diagnose 8 interface will be executed by Hercules as

Hercules commands.

When ECHO is specified, a message is issued as the console is about to issue the command, the command is redisplayed as if it was entered through the console input line, and a final message is issued to indicate the command completed.

NOECHO

When NOECHO is specified, no such messages are displayed and the command completes silently, except for the output of the command itself if the Diagnose 8 interface did not request a response buffer. This is the default.

The value of ECHO or NOECHO has no effect on command output being placed into a response buffer if the Diagnose 8 interface requested one.

4.18 ECPSVM (ECPS:VM support status (VM))

4.18.1 Function

This parameter specifies, whether ECPS:VM (Extended Control Program Support : Virtual Machine) support is to be enabled and – if it is enabled – to which level. The purpose of ECPS:VM is to provide to the VM/370 operating system a set of shortcut facilities to perform hypervisor functions (CP Assists) and virtual machine simulation (VM Assists).

Although this feature does not affect VM operating system products operating in XA, ESA or z/Architecture mode, it will affect VM/370 and VM/SP products running under VM/XA, VM/ESA or z/VM. Running

VM/370 and VM/SP products under VM/XA, VM/ESA or z/VM should be done with ECPS:VM disabled.

ECPS:VM should not be enabled in AP or MP environments. ECPS:VM has no effect on non-VM operating systems. It is however recommended to disable ECPS:VM when running native non-VM operating systems.

If a specific level is given this value will be reported to the operating system when it issues a Store

ECPS:VM level but it does not otherwise alter the ECPS:VM facility operations. Please note that this is a partial implementation.

This includes (but may not be limited to) 3410 and 3420 tape drives, 2311 and 2314 direct access storage devices and 2703 communication controllers. Because those legacy devices didn't originally support this command, and for compatibility reasons, the default is OFF or

DISABLE.

Specify ON or ENABLE if your guest operating system needs the Sense ID support to dynamically detect those devices. Note that most current operating systems will not detect those devices even though Sense

ID is enabled because those devices never supported the Sense ID in the first place. This mainly applies to custom built or modified versions of guest operating systems that are aware of this specific Hercules capability.

If one digit is specified then STIDP stores a format-0 CPU ID containing the logical CPU number, the LPAR number, and the last four digits of the CPU serial number. If two digits are specified then STIDP stores a format-1 CPU ID containing the two-digit LPAR identifier followed by the last four digits of the CPU serial number.

If LPARNUM is not specified in the configuration file then STIDP returns a CPUID as before, where the leftmost digit of the serial number is replaced by the logical CPU number if the serial number begins with a zero.

4.33 MAINSIZE (Main storage in MB)

4.33.1 Function

Specifies the size of the main storage in megabytes. The actual upper limit of the main storage is determined by the host system's architecture, operating system, and on some systems the amount of physical memory and paging space you have available. The value must not exceed 4095 (almost 4GB) for 32-bit platforms and 4,294,967,295 (about 4 million GB) for 64-bit platforms.

The practical limit depends on the maximum amount of storage that can be obtained by malloc (usually around 1 GB on 32-bit platforms; on 64-bit platforms the value should only be limited by available paging space).

4.35 MAXCPU (Maximum number of CPUs)

4.35.1 Function

The MAXCPU configuration statement specifies the maximum number of installed processor engines.

The NUMCPU statement specifies the number of engines which will be configured online at startup time.

All processors are CP engines unless otherwise specified by the ENGINES statement.

MAX_CPU_ENGINES is a compile-time variable which sets an upper limit on the value of MAXCPU. The value of MAX_CPU_ENGINES is displayed in the build information message on the Hercules control panel at startup time. To change the value of MAX_CPU_ENGINES you must rebuild Hercules. For Unix builds, specify "./configure --enable-multi-cpu=nn" before performing make. For Windows builds, specify

"SET MAX_CPU_ENGINES=nn" before performing nmake.

MAX_CPU_ENGINES may be up to 128 on 64-bit Linux platforms. On Windows, and on all 32-bit platforms, the maximum value is 64. For performance reasons, values above 32 are not recommended for

32-bit platforms. If MAX_CPU_ENGINES is set to 1 then multiprocessing is disabled. See also the NUM-

CPU statement for a discussion of the performance implications of MAX_CPU_ENGINES.

The value of MAXCPU can not exceed the value of MAX_CPU_ENGINES. If MAXCPU is not specified then the default value is the value of MAX_CPU_ENGINES.

4.38 MOUNTED_TAPE_REINIT (Control tape initialization)

4.38.1 Function

This system parameter specifies whether reinitialization of tape drive devices via the DEVINIT command in order to mount a new tape should be allowed if there is already a tape mounted on the drive. This option is meant as a safety mechanism to protect against accidentally unmounting a tape from the wrong device as a result of a simple typing error and thereby eventually cancelling a potentially important tape job. Please note that for SCSI tape drives the "DEVINIT nnnn *" command has no effect. The tape must be unmounted manually since it is a real physical device and not emulated via a disk file like '.AWS' or

'.HET' tapes.

Specifiying ALLOW, the default, indicates that new tapes may be mounted via "DEVINIT nnnn new-tapefilename" irrespective of whether or not there is already a tape mounted on the drive.

Specifying DISALLOW prevents new tapes from being mounted if one is already mounted. Before the new tape can be mounted the existing one has first to be unmounted (via the "DEVINIT nnnn *" command). Otherwise the DEVINIT attempt to mount the new tape is rejected.

4.39 NUMCPU (Number of emulated CPUs)

4.39.1 Function

NUMCPU specifies the number of emulated processor engines which will be configured online at startup time. All processors are CP engines unless otherwise specified by the ENGINES configuration statement.

NUMCPU can not exceed the value of the MAXCPU configuration statement. If NUMCPU is less than

MAXCPU then the remaining engines can be configured online later.

Multiprocessor emulation works best if your host system actually has more than one physical CPU, but you can still emulate multiple CPUs nevertheless even on a uniprocessor system (and you might even achieve a small performance benefit when you do). There is little point, however, in specifying NUMCPU greater than 1 unless your guest operating system (running under Hercules) is actually able to support multiple CPUs.

If you do not actually need multiprocessor emulation, then setting MAX_CPU_ENGINES to 1 at compile time might even produce a slight performance advantage too.

4.50 TIMERINT (Internal timer update interval)

4.50.1 Function

The TIMERINT parameter sets the internal timer update interval in microseconds. This parameter specifies how frequently Hercules's internal timers-update thread updates the TOD clock, CPU Timer and other architectural related clock/timer values.

The default interval is 50 microseconds which strikes a reasonable balance between clock accuracy and overall host performance. The minimum allowed value is 1 microsecond and the maximum is 1,000,000 microseconds (one second).

CAUTION: While a lower TIMERINT value may help increase the accuracy of the guest's TOD clock and

CPU Timer values it could also have severe negative impact on the overall performance of the host operating system. This is especially true when a low TIMERINT value is coupled with a high HERCPRIO and TODPRIO priority setting. Exercise extreme caution when choosing your desired TIMERINT in relationship to your chosen HERCPRIO and TODPRIO priority settings.

4.51 TODDRAG (TOD clock drag factor)

4.51.1 Function

TODDRAG specifies the TOD clock drag factor. This parameter can be used to slow down or speed up the TOD clock by a factor of nn. A significant slowdown can improve the performance of some operating systems which consume significant amounts of CPU time processing timer interrupts. A drag factor of 2.0 slows down the clock by 50%, a drag factor of 0.5 doubles the speed of the clock, a drag factor of 1.01 slows down the clock by 1% and 0.99 speeds up the clock by 1%.

4.57 Process and Thread Priorities

This section covers details regarding the priority settings within Hercules. The relevant system parameters are:

• CPUPRIO

• DEVPRIO

• HERCPRIO

• TODPRIO

4.57.1 Process Priorities

Under Linux a process is a thread and thread priority information applies instead.

For Windows the following conversions are used for translating Unix process priorities to Windows priority classes:

Unix

Process Priority

Windows

Priority Class

Meaning

-20 to -16

-15 to -9

-8 to -1

0 to 7

8 to 15

16 to 20

Realtime

High

Above Normal

Normal

Below Normal

Low

Process that has the highest possible priority. The threads of the process preempt the threads of all other processes, including operating system processes performing important tasks.

For example, a real-time process that executes for more than a very brief interval can cause disk caches not to flush or cause the mouse to be unresponsive.

Process that performs time-critical tasks that must be executed immediately. The threads of the process preempt the threads of normal or idle priority class processes. An example is the Task

List, which must respond quickly when called by the user, regardless of the load on the operating system. Use extreme care when using the high-priority class, because a high-priority class application can use nearly all available CPU time.

Process that has priority above the Normal class but below the

High class.

Process with no special scheduling needs.

Process that has priority above the Idle class but below the

Normal class.

Process whose threads run only when the system is idle. The threads of the process are preempted by the threads of any process running in a higher priority class. An example is a screen saver. The idle-priority class is inherited by child processes.

Table 4: Process Priority Conversions

Hercules Emulator V3.09 – User Reference Guide Page 102

Caution: On Windows, the value you choose for your Process Priority has a direct impact on how your

Thread Priorities are interpreted! You should never modify one without understanding what impact your doing so might have on the other!

4.57.2 Thread Priorities

On Linux/Unix hosts Hercules needs to be a setuid root program to allow it to reset its dispatching priority to a high (negative) value (i.e. “chown root.root hercules; chmod +s hercules”).

For Windows the following conversions are used for translating Linux/Unix thread priorities to Windows thread priorities:

Unix

Thread Priority

Windows

Thread Priority

Meaning

-20 to -16

-15 to -9

-8 to -1

0 to 7

8 to 15

16 to 19

20

Time Critical

Highest

Above Normal

Normal

Below Normal

Lowest

Idle

Base priority of 15 for Idle, Below Normal, Normal, Above Normal, or High class processes, and a base priority of 31 for Realtime class processes.

Priority 2 points above the priority class.

Priority 1 point above the priority class.

Normal priority for the priority class.

Priority 1 point below the priority class.

Priority 2 points below the priority class.

Base priority of 1 for Idle, Below Normal, Normal, Above Normal, or High class processes, and a base priority of 16 for Realtime class processes.

Table 5: Thread Priority Conversions

Caution: On Windows, your thread priority is interpreted differently based on your chosen process priority setting! You should never modify your thread priority settings without first reviewing your chosen process priority setting!

5. Device Definition Descriptions

5.1 Local non-SNA 3270 Devices

5.1.1 Function

The local non-SNA 3270 device statements are used to define terminals to the Hercules configuration.

There are no required arguments for this particular device type but there are several optional arguments that may be specified.

To use this device a tn3270 client must connect to the host machine via the port number specified on the

CNSLPORT statement. A valid tn3270 device type such as IBM-3278 must be used.

If the tn3270 client software allows it to specify a device type suffix (e.g. IBM-3278@GROUPNAME) then the suffix can be used to connect to that specific device number, if defined. If no suffix is used then the tn3270 client will be connected to the first available and defined 3270 device.

If a specific terminal device address is specified via the device type suffix of the tn3270 client software then it must be eligible to connect at that device address or the connection is immediately rejected. An alternative terminal device for which the tn3270 client might be eligible will not be automatically selected.

5.1.3 Parameter

devaddr devtype

This is the device address.

This is the device type. Valid terminal device types are 3270 and 3278.

groupname

If a terminal group name is given on the device statement then a device type suffix with this group name can be used to indicate that a device in this group is to be used. If a group name is specified as a terminal type suffix (e.g. IBM-3278@GROUPNAME) and there are no devices defined with that group name or no available devices remaining in

Hercules Emulator V3.09 – User Reference Guide Page 104

that group then the connection is rejected. If no group name is specified as a terminal

type suffix then the connection will only be eligible to terminal devices which also have no group name specified.

The terminal group name should be 1-8 alphanumeric characters in length, the first character being alphabetic and it should not be a hexadecimal number. Upper and lower case letters in the group name are considered to be equivalent.

* The asterisk is used to indicate any terminal group name. It may be omitted if there are no additional arguments following the group name. If an IP address (and optionally mask) is specified and there is no specific group name desired then the asterisk must be coded to distinguish the terminal group name and the IP address arguments.

ipaddr [mask] The optional IP address and subnet masks specify the IP address(es) at which client(s) are allowed to connect via the device address identified by the device statement. This provides an additional means of specifying which device(s) a client tn3270 session may connect to.

If the IP address and mask (default 255.255.255.255 if not specified) of the tn3270 client attempting to connect match the IP address/mask entered on the device statement, then the client is eligible to connect at this device address. Otherwise the client is ineligible to connect at this device address and the next available device, if any, for which the client is eligible to connect, will be attempted.

If no permissible terminal devices remain (terminal devices for which the client is eligible to connect) or there are no more available terminal devices then the client connection is rejected.

The optional IP address and subnet mask may be specified in conjunction with the terminal group argument. In this case the terminal group argument must be specified ahead of the optional IP address and subnet mask arguments. To specify an IP address and a subnet mask without also specifying a terminal group use an asterisk (“*”) as the group name substitute or placeholder.

If an IP address / mask are not specified then any client tn3270 session is allowed to connect to the device (provided they are also a member of the specified terminal group, if any).

The terminal group name must match if specified, regardless of any optional IP address / mask. To summarize, the device number suffix always takes precedence over any group name and any group name always takes precedence over any IP address/mask value.

5.2 Integrated 3270 (SYSG) Console

5.2.1 Function

The integrated 3270 (SYSG) console is similar to a local non-SNA 3270 device, except that it is not addressed by a subchannel number and it is supported only by certain system control programs. The

SYSG console is defined like a 3270 device except that the device type is SYSG and the device address is ignored. Only one SYSG console can be defined in a configuration.

Use tn3270 client software to connect to the SYSG console device via the port number specified on the

CNSLPORT statement, just as you would connect to a regular local non-SNA 3270 device.

The SYSG console configuration statement recognizes optional arguments which specify group name and IP address in the same way as previously described for a local non-SNA 3270 device. These optional arguments provide a means to ensure that a given tn3270 client can connect directly to the SYSG console.

If the group name and IP address arguments are not specified, then the SYSG console is considered to be a member of the general pool of devices eligible for connection to any incoming tn3270 client.

SYSG groupname

If a terminal group name is given on the device statement then a device type suffix with this group name can be used to indicate that a device in this group is to be used. If a group name is specified as a terminal type suffix (e.g. IBM-3278@GROUPNAME) and there are no devices defined with that group name or no available devices remaining in

that group then the connection is rejected. If no group name is specified as a terminal

type suffix then the connection will only be eligible to terminal devices which also have no group name specified.

ipaddr [mask] The optional IP address and subnet masks specify the IP address(es) at which client(s) are allowed to connect via the device address identified by the device statement. This provides an additional means of specifying which device(s) a client tn3270 session may connect to.

If the IP address and mask (default 255.255.255.255 if not specified) of the tn3270 client attempting to connect match the IP address/mask entered on the device statement, then the client is eligible to connect at this device address. Otherwise the client is ineligible to connect at this device address and the next available device, if any, for which the client is eligible to connect, will be attempted.

If no permissible terminal devices remain (terminal devices for which the client is eligible to connect) or there are no more available terminal devices then the client connection is rejected.

The optional IP address and subnet mask may be specified in conjunction with the terminal group argument. In this case the terminal group argument must be specified ahead of the optional IP address and subnet mask arguments. To specify an IP address and a subnet mask without also specifying a terminal group use an asterisk (“*”) as the group name substitute or placeholder.

If an IP address / mask are not specified then any client tn3270 session is allowed to connect to the device (provided they are also a member of the specified terminal group, if any).

5.3 Console Printer-Keyboard Devices

5.3.1 Function

These device statements are used to define “Console Printer-Keyboard” devices to Hercules. To use the

Console Printer-Keyboard device a telnet client must connect to the host machine via the port number specified on the CNSLPORT statement in that configuration file.

If the telnet client software allows it to specify a device type suffix (e.g. ansi@0009) then the suffix can be used to specify the specific 1052 or 3215 device to which the client should connect. If no suffix is used in the telnet client software (or the software does not allow it), then the client will be connected to the first available 1052 or 3215 device for which it is eligible.

issued to the device whenever the system is awaiting input from the device.

The NOPROMPT argument, if specified, must preceed the optional group name and any ipaddr mask arguments.

groupname

If a terminal group name is given on the device statement then a device type suffix with this group name can be used to indicate that a device in this group is to be used. If a group name is specified as a terminal type suffix (e.g. IBM-3278@GROUPNAME) and there are no devices defined with that group name or no available devices remaining in

that group then the connection is rejected. If no group name is specified as a terminal

type suffix then the connection will only be eligible to terminal devices which also have no group name specified.

Hercules Emulator V3.09 – User Reference Guide Page 110

If an IP address (and optionally mask) is specified and there is no specific group name desired then the asterisk must be coded to distinguish the terminal group name and the IP address arguments.

ipaddr [mask] The optional IP address and subnet masks specify the IP address(es) at which client(s) are allowed to connect via the device address identified by the device statement. This provides an additional means of specifying which device(s) a client tn3270 session may connect to.

If the IP address and mask (default 255.255.255.255 if not specified) of the tn3270 client attempting to connect match the IP address/mask entered on the device statement, then the client is eligible to connect at this device address. Otherwise the client is ineligible to connect at this device address and the next available device, if any, for which the client is eligible to connect, will be attempted.

If no permissible terminal devices remain (terminal devices for which the client is eligible to connect) or there are no more available terminal devices then the client connection is rejected.

The optional IP address and subnet mask may be specified in conjunction with the terminal group argument. In this case the terminal group argument must be specified ahead of the optional IP address and subnet mask arguments. To specify an IP address and a subnet mask without also specifying a terminal group use an asterisk (“*”) as the group name substitute or placeholder.

5.5.3 Parameter

devaddr devtype

This is the device address.

This is the device type. Valid card reader types are 1442, 2501, 3505.

filename

SOCKDEV

EOF

The name (and optionally the path) of the card reader file.

Indicates that the card reader is a socket device, wherein the filename is actually a socket specification instead of a device filename. When used, there must be only one filename specified in the form “port”, “host:port” or “sockpath/sockname”. The device then accepts remote connections on the given TCP/IP port or Unix domain socket and reads data from the socket instead from a device file. This allows automatic remote submission of card reader data. See chapter "Submitting Jobs via the Socket Reader" for more details.

EOF specifies that unit exception status is presented after reading the last card in the file. This option is persistent and will remain in effect until the reader is reinitialized with the INTRQ option.

Hercules Emulator V3.09 – User Reference Guide Page 114

INTRQ

INTRQ specifies that unit check status with intervention required sense bytes is presented after reading the last card in the file. This option is persistent and will remain in

effect until the reader is reinitialized with the EOF option.

MULTIFILE

Specifies, when mutliple files are entered, to automatically open the next input file and

continue reading whenever EOF is encountered on a given file. If not specified reading stops once EOF is reached on a given file and an attention interrupt is required to open and begin reading the next file.

EBCDIC

ASCII

Specifies that the file contains fixed length 80-byte EBCDIC records with no line-end delimiters.

Specifies that the file contains variable length lines of ASCII characters delimited by LF

(line feed) or CRLF (carriage return line feed) sequences at the end of each line.

TRUNC

AUTOPAD

If neither EBCDIC or ASCII is coded then the device handler attempts to detect the format of the card image file when the device is first accessed. Auto-detection is not supported for socket devices and the default is ASCII if SOCKDEV is specified.

With ASCII files, TRUNC defines, that lines longer than 80 characters are truncated instead of producing a unit check error.

With EBCDIC files, AUTOPAD defines, that the file is automatically padded to a multiple of 80 bytes if necessary.

5.5.4 Examples

Example 1:

Define a 3505 card reader device on device address 000C. The name and path of the card reader file is

"D:/JCL/DUMMY.JCL". A unit exception status has to be presented after reading the last card in the file.

000C 3505 D:/JCL/DUMMY.JCL EOF

Example 2:

Define a 1442 card reader device on device address 000C. The name and path of the card reader file is

"D:/JCL/JCL.TXT". The file contains fixed length 80-byte EBCDIC records, automatically padded to a multiple of 80 bytes if necessary. A unit check status with intervention required sense bytes has to be presented after reading the last card in the file.

Example 3:

Define a 2501 card reader device on device address 000C. The card reader is a socket device accepting remote connections from address 127.0.0.1 port 2501. The file contains variable length lines of ASCII characters delimited by line feed or carriage return line feed sequences at the end of each line. Lines longer than 80 bytes have to be truncated and a unit exception status has to be presented after reading the last card in the file.

This is the device type. A valid card punch type is 3525.

The name (and optionally the path) of the card punch file.

ASCII

CRLF

NOCLEAR

ASCII specifies that the file will be written as variable length lines of ASCII characters,

delimited by line feeds or carriage return line feed sequences. Trailing blanks are removed from each line. If the ASCII argument is not specified, the file is written as fixed length 80-byte EBCDIC records with no line-end delimiters.

This optional parameter specifies that carriage return line feed sequences are written at

the end of each line. If the CRLF argument is not specified,line feeds are only written at the end of each line.

This argument specifies that the output file will not be cleared to zero bytes when it is opened. If NOCLEAR is not specified, then any previous content of the file is destroyed when the file is opened for output.

Hercules Emulator V3.09 – User Reference Guide Page 116

5.6.4 Examples

Example 1:

Define a 3525 card punch device on device address 000D. The punched output has to be written to the file "D/PCH/PCH1.TXT" as variable length lines of ASCII records delimited by carriage return line feed sequences. Any existing output in the file has to be kept when the file is opened for output.

000D 3525 D:/PCH/PCH1.TXT ASCII CRLF NOCLEAR

Example 2:

Define a 3525 card punch device on device address 000D. The punched output has to be written to the file "D/PCH/PCH2.TXT" as fixed length 80-byte EBCDIC records with no line-end delimiters. Any existing output in the file will be destroyed when the file is opened for output.

Hercules Emulator V3.09 – User Reference Guide Page 117

5.7 Line Printer Devices

5.7.1 Function

The line printer device statement defines a printer to the Hercules configuration. The argument specifies the name of a file to which the printer output will be written. The output is written in the form of variable length lines of ASCII characters, delimited by line feeds or carriage return line feed sequences. Trailing blanks are removed from each line. Carriage control characters are translated to blank lines or ASCII form feed characters. If the file exists it will be overwritten.

If the filename begins with the vertical bar '|' pipe character, then it is removed and the remainder of the filename is interpreted as a command line (the name of a program or batch file followed by any necessary arguments) to which to "pipe" the printer output to. This is known as the "print-to-pipe" feature. All printer output is then sent to the piped program’s stdin input, and all of the piped program's stdout and stderr output is piped back to Hercules for displaying on the hardware console.

SOCKDEV indicates that the line printer is a socket device wherein the filename is actually a socket specification in the form host:port instead of a device filename. The device then accepts remote connections on the given TCP/IP port and writes data to the socket instead to a device file. A Windows software that supports a socket printer is Fish's "HercPrt" (Hercules Remote Printer Spooler). It spools the print output from a Hercules socket printer and creates either PDF, RTF or just plain text files. A control file enables

HercPrt to split the printouts on job separator page boundaries and name the file according the the actual job accounting field values.

5.7.3 Parameter

devaddr devtype

This is the device address.

This is the device type. Valid printer types are 1403 and 3211.

filename

CRLF

NOCLEAR

SOCKDEV

The name (and optionally the path) of the printer file or the “print-to-pipe” command line.

If the filename begins with the vertical bar '|' pipe character, then it is removed and the remainder of the filename is interpreted as a command line (the name of a program or batch file followed by any necessary arguments) to which to "pipe" the printer output to.

This is known as the "print-to-pipe" feature. All printer output is then sent to the piped program's stdin input, and all of the piped program's stdout and stderr output is piped back to Hercules for displaying on the hardware console.

If the "print-to-pipe" command line contains arguments, then quotes must be placed around the entire filename string including the vertical bar. If the "print-to-pipe" command line itself contains quotes, then the command line must be enclosed in apostrophes instead of quotes.

This optional parameter specifies that carriage return line feed sequences are written at the end of each line. If the CRLF argument is not specified then line feeds only are written at the end of each line.

This argument specifies that the output file will not be cleared to zero bytes when it is opened. If NOCLEAR is not specified, then any previous content of the file is destroyed when the file is opened for output.

SOCKDEV indicates that the line printer is a socket device wherein the filename is actually a socket specification instead of a device filename. When used, there must only be one filename specified in the form port or host:port. The device then accepts remote connections on the given TCP/IP port and writes data to the socket instead to a device file. This allows automatic remote spooling of line printer data. The sockdev option is mutually exclusive with all other printer options (like CRLF etc.) and must be specified alone.

5.7.4 Examples

Example 1:

Define a 1403 line printer device on device address 000E. The printed output has to be written to the file

"D:\PRT\PRT1.TXT" with carriage return line feed sequences at the end of each line. Any existing output in the file has to be kept when the file is opened for output.

000E 1403 D:/PRT/PRT1.TXT CRLF NOCLEAR

Example 2:

Define a 3211 line printer device on device address 000F. The printed output has to be written to the file

"D:\PRT\PRT2.TXT" with line feeds only at the end of each line. Any existing output in the file will be overwritten when the file is opened for output.

000F 3211 D:/PRT/PRT2.TXT

Hercules Emulator V3.09 – User Reference Guide Page 119

Example 3:

Define a 1403 line printer device on device address 000E. The line printer is a socket device with the IP address 192.168.0.199 and port 1403. Output is written to the socket instead to a device file.

000E 1403 192.168.0.199:1403 SOCKDEV

Example 4:

Define a 1403 line printer device on device address 000E. The command line for the print-to-pipe feature is “/usr/bin/lpr”, the argument for the ‘lpr’ program is “-Phplj” (Unix example). In the case of the Windows example the command line for the print-to-pipe feature is “C:\utils\pr”, the argument for the ‘pr’ program is

“-PLPTP1:” . Each printed line will have a carriage return line feed sequence at the end.

000E 1403 "|/usr/bin/lpr -Phplj" crlf

5.8 Emulated Tape Devices

Tape device statements are used to define tape devices to the Hercules configuration. Five types of emulation are supported:

• SCSI tapes

• Optical Media Attach (OMA) virtual files

• AWSTAPE virtual files

• HET virtual files

• Fake Tape virtual files

5.8.1 SCSI Tapes

5.8.1.1 Function

When defining SCSI tapes the argument specifies the tape device name (usually /dev/nst0). SCSI tapes are read and written using variable length EBCDIC blocks and filemarks exactly like a mainframe tape volume (see also the AUTO_SCSI_MOUNT system parameter).

ª¬¬¬ --blkid-32 ¬¬¬«

¬¬¬ --blkid-22 ¬¬¬¯

5.8.1.3 Parameter devaddr

This is the device address.

devtype

This is the device type. Valid device types are 3410, 3420, 3422, 3430, 3480, 3490, 8809 and 9347.

devname

The tape device name (usually “/dev/nst0 on Linux or “\\.\Tape0 on Windows).

--no-erg This option is intended to prevent issuance of the Erase Gap command to those SCSI tape drives that do not support it (e.g. Quantum DLT series). It causes Hercules's device emulation logic to ignore any Erase Gap commands issued to the drive and to return immediate 'success' instead.

Hercules Emulator V3.09 – User Reference Guide Page 121

--blkid-32

This option should only be used (specified) for drives such as the Quantum which support switching from read mode to write mode in the middle of a data stream without the need of an intervening Erase Gap command. Specifying it for any other model SCSI drive may cause incorrect functioning as a result of the Erase Gap command not being issued to the actual SCSI hardware.

Check the manufacturer information for your particular model of SCSI-attached tape drive

(and/or use Fish's "ftape" Windows utility) to determine whether or not this option is needed for your particular drive.

This option indicates that your SCSI-attached tape drive only supports 32-bit block-ids

(as used by 3590 drives) and not the 22-bit format used by 3480/3490 drives. You should only specify this option if you intend to define the drive as a model 3480 or 3490 device and then only if your actual SCSI drive uses 32-bit block-ids. If you define your Hercules tape drive as a model 3590 device however this option is not required as 3590 drives are already presumed to use 32-bit block-ids.

Specifying this option on a 3480/3490 device statement will cause Hercules device emulation logic to automatically translate the actual SCSI tape drive's 32-bit block-id into 22bit format before returning it back to the guest operating system (since that is the format it expects it to be in for a model 3480/3490 drive), and to translate the guest's 22-bit format block-id into 32-bit format before sending it to the actual SCSI hardware (since that is the format that the actual hardware requires it to be in).

The opposite of the above --blkid-32 option.

--blkid-22

5.8.1.4 Examples

Example 1:

Define a 3420 tape device on device address 0580. The tape device is a SCSI-attached tape drive which only supports 32-bit block-ids.

0580 3420 /dev/nst0 --blkid-32

5.8.2 Optical Media Attach (OMA) virtual files

5.8.2.1 Function

OMA device statements are used to define Optical Media Attach (OMA) virtual files to the Hercules configuration. OMA virtual files are read-only files which normally reside on CDROM. OMA virtual tapes consist of one CDROM file corresponding to each physical file of the emulated tape. An ASCII text file called the “Tape Descriptor File” (TDF) specifies the names of the files which make up the virtual tape.

The argument specifies the name of the tape descriptor file.

Each file on the virtual tape can be in one of the following three formats:

TEXT

TEXT files consist of variable length ASCII records delimited by carriage return line feed

(CRLF) sequences at the end of each record. Each record is translated to EBCDIC and presented to the program as one physical tape block.

FIXED nnnnn FIXED files consist of fixed length EBCDIC blocks of the specified length (nnnnn).

HEADERS

HEADERS files consist of variable length EBCDIC blocks. Each block is preceded by a

12-byte header.

If you have any IBM manuals in BookManager format on CDROM, you can see some examples of TDF files in the “\TAPES” directory on the CDROM.

"/CDROM/TAPES/".

0582 3480 /CDROM/TAPES/UAA186.TDF

5.8.3 AWSTAPE virtual files

5.8.3.1 Function

AWSTAPE device statements are used to define AWSTAPE virtual files to the Hercules configuration.

AWSTAPEs contain a complete tape in one file. AWSTAPE files consist of variable length EBCDIC blocks. Each block is preceded by a 6-byte header. Filemarks are represented by a 6-byte header with no data. This is the same format as is used by the IBM P/390 systems. The argument specifies the location of the AWSTAPE file.

5.8.3.3 Parameter devaddr

This is the device address.

devtype awsfile

This is the device type. Valid device types are 3410, 3420, 3422, 3430, 3480, 3490, 8809 and 9347.

The filename (and path) of the AWSTAPE file or “*”. An asterisk defines an empty tape

station. The tape must be manually be loaded on request.

If the filename starts with the “@” character (at sign), the file then describes a list of tape

emulation files to be loaded in succession. The syntax of each line in this file is identical

to the information that can be coded directly after the device type in the overall configuration file. Any emulation file name parameter specified in this file may be substituded by the character “*”, in which case it specifies a set of options to be applied to all additional emulation files specified in the list.

This function emulates an Automatic Cartridge Feeder (ACF. The ACF is a feature on

cartridge type tape drives (3480, 3490, etc..) that automatically loads a new tape when a

tape is removed from the drive. There is no real control over this device by the host as it

just keeps on feeding tapes one after the other. Although the ACF feature is unique to

cartridge type systems, the emulation accepts the use of the same technique for emulated 1/2 inch tapes reel drives as well.

Parameters are appended in succession. In all cases, if the same parameter is coded

more than once, the last instance takes precedence. Therefore it is possible to specify a

set of parameters in the base configuration file, another on an “*” line and another for each individual line in the list of files. Parameters are then appended in that order. A

SCSI tape device should not be given in a file list.

The remaining parameters are described in section 5.8.6 (“Common parameters for AWS, HET and

FakeTape virtual files”).

5.8.3.4 Examples

Example 1:

Define a 3490 tape device on device address 0580. The tape device is an AWSFILE virtual file named

"R0673A.AWS" located in path "/S390/TAPES/".

0580 3490 /S390/TAPES/R0673A.AWS

5.8.4 HET virtual files

5.8.4.1 HET virtual files

HET device statements are used to define HET virtual files to the Hercules configuration. These contain a complete tape in one file and have the same structure as the AWSTAPE format with the added ability to have compressed data.

The first argument specifies the location of the HET file. The filename must end with “.HET” to be recognized by Hercules as a HET file (e.g. “023178.HET”). There are several additional arguments that control various HET settings.

5.8.4.3 Parameter devaddr

This is the device address.

devtype hetfile

This is the device type. Valid device types are 3410, 3420, 3422, 3430, 3480, 3490, 8809 and 9347.

The filename (and path) of the HET file or “*”. An asterisk defines an empty tape station.

The tape must be manually loaded on request.

If the filename starts with the “@” character (at sign), the file then describes a list of tape

emulation files to be loaded in succession. The syntax of each line in this file is identical

Hercules Emulator V3.09 – User Reference Guide Page 127

to the information that can be coded directly after the device type in the overall configuration file. Any emulation file name parameter specified in this file may be substitued by the character “*”, in which case it specifies a set of options to be applied to all additional emulation files specified in the list.

This function emulates an Automatic Cartridge Feeder (ACF). The ACF is a feature on

cartridge type tape drives (3480, 3490, etc..) that automatically loads a new tape when a

tape is removed from the drive. There is no real control over this device by the host as it

just keeps on feeding tapes one after the other. Although the ACF feature is unique to

cartridge type systems, the emulation accepts the use of the same technique for emulated 1/2 inch tapes reel drives as well.

Parameters are appended in succession. In all cases, if the same parameter is coded

more than once, the last instance takes precedence. Therefore it is possible to specify a

set of parameters in the base configuration file, another on an “*” line and another for each individual line in the list of files. Parameters are then appended in that order. A

SCSI tape device should not be given in a file list!

The AWSTAPE argument causes HET files to be written in AWSTAPE format. This disables the additional feature provided by the HET format.

AWSTAPE

IDRC=n

COMPRESS and IDRC control whether compression should be used when writing to

HET files. The value of n can be “1” to turn compression on (the default), or can be “0” to turn compression off. IDRC is currently a synonym for COMPRESS but may be used in the future to control another emulated tape drive feature. Therefore COMPRESS is the preferred method to turn compression on or off.

COMPRESS=n Same as above.

METHOD=n

The METHOD argument allows you to specify which compression method to use. A value of “1” forces the use of ZLIB compression. A value of “2” forces the the use of

BZIP2compression. The default is “1”.

LEVEL=n

The LEVEL option controls the level of compression. It ranges from “1” (for fastest compression) to “9” (for best compression). The default compression level is “4”.

CHUNKSIZE=nnnnn

The CHUNKSIZE option allows you to create HET files with different chunk

sizes. The AWSTAPE (and therefore HET) formats allow each tape block to be logically

broken up into smaller chunks. For instance, if the S/3x0 application creates tapes with a

block size of 27998, those blocks would be broken down into nnnnn sized chunks. Although possible it is not recommended to change the chunk size, as decreasing this may reduce compression performance. The range of nnnnn is from 4096 to 65535. 65535 being the default.

STRICTSIZE=n Upon reaching the tape file size limit, depending on strictsize, the tape file will or will not be truncated to enforce the maxsize limit. The limit is only enforced during a write type operation. If the file already exists and the program only reads the file, then the file will not be truncated, regardless of the strictsize setting.

This affects any write that starts below the limit, but that would extend beyond the limit.

The STRICTSIZE parameter only affects compressed HET files. On AWS tapes, the limit is always enforced, but the file is not truncated (the write does not occur, because first

AWS tapes are never truncated and second the effects of the write are known in advance).

Regardless of strictsize, any write operation (Write, Write TM) will return a Unit Check with Equipment Check to the program if the file size exceeds the predefined limit. If

STRICTSIZE is “0”, the write will actually have been performed on the tape file. When

STRICTSIZE is set to “1”, the file will be truncated on the preceeding tape block boundary.

Care must be taken that regardless of the STRICTSIZE setting, the tape may become unusable for the guest program should such an event occur (absence of a Tape Mark for example). This option has no effect if maxsize is 0. The default is “0” (do not truncate).

Hercules Emulator V3.09 – User Reference Guide Page 128

The remaining parameters are described in section 5.8.6 (“Common parameters for AWS, HET and

FakeTape virtual files”).

5.8.4.4 Examples

Example 1:

Define a 3490 tape device on device address 0580. The tape device is a HET virtual file with name

"R0674A.HET" located in path "/S390/TAPES/". BZIP2 compression has to be turned on at a level of 9

(best compression).

0580 3490 /S390/TAPES/R0674A.HET COMPRESS=1 METHOD=2 LEVEL=9

5.8.5 Fake Tape virtual files

5.8.5.1 Function

Fake Tape virtual files contain a complete tape in one file. FakeTape files consist of variable length

EBCDIC blocks. Each block is preceded by a 12-byte ASCII-hex-character header. Filemarks are represented by a 12-byte character header with no data. The FakeTape format is used by the Flex-ES system from Fundamental Software Inc (FSI). The argument specifies the location of the FakeTape file

(for example “ickdsf.fkt”). "FLEX-ES" and "FakeTape" are trademarks of Fundamental Software, Inc.

5.8.5.3 Parameter devaddr

This is the device address.

devtype fakefile

This is the device type. Valid device types are 3410, 3420, 3422, 3430, 3480, 3490, 8809 and 9347.

The filename (and path) of the Fake Tape virtual file or “*”. An asterisk defines an empty tape station. The tape must be manually be loaded on request.

If the filename starts with the “@” character (at sign), the file then describes a list of tape

emulation files to be loaded in succession. The syntax of each line in this file is identical

to the information that can be coded directly after the device type in the overall configuration file. Any emulation file name parameter specified in this file may be substituded by the character “*”, in which case it specifies a set of options to be applied to all additional emulation files specified in the list.

This function emulates an Automatic Cartridge Feeder (ACF. The ACF is a feature on

Cartridge type tape drives (3480, 3490, etc..) that automatically loads a new tape when a

tape is removed from the drive. There is no real control over this device by the host as it

just keeps on feeding tapes one after the other. Although the ACF feature is unique to

cartridge type systems, the emulation accepts the use of the same technique for emulated 1/2 inch tapes reel drives as well.

Hercules Emulator V3.09 – User Reference Guide Page 130

Parameters are appended in succession. In all cases, if the same parameter is coded

more than once, the last instance takes precedence. Therefore it is possible to specify a

set of parameters in the base configuration file, another on an “*” line and another for each individual line in the list of files. Parameters are then appended in that order. A

SCSI tape device should not be given in a file list.

The remaining parameters are described in section 5.8.6 (“Common parameters for AWS, HET and

FakeTape virtual files”).

5.8.5.4 Examples

Example 1:

Define a 3490 tape device on device address 0580. The tape device is an Fake Tape virtual file named

"R0528A.FKT" located in path "/S390/TAPES/".

0580 3490 /S390/TAPES/R0528A.FKT

5.8.6 Common parameters for AWS, HET and Fake Tape virtual files

MAXSIZE=n

This specifies the maximum number of bytes (specified in Bytes) for the emulated file.

This parameter defaults to “0”, meaning there is no limit on the file size.

MAXSIZEK=n This is the same as above but specified in Kilobytes.

MAXSIZEM=n This is the same as above but specified in Megabytes.

EOTMARGIN=n Specifies the number of bytes remaining (before reaching MAXSIZEx) at which point the tape device will signal the presence of the “End-of-Tape” marker, thus allowing the program to switch to the next tape.

READONLY=n Specifies whether the tape is mounted read-only (without a write ring or with the cartridge protect switch set to "write protect"). A parameter of 1 means read-only; a parameter of 0 means read-write. If READONLY=1, RO or NORING is not specified; READONLY=0 is the default. Note that READONLY=0 does not override the host system file permission settings for the underlying AWS or HET file. If the AWS or HET file is marked read-only, the tape will be mounted read-only despite specification of READONLY=0.

RO / NORING Specifies that the tape is mounted read-only (without a write ring or with the cartridge protect switch set to "write protect"). RO and NORING are equivalent to READONLY=1.

RW / RING

Specifies that the tape should be mounted read-write, if possible. RW and RING are equivalent to READONLY=0. This is the default if RO, NORING or READONLY=1 is not specified. Note that RW and RING do not override the host system file permission settings for the underlying AWS or HET file. If the AWS or HET file is marked read-only, the tape will be mounted read-only despite specification of RW or RING.

DEONIRQ=n

Specifies whether a device end is presented if intervention is required during tape motion. A parameter of 1 selects this option; a parameter of 0 turns it off.

NOAUTOMOUNT Indicates that support for guest-initiated automatic tape volume mounting is to always be disabled for this tape device. Automatic guest tape-mount support is automatically globally enabled for all virtual (non-SCSI) tape devices by default whenever an allowable automount directory is defined via the AUTOMOUNT configuration file statement or the automount console command. The NOAUTOMOUNT option allows you to specifically disable such support for a given device.

The automount feature enables software running in guest operating systems to automatically mount, unmount and/or query for themselves the host "virtual tape volume"

Hercules Emulator V3.09 – User Reference Guide Page 131

filename mounted on a tape drive, via the use of special CCW opcodes (0x4B Set

Diagnose and 0xE4 Sense ID) without any intervention on the part of the Hercules operator. An example of such a program for DOS/VSE called TMOUNT is provided in the util subdirectory of the distributed source code.

This is a sticky option. When specified, automount support for the device remains disabled until the option is specifically removed via a devinit command without the option specified. This means if NOAUTOMOUNT is enabled for a device while global automount functionality is currently disabled (because no AUTOMOUNT statement was specified at

Hercules startup), then automount functionality remains disabled for the device even should global automount functionality be later manually enabled via an automount console command.

When the 0x4B Set Diagnose CCW is used to auto-mount a virtual tape volume onto a given tape drive, an absolute (fully-qualified) pathname should normally always be specified, but need not be if a path relative to the currently defined "default allowable" automount directory is used instead.

The default allowable automount directory is always the first "allowable" directory that was defined, or else the current directory if no allowable directories were specifically defined. There is always a default allowable directory whenever any allowable or unallowable automount directories are defined.

Fully-resolved, absolute-full-path filenames are defined as being those which, for Windows, have a ':' (colon) in the second position or, for other host operating systems (e.g.

Linux), have a '/' (slash) in the first position. Paths which start with a '.' (period) are considered relative paths and will always be appended to the currently defined default allowable automount directory, before being resolved into fully-qualified paths by the host system (i.e. only fully-resolved absolute pathnames are used in the performance of the actual automatic tape volume mount).

For example, if more than one allowable automount directory is defined and the volume wishing to be mounted happens to reside in the second one, then a fully-qualified absolute pathname should of course be specified (or else one that is relative to the default directory which happens to resolve to the desired file).

All attempts to automount host files in any defined "disallowable" directory (or any sub directory thereof [or otherwise not within any defined "allowable" directory or subdirectory]) will be rejected. An error message is always issued in such cases, just as one is whenever a successful mount or unmount is performed.

A sample guest automount program called TMOUNT for the DOS/VSE operating system is provided in the "util" subdirectory of the distributed source code.

5.8.7 Basic ACF (Automatic Cartridge Feeder) Support

5.8.7.1 Function

The ACF (Automatic Cartridge Feeder) is a feature on cartridge type tape drives (3480, 3490, etc.) that automatically loads a new tape when a tape is removed (ejected) from the drive. There is no real control over this functionality by the host as the device just keeps on feeding tapes one after the other.

Although the ACF features is unique to catridge type tape systems the emulation accepts to use the same technique for emulated ½ inch tapes reel drives as well. ACF is supported through a file that contains a list of files (emulated tapes or catridges) that will be loaded one after the other.

To manually reset the ACF to the top of the stack the DEVINIT panel command can be used to "reload" the ACF feature.

arguments

These are the same arguments that apply to the AWS, HET, Fake Tape or OMA files, as described above. The arguments are processed in the order in which they appear. Any conflicting argument overrides the previous one.

5.8.7.6 Examples

Example 1:

Define a 3490 Automatic Cartridge Feeder (ACF) on device address 0589. ZLIB compression is turned on. The file "newstack" describes a list of tape emulation files to be loaded in succession. a) Hercules configuration file:

0589 3490 @NEWSTACK COMPRESS=1 b) “NEWSTACK” file:

* MAXSIZEM=16 EOTMARGIN=131072 tape01.aws COMPRESS=0 tape02.het MAXSIZEM=32 EOTMARGIN=65536 tape03.het MAXSIZE=0

The above example is equivalent to issuing the following (one at the start and one after each tape unload): a) in the configuration file:

180 3420 tape01.aws maxsizeM=16 eotmargin=131072 compress=0 b) via devinit panel command: devinit 180 tape02.het compress=1 maxsizeM=32 eotmargin=65536 devinit 180 tape03.het eotmargin=131072 compress=1 maxsize=0

Example 2:

5.9 Channel-to-Channel Adapters

5.9.1 Introduction

The Channel-to-Channel Adapter device statements define CTC adapters to the Hercules configuration.

All of the communications emulation implemented within Hercules use a CTCA (Channel-to-Channel

Adapter) type device. Depending on the type, the CTCA device will provide either a point-to-point or a virtual network adapter interface to the driving system's TCP/IP stack or in the case of CTCT, a true

CTCA connection to another instance of Hercules via a TCP/IP connection.

All current emulations, with the exception of VMNET and CTCT use the Universal TUN/TAP driver on

Linux and TunTap32 (WinPCap) on the Windows platforms which creates a network interface on the driving system which allow Hercules to present frames to, and receive frames from the TCP/IP stack. This network interface is configured on Linux platforms by the hercifc program which is invoked by Hercules after the TUN/TAP device is opened.

The following are the emulation types currently supported:

• CTCI (Channel-to-Channel link to TCP/IP stack)

• CTCT (Channel-to-Channel emulation via TCP Connection)

• LCS

(LAN Channel Station emulation)

• VMNET (Channel-to-Channel link via SLIP/VMNET)

5.9.2 CTCI (Channel-to-Channel link to TCP/IP stack)

5.9.2.1 Function

The CTCI is a point-to-point connection with the TCP/IP stack of the driving system on which Hercules is running.

5.9.2.3 Parameter devaddr

This is the device address.

CTCI

This specifies the device/protocol type.

-n devname

For Linux: Specifies the name of the tunnel device to use. The default is “/dev/net/tun”, which is correct for version 2.4 and above of the Linux kernel.

For Windows: Identifies the host network adapter. If your network adapter does not have a permanent (static) IP address assigned to it (e.g. you use DHCP and have a dynamic

IP assigned) then instead of specifying an IP address as the second parameter in the device statement, you must specify the MAC address of the adapter. In this case the second argument (hostip) must be coded as “0.0.0.0”. This is simply a placeholder because two IP addresses are expected to satisfy the device definition syntax.

--dev devname This is the same as “-n devname”.

-s netmask

This is the netmask to be configured on the link. Note: Since this is a point-to-point link netmask is meaningless from the perspective of the actual network device.

--netmask netmask

This is the same as “-s netmask”.

--m macaddr This is the optional hardware address of the interface in the format of either

“xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx” or “xx-xx-xx-xx-xx-xx”. The default is 00:00:5E:nn:nn:nn where the

nn:nn:nn” part is constructed from the last three octets of the specified guestip.

--macaddr macaddr

This is the same as “-m macaddr”.

Hercules Emulator V3.09 – User Reference Guide Page 136

-t mtu

--mtu mtu

-i ibuff

Linux only: Specifies the maximum transmission unit size (default 1500 bytes).

This is the same as “-t mtu”.

Windows only: This specifies the TunTap32 I/O buffer size in KB. nnnn hast to be between 16 and 1024 (1 MB). The default value is 64 KB.

--ibuff ibuff

This is the same as “-I ibuff”.

-k kbuff

Windows only: This specifies the WinPcap device driver capture buffer size in KB. nnnn hast to be between 64 and 16384 (16 MB). The default value is 1024 (1 MB).

--kbuff kbuff

This is the same as “-k kbuff”.

-d

Specifies that debugging output has to be produced on the Hercules control panel. This should normally be left unspecified.

--debug guestip

This is the same as “-d”.

Specifies the IP address of the guest operating system running under Hercules.

hostip

Identifies the host network adapter to use. If the host system is configured with DHCP this should instead be the MAC address of the ethernet adapter you wish to have Hercules use to connect to the outside world. If this parameter is specified using the -m or --

dev option, then the value here must be specified as "0.0.0.0" to satisfy the statement syntax.

5.9.2.4 Examples

Example 1:

Define 3088 CTC adapters on device addresses 0E20 and 0E21. The device/protocol type is CTCI

(Channel-to-Channel link to Linux TCP/IP stack). The IP address of the guest operating system running under Hercules is 192.168.1.99, the host IP address (the network adapter) to use is 192.168.1.100.

Example 2:

Define 3088 CTC adapters on device addresses 0E20 and 0E21. The device/protocol type is CTCI

(Channel-to-Channel link to Win32 TCP/IP stack). The WinPcap device driver capture buffer has to be set to 2048 KB, the TunTap32 I/O buffer size has to be set to 128 KB. The IP address of the guest operating system running under Hercules is 192.168.1.99 and the MAC address of the network adapter to use is

00-80-B3-E1-DF-69.

5.9.3 CTCT (Channel-to-Channel emulation via TCP Connection)

5.9.3.1 Function

This is an emulated Channel-to-Channel adapter to another Hercules system. CTCT only supports IP traffic and cannot be used to transport NJE, SNA, PVM, etc. type payloads. This may change in the future.

5.9.3.3 Parameter devaddr

This is the device address.

CTCT lport rhost rport bufsize

This specifies the device/protocol type.

Specifies the local TCP port. This is the TCP port that Hercules will listen on for this CTC adapter.

Specifies the remote host. This is the name or IP address of the remote host system that

Hercules is running on, not the name or IP address of the OS running under this instance of Hercules.

Specifies the remote TCP port. The rport parameter on this system must match the lport parameter on the remote system and vice versa.

Specifies the buffer size for the link. If this link is used for IP traffic this parameter should be more than the MTU of the interface definition in the OS TCPIP stack.

5.9.3.4 Examples

Example 1:

Define 3088 CTC adapters on device addresses 0400 and 0401. The device/protocol type is CTCT

5.9.4 LCS (LAN Channel Station)

5.9.4.1 Function

This statement defines an emulated LAN Channel Station adapter. This emulation mode appears to the operating system running in the Hercules machine as an IBM 8232 LCS device, an IBM 2216 router, an

IBM 3172 running ICP (Interconnect Communications Program), the LCS3172 driver of an IBM P/390, or an IBM Open Systems Adapter (OSA).

Hercules Emulator V3.09 – User Reference Guide Page 138

Rather than a point-to-point link, this emulation creates a virtual ethernet adapter through which the guest operating system running in the Hercules machine can communicate. As such, this mode is not limited to

TCP/IP traffic, but in fact will handle any ethernet frame.

5.9.4.3 Parameter devaddr

This is the address pair of the LCS device. This pair must be an even-odd address. This can be specified as two separate LCS statements with a single device address (“0E20

LCS …”) or as a single statement with a device address count (“0E20.2 LCS …”).

LCS

This specifies the LAN Channel Station device/protocol type.

-n devname

Identifies the host network adapter to use:

- On Linux systems this is name of the TUN/TAP special character device, normally

/dev/net/tun.

- On Windows this is either the IP or MAC address of the host systems network card.

TunTap32 will automatically select the first network adapter it finds if the option is omitted, this may be not desirable for some users.

--dev devname This is the same as “-n devname”.

Hercules Emulator V3.09 – User Reference Guide Page 139

-o file

--oat file

file specifies the filename of the Address Translation file. If this option is specified the optional --mac and guestip entries are ignored in preference to statements in the OAT file. For a description of the OAT file see next section.

This is the same as “-o file”.

-m macaddr

macaddr is the optional hardware address of the interface in the format xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx.

If you use the -o/--oat option do not specify an address here, it will be ignored.

--mac macaddr This is the same “-m macaddr”.

-d

--debug guestip

Specifies that debugging output has to be produced on the Hercules control panel. This should normally be left unspecified.

This is the same as “-d”.

This is an optional IP address of the Hercules (guest OS) side. This is only used to establish a point-to-point routing table entry on the driving system. If you use the --oat option do not specify an address here, it will be ignored.

5.9.4.4 OAT File Syntax

The syntax for the Address Translation file is as follows:

*********************************************************

Figure 2: OAT File Syntax

Dev

This is the base device address.

Mode

Port

Entry n.n.n.n

This is the operation mode: IP or SNA. (Note: The SNA operation mode is currently not implemented.

This is the virtual (relative) adapter number.

This applies only for IP Mode and specifies where a packet with an unknown IP address is forwarded. PRI is the primary default entry, SEC is the entry to use when the primary is not available and NO specifies that this is not a default entry.

This specifies the home IP address.

When the operation mode is IP specify only the even (read) device number dev. The odd (write) address will be created automatically. Additionally two other statements can be included in the Address Translation file. These are the HWADD and ROUTE statements.

Hercules Emulator V3.09 – User Reference Guide Page 140

Use the HWADD statement to specify a hardware (MAC) address for a virtual adapter. The first parameter after the HWADD specifies the relative adpater for which the address is applied.

The ROUTE statement is included for convenience. It allows the hercifc program to create a network route for this specific virtual adapter. Please note that it is not necessary to include point-to-point routes for each IP address in the table. This is done automatically by the emulation module.

The read / write devices can be swapped by coding the odd address of the even-odd pair in the OAT. Up to 4 virtual (relative) adapters (00-03) are currently supported.

If no Address Translation file is specified, the emulation module will create the following:

- An ethernet adapter (port 0) for TCP/IP traffic only.

- Two device addresses (devnum and devnum+1).

5.9.4.5 Examples

Example 1:

Define LCS (LAN Channel Station emulation) adapters on device addresses 0440 and 0441. The name of the TUN/TAP special character device is “/dev/net/tun”. The IP address of the Hercules guest OS side is

192.168.200.2.

5.9.5 VMNET (Channel-to-Channel link via SLIP/VMNET)

5.9.5.1 Function

If the emulation mode is not specified on the configuration statement, it is assumed to be a point-to-point link to the driving system's TCP/IP stack using Willem Konynenberg's VMNET package. This provides the same function as the CTCI mode of operation, except that it uses a virtual SLIP interface instead of the

TUN/TAP driver.

5.10 FBA DASD Devices

5.10.1 Function

This device statement is used to define a FBA DASD device to the Hercules configuration. The argument specifies the name of a file which contains the FBA DASD image or the INET address of a Hercules shared device server.

The file consists of fixed length 512-byte records each of which represents one physical block of the emulated disk. To allow access to a minidisk within a full-pack FBA DASD image file two additional arguments (origin and numblks) may be specified after the filename.

5.10.3 Parameter

devaddr devtype

This is the device address.

This is the device type. Valid device types are 3310, 3370, 9332, 9335, 9336 and 0671.

Hercules Emulator V3.09 – User Reference Guide Page 142

filename origin

This specifies the filename (and path) of the file containing the DASD image.

This defines the relative block number within the DASD image file at which the minidisk begins. The number must be less than the number of blocks in the file. The default origin is zero.

numblks

Specifies the number of 512-byte blocks in the minidisk. This number must not exceed the number of blocks in the file minus the origin. If omitted or specified as an asterisk

(“*”), then the minidisk continues to the end of the DASD image file.

shadowfile

The handling of shadow files for FBA devices is identical as that for CCKD devices.

Please refer to the following CCKD section for information regarding the use of the

SF=shadow file option.

SYNCIO

SYNCIO enables possible synchronous I/O and is explained in detail in the following

CKD DASD section.

ipname port

This is the host name or IP adress of the system, where the Hercules shared device server is running.

This is the port number the shared device server is listening on. If omitted the default is

3990.

devnum

COMP=n

Devnum specifies the device number on the shared device server. If omitted the default is the current device number on the local system.

This keyword requests that the data has to be transferred compressed between the client and the server. The argument n specifies the compression level (1-9). A value closer to 1 means less compression but also less processor time to perform the compression. A value closer to 9 means the data is compressed more but also more processor time is required to compress the data.

5.10.4 Examples

Example 1:

Define a 3310 FBA DASD device on device address 0120. The name and path of the file containing the

DASD image is "D:/DASD/TST001.FBA".

0120 3310 D:/DASD/TST001.FBA

Example 2:

Define a 3370 FBA DASD device on device address 0120. The DASD device is attached to a shared device server which is running on a machine with IP address 192.168.200.1 and listening on port 3990.

The device address of the DASD on the shared device server is 0121.

0120 3370 192.168.200.1:3990:0121

Hercules Emulator V3.09 – User Reference Guide Page 143

5.11 CKD DASD Devices

5.11.1 Function

This device statement is used to define a CKD DASD device to the Hercules configuration. The argument specifies the name of a file that contains the CKD DASD image or the INET address of a Hercules shared device server.

The file consists of a 512-byte device header record followed by fixed length track images. The length of each track image depends on the emulated device type and is always rounded up to the next multiple of

512 bytes.

Volumes larger than 2 GB (for example the 3390, model 3) can be supported by spreading the data across more than one file. Each file contains a whole number of cylinders. The first file (which contains cylinders 0-2518 in the case of a 3390) usually has “_1” as the last two characters of its name. The ckddasd driver allocates the remaining files by replacing the last characters of the file name by the characters “_2”, “_3” and so on.

If your operating system supports large file sizes (or 64-bit offsets) then volumes larger than 2GB can be kept in a single file. The two character suffix is not used in this case.

Alternatively the argument may specify the name of a file containg a compressed CKD DASD image

(CCKD DASD files). The CKD driver will automatically detect whether the file contains a regular CKD image or a compressed CKD image.

5.11.3 Parameter

devaddr devtype

This is the device address.

This is the device type. Valid device types are 2311, 2314, 3330, 3350, 3375, 3380, 3390 and 9345.

filename

This specifies the filename (and path) of the file containing the DASD image.

shadowfile

A shadow file contains all the changes made to the emulated DASD device since it was

created, maintained until the next shadow file is created. The moment of the shadow file’s creation can be thought of a snapshot of the current emulated DASD at that time, as if the shadow file is later removed the emulated DASD reverts back to the state it was when the snapshot was taken.

Using shadow files, the base files can be kept on a read-only device like CDROM or can

be defined as read-only thus ensuring that these files can never be corrupted.

The shadow file does not have to actually exist when it is defined in the configuration file.

The shadow operand of the sf= parameter is simply a filename template that will be used

to name the shadow file whenever one is be created. Shadow files are created using the sf+ xxxx or sf+ * commands.

The shadow file name must have a position where the shadow file number will be set.

This is either the character preceeding the last period after the slash or the last character if there is no period. For example: sf=shadows/linux1_*.dsk.

Hercules console commands are provided to add a new shadow file, remove the current

shadow file (with or without backward merge), compress the current shadow file and

display the shadow file status and statistics.

Please note, that the “sf” parameter has to be coded in lowercase letters otherwise an

error message is presented (“HHCDA003E parameter 2 is invalid: SF=…” ).

Details on how to work with shadow files can be found in chapter 7.94 ff.

[NO]SYNCIO

SYNCIO enables possible “synchronous” I/O. This is a DASD I/O feature wherein guest

I/O requests are completed “synchronously” during the actual emulated execution of the

SIO / SSCH (START IO / START SUBCHANNEL) instructions rather than being deferred and executed asynchronously in a separate device I/O thread.

Only I/O which are known to be able to be completed without actually needing to perform any actual host I/O are completed synchronously (e.g. whenever the data being requested is found already be in the cache). If the requested data is not found in the cache then actual host I/O will need to be done and the request is passed to a device I/O thread to be completed asynchronously instead.

SYNCIO is the default for CKD devices. SYNCIO statistics may be displayed via the

Hercules SYNCIO console command. SYNCIO may be abbreviated as SYIO.

Note: If you plan on using SYNCIO with Linux/390 and/or zLinux you might also want to take a look at the IODELAY configuration statement as well.

Hercules Emulator V3.09 – User Reference Guide Page 145

READONLY

READONLY returns “write inhibited” sense when a write is attempted. Note that not all the sense bits may be set absolutely correctly.

FAKEWRITE FAKEWRITE is a workaround for the READONLY sense problem mentioned above. In these cases the disk is not intended to be updated (e.g. MVS updates the DSCB last referenced field for a readonly file) and any writes appear to be successful even though nothing is actually written.

type

Specifies the type of control unit to which this device is attached. The use of this para- meter does not necessarily imply that all functions of the specified control unit are emulated. The purpose is to force a particular control unit type to be indicated in the data returned by SENSE ID and similar CCW's.

Normally the default value is appropriate and this parameter need not to be specified.

Additional to the table below the following values may be specified: 3990-3 and 3990-6.

The default value depends on the device type:

Device Type Default CU Type

2311

2314

3330, 3340, 3350, 3375, 3380

3390

2841

2314

3880

3990

9345 9343

ipname port devnum

COMP=n

Table 6: Default CU Types

This is the host name or IP adress of the system where the Hercules shared device server is running.

This is the port number the shared device server is listening on. If omitted the default is

3990.

Devnum specifies the device number on the shared device server. If omitted the default is the current device number on the local system.

This keyword requests that the data has to be transferred compressed between the client and the server. The argument n specifies the compression level (1-9). A value closer to 1 means less compression but also less processor time to perform the compression. A value closer to 9 means the data is compressed more but also more processor time is required to compress the data.

Two other options LAZYWRITE and FULLTRACKIO have been deprecated. They are still accepted to support compatibility with older configuration files but do nothing. It is strongly recommended to remove these statements from the configuration file.

5.11.4 Examples

Example 2:

Define a 3390 CKD DASD device on device address 0AA2. The name and path of the file containing the

DASD image is "D:/DASD/SARES1.CKD". Synchronous I/O has to be enabled and the device has to return the "write inhibited" sense when a write is attempted.

0AA2 3390 D:/DASD/SARES1.CKD SYNCIO READONLY

Example 3:

Define a 3390 CCKD DASD device on device address 0A00. The name and path of the file containing the

DASD image is "D:/DASD/SARES1.CCKD". All changes to the DASD device have to go to the shadow file(s) "D:/SHADOW/SARES1_*.CCKD".

0A00 3390 D:/DASD/SARES1.CCKD SF=D:/SHADOW/SARES1_*.CCKD

Example 4:

Define a 3390 CKD DASD device on device address 0A8C. The DASD device is attached to a shared device server which is running on a machine with IP address 192.168.200.1 and listening on port 3990.

The device address of the DASD on the shared device server is also 0A8C.

5.12 Communication Lines (Preliminary 2703 BSC Support)

5.12.1 Function

This statement describes a BSC emulation line entry to either link 2 Hercules engines or a custom made program emulating a 2780, 3780 or 3x74, or a custom made program interfacing to a real BSC line.

The communication is emulated over a TCP connection. All bytes are transferred as-is (except for doubling DLE in transparent mode) just as over a real BSC link. Emulated EIA (DCD, DTR, CTS, etc.) or

X.21/V.11 leads (C, T, etc.) are treated differently depending on the DIAL option selected.

The line emulates a point-to-point BSC link. There is no point-to-multipoint handling.

5.12.3 Parameter

RTO

PTO

ETO devaddr devtype

DIAL

LHOST

LPORT

RHOST

This is the device address.

This is the device type. A valid device type is 2703.

This specifies the call direction (if any). If DIAL=NO is specified the TCP outgoing connection is attempted as soon as an ENABLE CCW is executed. Also in this mode, an incoming connection will always be accepted. If DIAL=IN or INOUT is specified a TCP incoming call is accepted only if an ENABLE CCW is currently exectuting on the device.

With DIAL=OUT the ENABLE CCW is rejected. When DIAL=IN or INOUT is coded a

DIAL CCW allows the application to establish a TCP connection to a specific host. For other DIAL values the DIAL CCW is rejected.

Specifies which IP address to listen on. This also conditions the network interface from which incoming calls will be accepted. An asterisk (“*”) means all incoming TCP calls are accepted regardless of the destination IP address or call origin. A given IP address when

DIAL=OUT is specified has no effect.

Specifies the TCP port for which to listen to incoming TCP calls. This value is mandatory for DIAL=IN, DIAL=INOUT or DIAL=NO. It is ignored for DIAL=OUT.

Specifies the remote host to which to direct a TCP connection on a DIAL=NO line when an ENABLE CCW is executed. This value is mandatory when DIAL=NO is specified, It is ignored for other DIAL values.

RPORT

Specifies the remote port to which to direct a TCP connection on a DIAL=NO line when an ENABLE CCW is executed. This value is mandatory when DIAL=NO is specified, It is ignored for other DIAL values.

The following arguments are tuning options. In most cases using the default values will give the best result.

Specifies the number of milliseconds before terminating a read on a timeout when no read termination control character is received. A value of zero means the read ends immediately. “-1” specifies that there is no timeout.

Specifies the number of milliseconds before terminating a POLL on a timeout when no

ACK or NACK sequence is received. A value of zero means the POLL ends immediately.

“-1” specifies that there is no timeout.

Specifies the number of milliseconds before terminating an ENABLE operation on a timeout. The timeout applies when DIAL=NO, DIAL=IN or DIAL=INOUT is specified, the outgoing TCP call fails (DIAL=NO) and there is no previously or currently established

TCP connection for this line. When DIAL=NO is specified the timeout defaults to 10 seconds, for DIAL=IN or DIAL=INOUT, the timeout defaults to “-1”, meaning there is no timeout.

Hercules Emulator V3.09 – User Reference Guide Page 149

5.12.4 Examples

Example 1:

Define 2703 BSC emulation line on device address 0023. The outgoing connection should be attempted as soon as an ENABLE CCW is expected, incoming connections should always be accepted (DIAL=NO).

The IP address to listen on is 127.0.0.1 with port 3780. The remote port to which to direct a TCP connection is 3781.

0023 2703 DIAL=NO LHOST=LOCALHOST LPORT=3780 RPORT=3781

Hercules Emulator V3.09 – User Reference Guide Page 150

6. Hercules Console

6.1 Hercules Hardware Console

Various aspects of Hercules can be controlled with console commands. These commands are entered from the command line of the Hercules hardware management console (HMC).

The Hercules hardware management console window is the panel that is active by default after starting

Hercules. An alternate semi-graphical "New Panel" display showing devices, registers etc. is also available. Pressing the escape key switches between the two panels.

The main Hercules screen contains a scrollable list of messages with a command input area and a system status line at the bottom of the screen. To scroll through the messages, use either the Page Up or

Page Down keys, the Ctrl + Up Arrow or Ctrl + Down Arrow keys, or the Home or End and/or the Ctrl +

Home or Ctrl + End keys.

Important messages are highlighted in a different color (usually red) and are prevented from being scrolled off the screen for two minutes. If Extended Cursor handling is available then important messages currently at the top of the screen can be removed early by moving the cursor to the line containing the message and then pressing enter.

Use the Insert key to switch between insert and overlay mode when typing in the command input area.

Use the Home and End keys to move to the first or last character of the command you are typing, or the use the left/right arrow keys to move to a specific character. Use the Escape key to erase the input area.

When a command is prefixed with '-', the command will not be redisplayed at the console. This can be used in scripts and is also used internally when commands are to be invoked without being redisplayed at the console.

Pressing "Escape" when the command input area is already empty causes the screen to switch to the semi-graphical "New Panel" display mode, which shows the overall status of the system and devices.

When in the semi-graphical "New Panel" display mode there is no command input area. Instead, single character "hot keys" are used to issue some of the more common functions such as starting or stopping the CPU. The hot-keys are those which are highlighted. Pressing the '?' key displays brief help information on how to use the semi-graphical panel.

Sample windows are shown in the pictures on the following pages.

Hercules Emulator V3.09 – User Reference Guide Page 151

Figure 3: Hercules Hardware Console

Hercules Emulator V3.09 – User Reference Guide Page 152

Figure 4: Hercules device and status panel

6.2 Web browser interface

It is not necessary to work directly on the PC where Hercules is running to enter the console commands.

Instead of using the hardware management console on the Hercules server itself it is possible to work from a browser interface in a web browser.

The requirement to be able to work with the web browser interface is a running Hercules HTTP server.

The HTTP server is started through the HTTPPORT and HTTPROOT configuration statements. For details on configuring the HTTP server please see section "System Parameter Descriptions".

Hercules Emulator V3.09 – User Reference Guide Page 153

Once the HTTP server is started, the interface can be used from a web browser on any machine, that has a network connection to the Hercules server. With this interface you can operate Hercules nearly in the same way as you would do locally on the hardware management console.

The following picture shows the main panel of the web browser interface.

Figure 5: Hercules web browser interface

6.3 Using the keyboard

The usage of the keyboard in the Hercules hardware management console is distinguished between normal cursor handling and extended cursor handling.

Hercules Emulator V3.09 – User Reference Guide Page 154

6.3.1 Normal cursor handling

The normal cursor handling is available on all platforms (Windows and Unix).

Table 8: Extended cursor handling

6.4 Log formats

The appearance of the log in terms of prefixing the messages is dependent on the used environment. The most flexible ways of prefixing the messages is given when running Hercules using the WinGUI. Running

Hercules with the native console gives only limited options. The following table show an overview of the log options, depending on the Hercules version used.

Most of the console command examples in this book are made using the WinGUI as described below. In some examples the log options have been reduced to fit one log line into the example boxes in the manual.

6.4.1 Hercules Console

Using Hercules under Linux, Mac OS or Windows (without WinGUI) lets you prefix the consol messages with a timestamp. The difference between these options is shown in the next figure. Switching the option can be done with the logopt console command or can be set at startup time through the logopt system parameter.

Please note that the console itself does not show the timestamp, independent of the logopt settings. Only the hardcopy log does show the timestamp.

Figure 6: Message prefixing using the native Hercules console

6.4.2 Hercules using the WinGUI

Using the WinGUI with the Windows version of Hercules gives you the possibility to prefix all messages with the current date, the current time and the process ID. These prefixing options can be selected individually in the “Format” tab of the "Advanced Logging Options", where they can be separately turned on or off as showed in the next figure.

Hercules Emulator V3.09 – User Reference Guide Page 157

Figure 7: WinGUI Advanced Logging Options

The logopt system parameter or console command has no effect when using the WinGUI. Prefixing the messages is only influenced over the GUI settings. The following figure shows the log messages using all prefixing options (date, time and process ID) as specified above.

7.11 AUTO_SCSI_MOUNT (Automatic SCSI tape mounts)

7.11.1 Function

The AUTO_SCSI_MOUNT command displays or modifies the automatic SCSI tape mount option. When entered without any operands it displays the current value and any pending tape mount requests.

Entering a value between 1 and 99 enables the option and specifies how often (in seconds) to query

SCSI tape drives to automatically detect when a tape has been mounted. When a tape is mounted an unsolicited device attention interrupt will be presented to the guest operating system.

Notes: Enabling this option may negatively impact Hercules performance depending on how the host operating system (Windows, Linux, etc.) processes SCSI attached tape drive status queries.

AUTO_SCSI_MOUNT is a synonym for the SCSIMOUNT command.

No indicates that the AUTO_SCSI_MOUNT option is disabled forcing all SCSI tape mounts to be done manually via an appropriate DEVINIT command.

Yes enables the option and causes periodic queries of the SCSI tape drive in a five second interval to automatically detect when a tape is mounted. YES is equivalent with

“AUTO_SCSI_MOUNT 5”.

A value from 1 to 99 seconds inclusive enables the option and causes periodic queries of the SCSI tape drive to automatically detect when a tape is mounted.

7.16.3 Parameter

HELP

STATS

Display the CCKD help information (CCKD command only).

Display the current CCKD statistics (CCKD command only).

OPTS option

Display the current CCKD options (CCKD command only).

Set a CCKD option. Multiple options may be specified, separated by commas with no intervening blanks.

The CCKD options are:

COMP=n

Specifies the compression type to be used. This overrides the compression used for all

CCKD files. The default (-1) means don’t override the compression. Valid compression types are:

-1 Default

0 None

1 zlib

2 bzip2

COMPPARM=n Overrides the compression parameter. A higher value generally means more compression at the expense of CPU and/or storage. The default (-1) means don’t override the compression parameter. The value of n can be from -1 and 9.

RA=n

Sets the Number of read ahead threads. When sequential track or block group access is detected, some number (RAT=n) of tracks or block groups are queued (RAQ=n) to be read by one of the read ahead threads. The default is 2, the value of n can be a number from 1 to 9.

RAQ=n

Sets the size of the read ahead queue. When sequential track or block group access is detected, some number (RAT=n) of tracks or block groups are queued in the read ahead queue. The default is 4, the value of n can be a number from 0 to 16. A value of zero disables read ahead.

RAT=n

WR=n

Sets the number of tracks or block groups to read ahead when sequential track or block group access is detected. The default is 2, the value of ratn can be a number from 0 to

16. A value of zero disables read ahead.

Sets the number of writer threads. When the cache is flushed, updated cache entries are marked write pending and a writer thread is signalled. The writer thread compresses the track or block group and writes the compressed image to the emulation file.

GCINT=n

A writer thread is CPU-intensive while compressing the track or block group and I/Ointensive while writing the compressed image. The writer thread runs one nicer than the

CPU thread(s). The default is 2, a value from 1 to 9 can be specified

This is the number of seconds the garbage collector thread waits during an interval. At the end of an interval the garbage collector performs space recovery, flushes the cache and optionally ‘fsyncs’ the emulation file. However, the file will not be ‘fsynced’ unless at least 5 seconds have elapsed since the last synchronization (FSYNC). The default is 10 seconds. You can specify a number between 1 and 60.

GCPARM=n

A value affecting the amount of data moved during the garbage collectors space recovery routine. The garbage collector determines an amount of space to move based on the ratio of free space to used space in an emulation file and on the number of free spaces in the file. The garbage collector wants to reduce the free space to used space ratio and the number of free spaces.

Hercules Emulator V3.09 – User Reference Guide Page 193

The value is logarithmic; a value of 8 means moving 2

8

the selected value while a negative value similarly decreases the amount to be moved. Normally, 256K will be moved for a file in an interval. Specifying a value of 8 can increase the amount to 64M. At least 64K will be moved. Specifying a large value (such as 8) may not increase the garbage collection efficiency correspondingly. The default is 0. You can specify a number from -8 to 8.

NOSTRESS=n Indicates whether stress writes will occur or not. A track or block group may be written under stress when a high percentage of the cache is pending write or when a device I/O thread is waiting for a cache entry. When a stressed write occurs, the compression algorithm and/or compression parm may be relaxed, resulting in faster compression but usually a larger compressed image. If NOSTRESS is set to one, then a stressed situation is ignored. You would typically set this value to one when you want create the smallest emulation file possible in exchange for a possible performance degradation. The default is 0. You can specify 0 (enable stressed writes) or 1 (disable stressed writes).

FREEPEND=n Specifies the free pending value for freed space. When a track or block group image is

written, the space it previously occupied is freed. This space will not be available for

future allocations until n garbage collection intervals have completed. In the event of a

catastrophic failure, previously written track or block group images should be recoverable

if the current image has not yet been written to the physical disk. By default the value is

set to -1 which means that if FSYNC is specified then the value is 1 otherwise it is 2. If 0 is specified then freed space is immediately available for new allocations. The default is -

1. You can specify a number from -1 to 4.

FSYNC=n

Enables or disables FSYNC. When FSYNC is enabled then the disk emulation file is synchronized with the physical hard disk at the end of a garbage collection interval (no more often than 5 seconds though). This means that if FREEPEND is non-zero and a catastrophic error occurs, the emulated disks should be recovered coherently. However, FSYNC may cause performance degradation depending on the host operating system and / or the host operating system level. The default is 0 (fsync disabled), you can specify 0 (disable FSYNC) or 1 (enable FSYNC).

TRACE=n

value

Specifies the number of CCKD trace entries. You would normally specify a non-zero when debugging or capturing a problem in CCKD code. When the problem occurs, you should enter the "k" Hercules console command which will print the trace table entries.

The default is 0. You can specify a number between 0 and 200000. Each trace entry represents 128 bytes. Normally, for debugging, it is recommended to use 100000.

LINUXNULL=n If set to 1 then tracks written to 3390 CCKD volumes that were initialized with the -linux option will be checked if they are null (that is if all 12 4096 byte user records contain zeroes). This is used by the DASDCOPY utility. The default is 0.

GCSTART=n If set to 1 then space recovery will become active on any emulated disks that have free space. Normally space recovery will ignore emulated disks until they have been updated.

The default is 0.

Notes:

raq should be at least as large as ra. Read ahead threads are scheduled from entries in the read ahead queue. Likewise rat should not exceed raq because only raq tracks or block groups can be queued at any time.

• The number of writer threads wr should usually be 1 more than the number of host processors.

This is because one writer thread could be CPU-bound (compressing a track or block-group image) and the other could be i/o-bound (writing the compressed image).

• The garbage collection interval governs the maximum time in seconds an updated track or block group image will reside in storage before being written to the emulation file. A large value may mean more data loss if a catastrophic error occurs. A small value may mean that more CPU time is spent compressing images.

Hercules Emulator V3.09 – User Reference Guide Page 194

For example, suppose that a particular image is updated several times each second. If the interval is changed from the default 5 seconds to 1 second, then that image will be compressed and written 5 times more frequently. A large value may cause more cache flushes within a garbage collection interval. These kinds of flushes mean that a read will wait because there are no available cache entries, slowing the emulated operating system. A large value will also cause more pending free space to build up (since free space is flushed each interval). This may mean that the garbage collector space recovery routine will perform more work and the resulting emulation file may be larger.

• Specify fsync=1 and gcint=5 if you are seriously concerned about your data being lost due to a failure. fsync will ensure your data on disk is coherent. However, fsync may cause a noticeable performance degradation. Note that an fsync will not be performed more often than every 5 seconds.

7.22 CONKPALV (Display / alter console TCP/IP keep-alive settings)

7.22.1 Function

The CONKPALV command specifies the tn3270 and telnet client keep-alive option values that control automatic detection of disconnected tn3270 / telnet client sessions.

The arguments idle, intv and count are the new values for the TCP/IP keep-alive settings: Send probe, when the connection goes idle for 'idle' seconds, wait a maximum of 'intv' seconds to the response for the probe and disconnect after 'count' consecutive failed probes.

The CONKPALV command without any operand displays the current values. The format of the CONK-

PALV command must be exactly as shown, with each value separated from the next by a single comma, no intervening spaces and surrounded by parenthesis.

Some older platforms may ignore all of the values specified and may use platform specific values instead.

7.22.3 Parameter

idle intv count

The idle value specifies the timeout value in seconds with no activity until the first keepalive probe is sent. The default for the idle value is 3 seconds.

The intv value specifies the interval in seconds between the probes when no acknowledgement is received from the previous one. The default for the intv value is 1 second.

The count value specifies the number of unacknowledged keep-alive packets sent before the connection is considered to have failed. The default value for the count value is 10.

Note: On Windows platforms the count value is ignored and cannot be changed from its default value of 10.

Hercules Emulator V3.09 – User Reference Guide Page 205

7.22.4 Examples

Example 1:

Set the TCP/IP keep-alive settings to 5 seconds idle time, 3 seconds interval between the probes and disconnect after 15 consecutive failed probes.

7.32 DEVTMAX (Display or set maximum device threads)

The DEVTMAX command displays the current setting of the DEVTMAX system parameter along with the actual device threads statistics. As an additional argument a new value for the maximum device threads may be specified.

7.32.3 Parameter

-1

0

1-n

Specifiy -1 to cause ‘one time only’ temporary threads to be created to service each I/O request to a device. Once the I/O request is complete the thread exits. Subsequent I/Os to the same device will cause another worker thread to be created again.

Specify 0 to cause an unlimited number of ‘semi-permanent’ threads to be created on an

‘as-needed’ basis. With this option a thread is created to service an I/O request for a

device if one does not already exist. When the I/O is complete then the thread enters an idle state waiting for new work. If a new I/O request for the device arrives before the timeout period expires, the existing thread will be reused. The timeout value is currently hard coded at 5 minutes.

Note that this option can cause one thread (or possibly more) to be created for each device in your configuration. Specifying 0 means there is no limit to the number of threads that can be created.

Specifiy a value from 1 to n to set an upper limit to the number of threads that can be

created to service any I/O request to any device. Like the “0” option, each thread, once

done servicing an I/O request enters an idle state. If a new request arrives before the

timeout period expires the thread is reused. If all threads are busy when a new I/O request arrives, a new thread is created only if the specified maximum number of threads have not yet been reached. If the specified maximum number of threads already has been reached then the I/O request is placed in a queue and will be serviced by the first available thread (i.e. whichever thread becomes idle first).

Hercules Emulator V3.09 – User Reference Guide Page 222

This option was created to address a threading issue, possibly related to the Cygwin phtreads implementation on Windows systems. The default for Windows is 8. The default for all other systems is 0.

7.42 HAO (Hercules Automatic Operator)

7.42.1 Function

The Hercules Automatic operator (HAO) feature is a facility that allows to automatically issue console commands in response to certain messages being issued. To use the HAO facility it is necessary to define a rule, consisting of a target and an associated command.

The Hercules Automatic Operator is only for those messages issued by Hercules to its console. It can not be used for messages issued from the guest operating system.

The current implementation limits the total number of defined rules to 64. There is currently no way to define a command whose arguments varies based on actual message text. All of the defined rules are checked for a match each time Hercules issues a message, there is no way at this time to stop the processing of subsequent rules.

00000FC4 the intended operating system. The effect is to reduce control panel message

00000FC4 traffic by selectively suppressing program check trace messages which are

00000FC4 considered normal in the specified environment. 'quiet' suppresses all

00000FC4 exception messages, whereas 'null' suppresses none of them. The other options

00000FC4 suppress some messages and not others depending on the specified o/s.

00000FC4 SEE ALSO the 'pgmtrace' command which allows you to further fine tune

00000FC4 the tracing of program interrupt exceptions.

7.50 IPL (IPL normal from device xxxx)

7.50.1 Function

This console command performs the Initial Program Load (IPL) manual function from the given device.

The IPL command may also be used to perform a load from CD-ROM or server. For example if a standard SUSE S/390 Linux distribution CD is loaded and mounted on /cdrom, this CD-ROM may then be

IPL’ed using ”IPL /cdrom/suse.ins”.

If the first operand is a device name (devnum is a 1- to 4-digit hexadecimal number), a CCW-type IPL is initiated from the indicated device number and SCLP disk I/O is disabled.

If the first operand is a filename a list-directed IPL is performed from the specified ".ins" file and SCLP disk I/O is enabled for the directory path where the ".ins" file is located.

An optional 'PARM' keyword followed by a string can also be passed to the IPL command processor. The string will be loaded into the low-order 32 bits of the general purpose registers (4 characters per register for up to 64 bytes). The PARM option behaves similarly to the VM IPL command.

Figure 91: IPL command

Hercules Emulator V3.09 – User Reference Guide Page 255

7.51 IPLC (IPL clear from device xxxx)

7.51.1 Function

This console command performs the Initial Program Load (IPL) clear manual function from the given device. The IPL command may also be used to perform a load from CD-ROM or server. For example if a standard SUSE S/390 Linux distribution CD is loaded and mounted on /cdrom, this CD-ROM may then be

IPL’ed using ”IPL /cdrom/suse.ins”.

If the first operand is a device name (devnum is a 1- to 4-digit hexadecimal number), a CCW-type IPL is initiated from the indicated device number and SCLP disk I/O is disabled.

If the first operand is a filename a list-directed IPL is performed from the specified ".ins" file and SCLP disk I/O is enabled for the directory path where the ".ins" file is located.

An optional 'PARM' keyword followed by a string can also be passed to the IPL command processor. The string will be loaded into the low-order 32 bits of the general purpose registers (4 characters per register for up to 64 bytes). The PARM option behaves similarly to the VM IPL command.

7.52 K (Display CCKD internal trace)

7.52.1 Function

The K command displays the internal CCKD trace entries. Because the default value for the CCKD trace entries is set to zero, the trace must first be enabled by setting a trace entry value. This can be done either with the system parameter or the console command "CCKD TRACE=n", where n specifies the number of available trace entries and can be in the range of 1 to 200000.

Please note that the K command can produce a lot of messages depending on the available trace entries.

The LOADCORE command allows you to load a binary data file into real storage. This function is used mainly for emulator debugging purposes. A certain core snapshot that was saved can be restored at any later time to reproduce some tests with identical real storage values. The file filename is presumed to be a pure binary image file previously created via the SAVECORE command.

Please note that you must stop all CPUs (see STOP / STOPALL commands) before loading a core image from a file.

7.64 MESSAGE (Display message on console like VM)

7.64.1 Function

The MESSAGE command is actually a VM CP command. It is used to transmit message text to the virtual console of other active users.

However, some programmers also use this command as a simplified way to display messages on the own virtual machine console by using "MESSAGE * <message text>". One program that uses this is the

IBM "System z" port of Solaris which is only capable of running under z/VM.

So basically, all the MESSAGE command does is to display a message on the Hercules console with VM like headers. Therefore the MESSAGE command is not really intended to be used directly from the Hercules console as shown in the example below, although it does not hurt doing so.

MSG is the same as MESSAGE. See also the MSG and MSGNOH commands in this manual.

7.65 MOUNTED_TAPE_REINIT (Control tape initialization)

7.65.1 Function

The MOUNTED_TAPE_REINIT command controls whether reinitialization of tape drive devices via the

DEVINIT command in order to mount a new tape should be allowed if there is already a tape mounted on the drive. Without a parameter given the current setting is displayed.

Specifiying ALLOW indicates that new tapes may be mounted via "DEVINIT nnnn new-tape-filename" irrespective of whether or not there is already a tape mounted on the drive.

Specifying DISALLOW prevents new tapes from being mounted if one is already mounted. Before the new tape can be mounted the existing one has first to be unmounted (via the "DEVINIT nnnn *" command). Otherwise the DEVINIT attempt to mount the new tape is rejected.

This option is meant as a safety mechanism to protect against accidentally unmounting a tape from the wrong device as a result of a simple typing error and thereby eventually cancelling a potentially important tape job.

Please note that for SCSI tape drives the "DEVINIT nnnn *" command has no effect. The tape must be unmounted manually since it is a real physical device and not emulated via a disk file like '.AWS' or '.HET' tapes.

The PTT command sets or displays the internal trace options. When specified with no operands, the PTT command displays the trace options and the contents of the internal trace table.

When specified with operands, the PTT command sets the trace options and/or specifies which events are to be traced. If the last operand is numeric, it sets the size of the trace table and activates the trace.

The following events can be traced:

• error trace

• control trace

• program interrupt trace

• interlock failure trace

• sie trace

• signaling trace

• i/o trace

• timer trace

• thread trace

• logger trace

• lock trace buffer

• timestamp trace entries

7.78 QUIET (Toggle automatic refresh of console display data)

7.78.1 Function

The QUIET command either disables automatic screen refreshing if it is currently enabled or enables it if it is currently disabled. When disabled you will not be able to see the response of any entered commands nor any messages issued by the system nor be able to scroll the display, etc. Basically all screen updating is disabled. Entering 'quiet' again re-enables screen updating.

Please note, that the QUIET command is disabled in the dyngui and therefore is not available when using the Hercules WinGUI.

7.82 RESUME (Resume Hercules)

7.82.1 Function

This command resumes a Hercules session that had been previously suspended with the SUSPEND

command (see section 7.108 for details). The data necessary to resume the session is read from a

packed (zipped) file called “hercules.srf.gz” located in the current configuration directory.

In order for an instance to be resumed HERCULES must be started with a configuration file describing the configuration at suspend time. For example, MAINSIZE and XPNDSIZE must match and all devices present at suspend time must be present at resume time.

Disk devices must be at the same state as they were at suspend time. They can however be a different file type. For example a disk could be a CCKD disk at suspend time then a CKD disk could be created using DASDCOPY and HERCULES resumed using the CKD disk instead.

HERCULES must also be configured similarly as at suspend time. For example if 4 emulated CPUs were active at suspend time then the session cannot be resumed on a HERCULES with a maximum of two

CPUs. Similarly you will not be able to resume a session in z/Architecture mode for a HERCULES that was built without z/Architecture.

After entering the RESUME command on the Hercules console the suspend file is re-imported and the

CPUs are put in the STARTED state again resuming guest program operations at the same point and in the same state as the suspend file was created.

There are some caveats when resuming guest operating system processing:

• As seen by the guest operating system, the TOD clock will appear to jump a large value. Some guests may not cope very well with this. For example some guests may be dismayed because certain interrupts will occur way past its due time. Also for S/370 an interval timer interrupt may be lost if the guest is interrupted for more than half the Interval Timer wrap time (around 8 hours).

• Although some effort has been put in order to make this as transparent as possible (that is, it should appear to the guest operating system that the STOP key was pressed for a large amount of time), some state information may be missed.

Some guest operating systems will fare better if the suspend state is prepared first. For MVS, as an example, it seems to help when a QUIESCE command and a SYSTEM RESTART manual operation are issued prior to suspend the system.

7.84 S (Instruction stepping)

7.84.1 Function

This command sets the instruction stepping and breaking range. The instruction stepping is totally separate from the instruction tracing range (See T command).

A range can be specified. If there is no range then the range includes all addresses. “S 0” eliminates the range and all addresses will be stepped. With or without a given range, the S command displays whether instruction stepping is on or off and the range if any.

The S command by itself does not activate instruction stepping. Use the S+ command to activate instructtion stepping.

The S command has the following syntax:

Hercules Emulator V3.09 – User Reference Guide Page 311

7.85 S+ (Instruction stepping on)

7.85.1 Function

This command turns on the instruction stepping. After turning instruction stepping on, each ENTER from the console allows Hercules to execute exactly one instruction and lists detailed trace information.

The trace information includes the executing CPU, the PSW, the executed instruction in hexadecimal and in disassembled form as well as register hexadecimal displays of all involved register types.

A range can be specified as for the S command, otherwise the existing range is used. If there is no range

(or range was specified as 0) then the range includes all addresses.

When an instruction within the range is about to be executed, the CPU is temporarily stopped and the next instruction is displayed. You may then examine registers and/or storage etc. before you press Enter to execute the instruction and stop at the next instruction. To turn off instruction stepping and continue normal execution enter the G command.

7.93 SCSIMOUNT (Automatic SCSI tape mounts)

7.93.1 Function

The SCSIMOUNT command displays or modifies the automatic SCSI tape mount option. When entered without any operands it displays the current value and any pending tape mount requests. Entering a value between 1 and 99 enables the option and specifies how often (in seconds) to query SCSI tape drives to automatically detect when a tape has been mounted. When a tape is mounted an unsolicited device attention interrupt will be presented to the guest operating system.

Notes: Enabling this option may negatively impact Hercules performance depending on how the host operating system (Windows, Linux, etc.) processes SCSI attached tape drive status queries. SCSI-

MOUNT is a synonym for the AUTO_SCSI_MOUNT command.

No indicates that the SCSIMOUNT option is disabled forcing all SCSI tape mounts to be done manually via an appropriate DEVINIT command.

Yes enables the option and causes periodic queries of the SCSI tape drive in a five second interval to automatically detect when a tape is mounted. YES is equivalent with

“SCSIMOUNT 5”.

A value from 1 to 99 seconds inclusive enables the option and causes periodic queries of the SCSI tape drive to automatically detect when a tape is mounted.

7.95 SF- (Remove a shadow file)

7.95.1 Function

The SF- command removes a shadow file. Depending on the MERGE / NOMERGE / FORCE parameter the changes are incorporated in the base file or discarded.

If MERGE is specified or defaulted then the contents of the current file is merged into the previous file, the current file is removed and the previous file becomes the current file.

If NOMERGE is specified then the contents of the current file is discarded and the previous file becomes the current file. However if the previous file is read-only then a new shadow file is created ("re-added") and that becomes the current file.

The FORCE option is required when doing a merge to a base file and the base file is read-only because the 'ro' option was specified on the device configuration statement.

With an asterisk it is possible to remove a shadow file for all dasd devices that have shadow files.

The MERGE parameter (which is the default) specifies that all changes or updates that have been made to the shadow file will be commited.

NOMERGE

The NOMERGE parameter specifies that all changes or updates that have been made to

the shadow file will be discarded instead of being committed.

FORCE The FORCE parameter is used when doing a merge to a base file that is read-only because the 'ro' option was specified on the device configuration statement.

7.99 SH (Shell command)

7.99.1 Function

The SH command passes the given command and the parameters (if any) as-is to the shell for processsing. The results of the passed command are displayed on the Hercules console.

The special ‘STARTGUI’ command must be used if the command being started either directly or indirectly starts a Windows graphical user interface (non command-line) program (e.g. Notepad). If STARTGUI is not used in such cases then Hercules will hang until the graphical user interface program is closed. Note that starting a batch file (command line program) that itself starts a graphical user interface program still requires using STARTGUI.

If “foo.bat” contains “start notepad.exe” then issuing “sh foo.bat” will hang Hercules until Notepad is being closed. The same applies if “sh start foo.bat” is used. The correct way is using ‘STARTGUI’ for invoking foo.bat is “sh startgui foo.bat”.

7.100.3 Parameter

TRACE n

TRACE, when specified without a decimal number, prints the current contents of the trace table.

This specifies the trace table size (decimal). If the TRACE argument is given with a number then a trace table with a size of n elements initialized.

7.100.4 Examples

Example 1:

Initialize the Shared Device Server trace table with a size of 2500 trace entries.

7.108 SUSPEND (Suspend Hercules)

7.108.1 Function

This command lets you suspend the current Hercules session and shutdown the host machine. Subsequently the suspended session can be resumed (see “RESUME” command). The data necessary to be saved for a later restart is saved in a packed (zipped) file called “hercules.srf.gz” which is located in the current configuration path.

After entering the SUSPEND command the CPUs are put in a stopped state and the contents of the main storage, CPU states, I/O device states and internal Hercules states are dumped onto the “Hercules.srf.gz” file. After the SUSPEND command has finished writing to the suspend file, it schedules an immediate shutdown of Hercules.

Currently device state is only fully saved for CKD disks. Each device class (e.g. TAPE, RDR, PUN, CTC) will need code to save and restore their state. Some states may not be possible to restore (e.g. active

TCP/IP connections at the time of suspend). Currently the vector facility state is not saved, neither is the

ECPSVM state.

The created suspend file is designed to be HERCULES release independent and to be host architecture independent. For example it is possible to take a suspend file created on HERCULES 3.05.0 on an Intel machine and resume on a Sun machine running HERCULES 3.07.0.

Please note that there are some caveats with suspend / resume processing which can affect the guest operating system running under Hercules. These caveats are described in the chapter about RESUME processing (Error! Reference source not found., RESUME).

There are some caveats when suspending and resuming guest operating system processing:

• As seen by the guest operating system, the TOD clock will appear to jump a large value. Some guests may not cope very well with this. For example some guests may be dismayed because certain interrupts will occur way past its due time. Also for S/370 an interval timer interrupt may be lost if the guest is interrupted for more than half the Interval Timer wrap time (around 8 hours).

• Although some effort has been put in order to make this as transparent as possible (that is, it should appear to the guest operating system that the STOP key was pressed for a large amount of time), some state information may be missed.

Some guest operating systems will fare better if the suspend state is prepared first. For MVS, as an example, it seems to help when a QUIESCE command and a SYSTEM RESTART manual operation are issued prior to suspend the system.

7.110 SYSCLEAR (Issue SYSTEM CLEAR RESET manual operation)

7.110.1 Function

The SYSCLEAR command issues a SYSTEM CLEAR RESET manual operation. This is basically the same as the SYSRESET command (see below), but also clears main storage to x'00' . Additionally the general purpose registers, control registers, etc. are reset to their initial value. At this point the system is essentially in the same state as it was just after having been started.

Please note that all CPUs must be stopped prior to issuing a system clear reset or the function will be rejected with message HHCPN053E.

7.112 T (Instruction trace)

7.112.1 Function

This command sets the instruction tracing range. Instruction tracing is totally separate from the instructtion stepping and breaking range. With or without a range the T command displays whether tracing is on or off and the range, if any.

The T command by itself does not activate instruction tracing. Use the T+ command to activate instruction tracing. The command “T 0” eliminates the range (all addresses will be traced).

7.113 T+ (Instruction trace on)

7.113.1 Function

This command turns on instruction tracing. A range can be specified as for the T command. Instruction tracing is totally separate from the instruction stepping and breaking range.

After turning instruction tracing on, every instruction is listed with detailed trace information. The trace information includes the executing CPU, the PSW, the executed instruction in hexadecimal and in disassembled form as well as register hexadecimal displays of all involved register types.

This function is similar to the instruction stepping. The difference between these two function is that with instruction stepping the execution of every instruction has to be initiated by hitting ENTER on the

Hercules console, whereas instruction tracing – once started – traces the instructions without interruption.

Please note that this function will create an enormous amount of output in the Hercules log. Running it on a relatively current machine (3 GHz HT Processor) for 10 seconds creates more than 10 MB of trace data.

7.117 T{+/-} dev (Turn CCW tracing on or off)

7.117.1 Function

This command turns the CCW tracing for a certain device on (T+dev) or turns it off (T-dev). It is possible to trace several devices concurrently. To enable the tracing of more than one device the T+ command must be issued for each device. The traces can be turned off independently of each other.

This function is similar to the CCW stepping described in section 7.88. The difference between these two

function is that with CCW stepping the execution of every CCW has to be initiated by hitting ENTER on the Hercules console, whereas CCW tracing – once started – traces the instructions without interruption.

Please note that the tracing function will create an enormous amount of output in the Hercules log.

7.118 TIMERINT (Display or set timers update interval)

7.118.1 Function

The TIMERINT parameter displays or sets the internal timer update interval in microseconds. This parameter specifies how frequently Hercules's internal timers-update thread updates the TOD clock, CPU

Timer and other architectural related clock and timer values.

The default interval is 50 microseconds which attempts to strike a reasonable balance between clock accuracy and overall host performance.

7.118.3 Parameter

interval

Specifies the timer update interval in microseconds. The minimum allowed value for the interval is 1 microsecond and the maximum is 1'000'000 microseconds (one second).

CAUTION: While a lower TIMERINT value may help increase the accuracy of the guest's

TOD clock and CPU Timer values, it could also have severe negative impact on the overall performance of the host operating system. This is especially true when a low TIMER-

INT value is coupled with a high HERCPRIO and TODPRIO priority setting.

Exercise extreme caution when choosing your desired TIMERINT in relationship to your chosen HERCPRIO and TODPRIO priority settings.

7.120 TODDRAG (Display or set TOD clock drag factor)

7.120.1 Function

The TODDRAG command displays the current setting of the TOD clock drag factor or sets a new value.

This parameter can be used to slow down or speed up the TOD clock by a factor of nn. A significant slowdown can improve the performance of some operating systems which consume large amounts of CPU time processing timer interrupts. A drag factor of 2.0 slows down the clock by 50%, a drag factor of 0.5 doubles the speed of the clock, a drag factor of 1.01 slows down the clock by 1% and 0.99 speeds up the clock by 1%.

8. Hercules Utilities

8.1 Overview

Several utility programs exist to support the Hercules Emulator. Most of them are used when working with

DASD and TAPE files. Other utilites perform some special functions with configuration files.

All these utility programs are pure line-command mode programs (i.e. Windows DOS or Unix/Linux shell).

They can be called manually from the command line prompt or built into batch files. This is generally the preferred method due to its greater flexibility and automation possibilities.

If the Hercules Windows GUI (HercWinGUI) is used the utilities can also be called interactively via the

GUI and using a graphical and menu driven interface.

Device model (Note – this implies size). A list of Hercules supported device types and models can be found in Appendix A.

Volume serial number (1-6 characters).

Number of CKD cylinders or 512-byte FBA sectors (required if model not specified, otherwise optional).

For CKD volumes which exceed 2GB, such as the 3390-3, if the -lfs parameter is not specified the

DASDINIT program will create multiple files by appending the characters _1, _2, _3 etc. to the file name specified on the command line. These characters are inserted before the first dot (.) occurring after the last slash (/). If there is no dot then the characters are appended to the end of the name. Each file contains a whole number of cylinders. Hercules CKD support recognizes the files as belonging to a single logical volume. Specify the full name of just the first file in the Hercules configuration file (e.g.

"filename_1").

The DASDINIT program cannot create FBA volumes exceeding 2GB unless the -lfs parameter is specified and large file size is supported on your platform.

8.11.4 Examples

Example 1:

Create a 3390 Model 3 with volume serial USR001, the file(s) should be named USR001.300 and place them into directory D:\MVS\DASD\. Note that the utility creates actually two files called USR001_1.300 and USR001_2.300 because no large file support is requested.

DASDINIT D:\MVS\DASD\USR001.300 3390-3 USR001

Example 2:

Create the same DASD volume as in the previous example but create just one file (large file suport) named USR001.300 in the same directory.

DASDINIT -lfs D:\MVS\DASD\USR001.300 3390-3 USR001

Example 3:

Create a 3390 Model 3 with volume serial SYS3A0 and alternate cylinder(s), the file should be compressed with ZLIB and the filename has to be TSTVOL.DSD. The DASD volume must be placed in directory D:\MVS\DASD\.

8.12 DASDISUP (Fix XCTL tables in SVCLIB)

8.12.1 Function

The DASDISUP utility fixes the XCTL tables in SVCLIB on OS/360 systems. On an OS/360 system the

OPEN / CLOSE / EOV modules in SYS1.SVCLIB have XCTL tables embedded within them. These tables contain TTRs, pointing to other modules, and these TTRs need to be adjusted after loading SVCLIB to

DASD.

OS/360 provides a program called IEHIOSUP to perform this function, however the issue is that you cannot run IEHIOSUP until you have the system up and running, and you cannot IPL the system until you have fixed the XCTL tables.

To circumvent this problem Hercules provides a utility program called DASDISUP which can be run from the Unix or Windows command line after running DASDLOAD and fixes the XCTL tables.

Note: Do not use this procedure except on OS/360 IPL volumes; other operating systems do not have

XCTL tables.

¬¬¬

¬¬¬

Volser is the volume serial number of the newly created volume.

This specifies the emulated device type (2311, 3330, 3350, 3375, 3380, 3390) of the new volume. FBA device types are not supported by the DASDLOAD program. A list of Hercules supported device types and models can be found in Appendix A.

This specifies the device model. The model implies the size of the volume. A list of

Hercules supported device types and models can be found in Appendix A.

Cyls specifies the size of the new volume in cylinders. If cyls is coded as “*” (asterisk), as

“0” or is omitted, then the deafult size for the device type and model is used. Cylinders is ignored for compressed devices.

An optional parameter specifying the name of a file containing the IPL text which will be written to the volume. The file must be in the form of an object deck containing fixed length 80-byte records in the same format as expected by IBCDASDI or ICKDSF.

XMIT filename

The dataset is loaded from an unloaded PDS created by the

TSO XMIT command.

SEQ filename

EMPTY

DIP

The dataset is loaded from an binary file. ASCII / EBCDIC conversion is not currently supported. Also the DSORG must be

PS or DA and RECFM must either be F or FB.

The dataset is initialized with an end-of-file record (if DSORG is

PS) or is an empty PDS directory (if DSORG is PO).

The dataset is initialized with a LOGREC header record.

units pri sec dir dsorg

CVOL

VTOC filename

The dataset is initialized as an OS SYSCTLG containing the minimum entries needed to IPL an OS/360 system.

Specifies the size and location of the VTOC. A dataset name must be coded on this statement although it is not used. If no

VTOC statement is present, the VTOC will be placed after the last dataset on the volume and the size of the VTOC will be the minimum number of tracks necessary.

This specifies the space allocation units: TRK or CYL.

This is the space allocation primary quantity.

This is the space allocation secondary quantity.

This is the number of directory blocks.

This specifies the dataset organization: PS, PO, DA or IS.

recfm lrecl blksize

This is the record format: F, FB, FBS, V, VB, VBS or U.

This is the logical record length.

This is the block size.

keylen

This is the key length.

All parameters except the dsname and method are optional. Defaults of zero are supplied for DCB parameters. For datasets loaded with the XMIT method the DCB parameters are taken from the unloaded

PDS, minimum space allocation required to load the dataset is used unless a larger quantity is specified.

If space allocation is omitted the default is TRK 1 0 0. If CYL is specified without any primary quantity then the default allocation is 1 cylinder or the minimum number of cylinders required to load the dataset, whichever is larger.

8.21 TAPECOPY (Copy a SCSI tape to or from an AWSTAPE disk file)

8.21.1 Function

The Hercules tape copy program copies a SCSI tape to or from an AWSTAPE disk file. Tapecopy reads a

SCSI tape and outputs an AWSTAPE file representation of the tape, or reads an AWSTAPE file and creates an identical copy of its contents on a tape mounted on a SCSI tape drive.

If the input file is a SCSI tape it is read and processed until physical EOD (end-of-data) is reached. That is, it does not stop whenever multiple tapemarks or filemarks are read, rather it continues processing until the SCSI tape drive says there is no more data on the tape.

The resulting AWSTAPE output disk file may be specified for the filename on a Hercules tape device configuration statement. It can then be used in order for the Hercules guest O/S to read the exact same data without having a SCSI tape drive physically attached to the host system. This allows you to easily transfer

SCSI tape data to other systems that may not have SCSI tape drives attached to them.

The possible return codes and their meaning are:

0 Successful completion.

1 Invalid arguments or no arguments given.

3 Unable to open SCSI tape drive device file.

4 Unable to open AWSTAPE disk file.

5 Unrecoverable I/O error setting variable length block processing for SCSI tape device.

6 Unrecoverable I/O error rewinding SCSI tape device.

7 Unrecoverable I/O error obtaining status of SCSI device.

8 Unrecoverable I/O error reading block header from AWSTAPE disk file.

9 Unrecoverable I/O error reading data block.

10 AWSTAPE block size too large.

11 Unrecoverable I/O error writing tapemark.

12 Unrecoverable I/O error writing block header to AWSTAPE disk file.

13 Unrecoverable I/O error writing data block.

8.22 TAPEMAP (Show information about an AWS tape file)

8.22.1 Function

The TAPEMAP program shows information about an AWS tape. It displays all header data contained on the tape. Please note that the utility does not display the actual contents of the files. Although the

TAPEMAP utility does display the same data as the HETMAP utility, the output is formatted in a totally different way.

TAPEMAP produces correct output only for an AWS format tape. Use of TAPEMAP with any tape format other than AWS produces unpredictable results. Do not use it for HET tapes. The HETMAP program displays information about both AWS and HET tapes, and should be used instead of TAPEMAP.

8.25 FTAPE (SCSI Tape Test Utility)

8.25.1 Function

FTAPE is a command-line utility that allows to easily test the proper functioning of a Windows SCSI attached tape drive to make sure it's working properly before trying to add it to the Hercules device configuration. It supports functions like read and write, random or fixed-sized blocks of random data, fastforward to the next or previous tape mark, back-space and forward-space blocks, write tape marks, locate blocks, etc. It will also display the data block it reads in either ASCII or EBCDIC to examine the data on an already existing tape.

It requires to already have the tape drive properly installed on the Windows system so that Windows can

'see' it (i.e. the SCSI adapter and SCSI tape device drivers are already installed such that device 'Tape0' appears in the Windows device list). When Windows can see the drive and FTAPE can access it, then the drive should be usable by Hercules.

Usually any “true” (non-ASPI) SCSI Tape device driver can be used, regardless of the tape drive model since all SCSI tape devices are required to support a minimum set of SCSI commands. The only exception found is IBM’s device drivers. They are purposely coded to only work with their own tape drives unfortunately.

Also note that while you need to use a non-ASPI driver in order for the drive to work with Hercules, that sometimes the ASPI software that comes with a tape drive also includes a device-driver for the tape drive itself, such that by installing whatever ASPI software may come with the tape drive, the needed non-ASPI device-driver also gets installed. In other words, some ASPI software packages include not only a control

DLL that allows their software to talk to the tape drive via ASPI, but also includes the necessary devicedriver for the tape drive itself.

Further note that FTAPE does not currently support doing any type of I/O to the medium changer device

(i.e. the cartridge loader). It is no problem if the drive has one, it just cannot be directly accessed by

FTAPE or Hercules.

8.26 HercPrt (Remote Hercules Printer Spooler)

8.26.1 Function

HercPrt is a remote Hercules printer spooler written by Fish (David B. Trout), the author of the widely used HercGUI, CTCI-WIN, AWSBrowse and FTAPE packages. HercPrt is designed to receive text output from a Hercules “socket device” (sockdev) line printer and use it to create a disk file on the local Windows system.

Because HercPrt uses standard TCP/IP sockets to communicate with a Hercules line printer, the actual

Hercules system whose line printer output HercPrt is spooling, can be physically located at any place reachable via standard IP networking.

HercPrt supports creation of either plain text files, HTML files, Rich Text Format files (RTF) or Portable

Document Files (PDF) according to the options provided in a “Job Separator Control File”. Several sample job separator control files are provided with the HercPrt package.

The job separator control file tells HercPrt what the Hercules guest operating systems job separator pages look like, so that it can automatically create separate Windows files for each print job, each optionally named according to a choice of job accounting field values extracted directly from the job separator page itself. HercPrt will create these spooled print files in whatever directory you choose using your specified options.

Several HercPrt instances can be run simultaneously, each spooling a different Hercules line printer for either the same instance or a completely different instance of Hercules. The options used for each printer are saved under a user specific printer ID so that the same options can easily be specified the next time

HercPrt is run, by simply selecting the desired printer ID from a provided list of previously defined printer

IDs.

The main dialog user interface is fully resizable and can be completely hidden (minimized) to the system tray area for minimal interference with normal Windows use. Automatic connection and reconnection support (with a user configurable delay between retries) is provided as well as complete control over the display of popup balloon tooltips used to notify the user of either incoming print output or loss of connectivity.

8.26.2 Installation

The installation of HercPrt is beyond the scope of this manual. For detailed instructions on installing

HercPrt on a Windows system please see the Hercules “Installation Guide”.

8.26.3 Hercules Configuration

HercPrt is designed to receive text output from a Hercules “socket device” (sockdev) line printer. In order to use HercPrt with Hercules a “sockdev” printer must first be added to the Hercules configuration.

A Hercules socket printer definition looks similar to the following device definition statement:

000E 1403 192.168.0.100:14031 sockdev

The value ‘192.168.0.100:14031’ is the TCP/IP address and the port number at which the Hercules socket printer will listen for incoming connections. The IP address is typically the IP address of the

Windows system where HercPrt is running on and the port number can be any value from 1024 to 65535.

Note that Hercules socket printers do not support any other options besides “sockdev”, the “clrf” and “noclear” options for example are invalid when defining a socket printer. For details on how to define printers in a Hercules configuration file please see the Hercules “User Reference” manual.

Hercules Emulator V3.09 – User Reference Guide Page 443

When Hercules is powered on the socket printer begins listening for incoming connections on the IP address and port number that are assigned to it. When you start HercPrt you define a printer at the same IP address and the same port number and click the connect button.

HercPrt should then establish a connection to that Hercules printer and immediately begins spooling reports from this printer if any are available.

Whether any reports are available or not on a given printer (as well as how to print them) depends on the guest operating system and associated spooler running under Hercules and is beyond the scope of this manual.

8.26.4 Program Options Page

The following figure shows the first of two available configuration pages from the HercPrt application – the

“Program Options” page.

Figure 228: HercPrt Program Options Page

On the “Program Options” page you can configure the following:

Hercules Emulator V3.09 – User Reference Guide Page 444

Printer ID

IP Address

Port Number

Control File

This field is used to enter a descriptive name for the Hercules printer you are defining. The value can be anything that uniquely identifies the printer being defined. If you already have some printers defined you can select one of these previously defined printers from the dropdown list to automatically populate the remaining controls with the values for the chosen printer.

This must be the IP address where your Hercules printer is listening for incoming connections.

This must be the port number where your Hercules printer is listening for incoming connections.

This is the filename of the “Job Separator Control File” for the printer. The job separator control file defines what your Hercules guest operating system’s job separator pages look like and allows HercPrt to detect where one print job ends and the next print job begins.

This allows HercPrt to break spooled output into separate Windows files, one for each printout, and to name the files using information from the job accounting fields extracted from the print fields on the actual job separator page itself.

Click on the arrow to display a standard Windows file open dialog where you can select the job separator control file you want to use for this printer.

Spooler Dir

Enter here the name of the directory where you want the print files to be placed.

Click on the arrow to display a standard Windows file open dialog where you can select the directory for the print files of this printer.

Check this box to automatically retry a failed connect attempt and to automatically keep retrying to reconnect whenever the connection is unexpectedly lost.

Automatic

Reconnect

Wait Seconds

This is the number of seconds to pause between the time a (re-)connect fails and the time the (re-)connect attempt is tried again. The idea here is not to bombard the

Hercules system with a steady stream of (re-)connect attempts and to wait a short while before trying again to connect.

Stay Hidden

Check this box to automatically hide the dialog once a connection has been made and to remain hidden even during reconnect retries whenever the connection is unexpectedly lost.

Notify Me

Check this box to have the system tray icon automatically display a popup ballon whenever the connection status changes (e.g. connecting, receiving, idle, etc.).

This is the current status of the remote printer connection.

Use this button to either connect to, stop retrying to connect to or disconnect from the specified Hercules printer.

The connect button will be labelled “Connect” if HercPrt is not already connected to a Hercules printer or else will be labelled “Disconnect” if HercPrt is connected to a printer or in the process to connect.

Clicking the button when it is labelled “Disconnect” will immediately disconnect from the specified printer if there is already a connection or else will immediately stop retrying to connect if HercPrt is currently in the process of connecting and “Automatic

Reconnect” is enabled.

8.26.5 PDF Options Page

The next figure shows the second of two available configuration pages from the HercPrt application – the

“PDF Options” page.

Figure 229: HercPrt PDF Options Page

On this page the desired PDF or RTF output formatting options can be specified to update the currently running spooler. The options specified here will be used beginning with the next spooled output.

Hercules Emulator V3.09 – User Reference Guide Page 446

The changes made on this page are only temporary and will be discarded when HercPrt exits or a new control file with different options is opened. To make this changes permanent you must manually edit the job separator control file and enter the changes there.

Please note that the options “Feedholes”, “Compression” and “Columns”, as well as all those related to the “Green Bar” are not supported for RTF but only to PDF files.

Paper Size

This drop down allows to choose one of several predefined paper sizes. The predefined paper sizes are US Fan Fold, US Compact Fan Fold, US Letter, ISO A3,

ISO A4, ISO B4, ISO B4 Extra and ISO C3.

Paper Width

Paper Height

Enter here the desired custom form width in either fractional inches (the default) or whole millimetres. To specify millimetres append ‘mm’ to the size (e.g. ‘210mm’).

Enter here the desired custom form height in either fractional inches (the default) or whole millimetres. To specify millimetres append ‘mm’ to the size (e.g. ‘297mm’).

Green Bar

Feed Holes

Compressed

This dropdown is to select the desired “green bar” colour or a custom colour using the #RRGGBB format. Chose ‘No’ for no green bar or ‘Outline’ for an uncoloured

“transparent” green bar.

Note: The green bar option is ignored for RTF output.

Choose the desired paper orientation, either portrait or landscape.

Orientation

Font Size

Use this dropdown to choose the desired font size from the list of available sizes.

Available font sizes are 9pt, 10pt, 11pt and 12pt. Any size may be used for reports printed at 6 LPI, but the 9pt font size is forced for reports printed at 8 LPI.

The font itself is always “Courier New” and cannot be changed.

Lines per Inch

The default line spacing is 6 lines per inch. If you choose to print your report at 8

LPI then the 9pt font size is forced.

Columns

To squeeze long print lines onto narrow forms or stretch short print lines to fill wider forms enter here the number of columns you want to be able to fit onto your custom sized form.

The recommended default value of zero uses the normal default pitch of 10 characters (columns) per inch.

Note: The columns option is ignored for RTF output.

Horizontal

Margin

Specifies how far from the left edge of the form (not including the feed holes) you wish each print line to start.

When the output is PDF the same value is also used as the right margin and print lines are prevented from printing beond it.

When the output is RTF however, the value is only used as a left margin; the right margin is always set to zero and any print lines which would otherwise extend beyond the far right edge of the form are instead automatically wrapped onto the next line.

Select this option to cause a realistic looking set of tractor-feed holes to be drawn along the left and right sides of the report.

Note: The feed holes option is ignored for RTF output.

thereby reducing the additional disk space the reports would otherwise consume.

Note: The compressed option is ignored for RTF output.

Clicking the “OK” button validates and saves the settings and then automatically hides the dialog. It is the same as clicking the “Apply” button followed by the (x)

“Close” button.

Clicking the “Reset” button causes the changes made on this panel to be discarded, resetting all values back to those defined in the [PDF] section of the job separator control file.

Displays the programs help information.

8.26.6 Help System

Clicking the [?] context sensitive help button turns the mouse cursor into a question mark shaped cursor indicating the system is now in context sensitive help mode.

Once in context sensitive help mode you can the click with the mouse on any of the dialogs controls to cause a popup help balloon tooltip to be displayed containing a brief explanation of the control you clicked on.

To display the full help information for the control instead of just a popup balloon tooltip, then instead of clicking the [?] button first, simply press the F1 key while the control in question has the focus.

8.26.7 Tray Icon Context Menu

The tray icon context menu appears whenever you right click on the HercPrt system tray icon. It has the following options:

Show

Display the main dialog window. This is also the default action whenever the system try icon is double clicked.

Connect

Selecting “Connect” performs the same action as the “Connect” button on the main dialog. It connects to the defined Hercules printer at the specified IP address and port number.

Disconnect

Help

About

Exit

Selecting “Disconnect” performs the same action as the “Disconnect” button on the main dialog. It either disconnects from the Hercules printer or stops trying to reconnect, depending on whether “Automatic Reconnect Retry” is enabled or not.

Opens the applications help file.

Displays the applications “About” dialog, which displays the program version number and copyright information as well as the Software Developments Laboratories support email address used when submitting problem reports.

Selecting “Exit” performs the same action as the “Exit” button on the main dialog. It immediately disconnects from the Hercules printer and exits the program.

Hercules Emulator V3.09 – User Reference Guide Page 448

8.26.8 Job Separator Control File

The “Job Separator Control File” describes the layout of the guest’s job separator page as well as other spooler options. HercPrt uses this control file to be able to decide when the end of the spooled report has been reached as well as how to name the resulting file.

Additionally the control file also contains various options related to how you want your spooled output to look like for those file types whose appearance can be customized (currently limited to Portable

Document Files (PDF) and to a limited degree to Rich Text Format (RTF) files).

HercPrt provides sample control files already configured for three of the most popular Hercules guest operating systems:

Control File Name

DOSVSR23.INI

VM370R6.INI

MVSJES2.INI

Operating System

DOS/VS Release 34

VM/370 Release 6

MVS V3.8J

Table 20: Sample Control Files

The provided samples can either be used as is or can be customized to suit your needs.

8.26.8.1 [Separator] section

The [Separator] section contains the information which defines what your guest's end-of-job or beginningof-job separator page looks like. Each "trigger" defines one line of the separator page, and all of them must match together as a group in order for the page to be considered a job separator page.

For most systems these lines would be those which appear on your guest's end-of-job separator page, not the beginning-of-job separator page, since it is the end-of-job separator page which defines where the current print job ends and thus where the next one begins.

Some operating systems however use a spooler which only outputs beginning-of-job separator pages, making it impossible to know with any degree of certainty when the current print job has ended (except in the special case where another print job immediately follows it; the next print job's beginning-of-job separator would thus also serve to define the end of the previous job). Nevertheless a special format is supported to try and accommodate these unusual spoolers.

8.26.8.1.1 Pages=

The first 'n' value of the "Pages=(n,m)" string specifies the number of consecutively identical end-of-job separator pages there are and defines the number of consecutive times in a row that all triggers must match.

The 'm' value defines the number of additional end-of-job separator pages there are following the identical pages. This parameter is needed to accommodate spoolers such as DOS/VS's POWER/VS spooler those separator pages are not all the same.

For MVS's JES2 spooler (whose separator pages are all the same) you should specify "(2,0)", whereas for DOS/VS's POWER/VS spooler (whose separator pages are not) the value "(2,1)" should be used instead. Both values of course presume the usual two page default. If your guest uses only one separator page then you should of course use (1,0) or (1,1) instead.

Hercules Emulator V3.09 – User Reference Guide Page 449

To accommodate non-standard spoolers such as VM/370 R6 which only output beginning-of-job separator pages but not any end-of-job separator pages (instead it just stops printing!), the

"(n,TIMEOUT=x)" format is used instead.

The first number 'n' defines how many beginning-of-job separator pages to look for, and the 'x' in "TIME-

OUT=x" defines how many seconds after which no more additional spooled output is received should indicate that the end of the print job has been reached.

Using a timeout value like this to indicate when the end of the print job has been reached is a somewhat unreliable way to detect the end of a print job, but without an end-of-job separator page it's the best that can be done for now.

8.26.8.1.2 Triggers=

The "Triggers=" value defines how many trigger lines there are on your separator page. A trigger line is a line that exists on a job separator page that, together with other lines (triggers), identifies the page as a job separator page. The "Triggers=" value defines how many of these lines there are, and thus how many

"[Trigger#]" sections there are following it.

8.26.8.1.3 [Trigger#]

Each "[Trigger#]" section defines one separator page line. The "#" character in each section's name should of course be replaced with the associated trigger number. That is, if there are three lines on your job separator page then you would specify "Triggers=3" and define three "[Trigger#]" sections called

"[Trigger1]", "[Trigger2]" and "[Trigger3]".

8.26.8.1.4 Line=, Column=, Value=

The "Line=" value identifies which line of the separator page contains the text defined by the "Value=" value, and the "Column=" defines at which column of that line the text appears at. All line and column number values are 1-relative. Thus the first line on the page would be line 1 and the letter 'w' in "Hello world!" would be at column 7.

The text defined by "Value=" should be the exact text that appears at that line and column. All value comparisons are case sensitive and must match exactly. Enclose the value within double quotations if it contains any blanks.

There is no minimum or maximum value for the number of triggers you may define, but you should define enough of them to uniquely identify the page as a job separator page to prevent normal report pages from being erroneously detected as job separator pages.

8.26.8.2 [Field Names] section

The [FieldNames] section defines where the job accounting fields appear on your job separator page, thus allowing you to use them in your spooled report's output filename via the [OutputFile] section.

The individual job accounting field values are extracted directly from the separator page's individual print lines based on the values defined in the [FieldNames] section.

8.26.8.2.1 Names=, Name#=

The "Names=" value defines how many job accounting fields are being defined and how many "Name#=" entries immediately follow it. The "#" character in each "Name#=" entry should of course be replaced with the associated field number. For example, if you wish to define three job accounting fields you would specify "Names=3" followed by "Name1=one", "Name2=two" and "Name3=three", where "one", "two" and

"three" are of course the specific job accounting field's unique name.

You can assign whatever name you wish to your defined job accounting fields as long as the name does not contain any blanks and does not match any of the following reserved section names: "FieldNames",

"OutputFile", "PDF", "Separator", "Translations" and "Trigger#".

Hercules Emulator V3.09 – User Reference Guide Page 450

8.26.8.2.2 [fieldname] Line=, Column=, Width=

Each "[fieldname]" sub-section following the primary [FieldNames] section should match one of the field names defined in one of the "Name#=" entries. Note that it is not considered an error if it does not match any of your defined "Name#=" entries. Rather, it will simply never be used. The reverse however is not true. For each field name defined by a "Name#=" entry, a corresponding "[fieldname]" section must exist or it is considered an error.

The "Line=", "Column=" and "Width=" values define where on the page that particular field is located. Just like the "Line=" and "Column=" values of the [Separator] section, the line and column number values are

1-relative. A "Width=" value of 0 is invalid, but a width value of -1 means the field extends through to the end of the print line.

Whenever a job separator page is detected (as defined by the [Separator] section) all job accounting field values are extracted and saved according to the information contained in your [fieldname] sections. All defined job accounting field names are case sensitive and all extracted field values have their leading and trailing blanks removed before being saved.

8.26.8.3 [Output File] section

The [OutputFile] section contains a single "Name=" entry which defines how the job accounting fields must be used to construct the spooled report's filename. Job accounting fields are defined in the

[FieldNames] section and their values are extracted directly from the job separator page and saved for use by the [OutputFile] section's "Name=" entry. Each percent sign enclosed string within the "Name=" value is substituted with one of the defined job accounting field values.

If, for example, have the following job accounting field defined in your [FieldNames] section and the contents of the job separator page’s 58th line happens to be a "Name=" setting of "Job %JOBNAME%.txt" then this would result in the spooled report file being named "Job FOOBAR.txt".

Please note that Windows filenames cannot have any characters in them whose integer representation is within the range of 0 through 31 (i.e. x'00' to x'1F') nor can they contain any of the following reserved characters:

< > : " / \ | * ?

Further note that the length of a file’s complete path specification cannot exceed the standard Windows operating system path length restriction of 260 characters total, so try to limit your output filename to the minimum needed while still ensuring that the resulting names remain different from one another.

After constructing an initial output filename based on your defined "Name=" value (which should be considered only a template), HercPrt then applies further string and character translations as defined in the

[Translations] section before attempting to rename the file to its final name.

If during the construction of the output filename it is detected that a file already exists with that name, then

"-2" is appended to the generated name and that is used instead. If a file with that name already exists then "-3" is appended, and so on, all the way to "-10". If a unique filename still cannot be constructed after trying "-10", then a warning is issued and the file is left with its original Windows assigned temporary filename (e.g. "PRT305.tmp").

The filename extension of your "Name=" value is used to determine what format the spooled file should be created in. If the "Name=" template ends with ".txt" the output file will be in plain text format (the default). If it ends with ".html" then it will be in HTML format, etc. Other supported filename extensions are

".rtf" and ".pdf". If the filename does not end with one of the supported filename extensions (txt, html, htm, rtf or pdf) then the file is created in text format by default.

If the output filename extension is either .rtf or .pdf then additional file formatting options may be specified via the [PDF] section.

8.26.8.4 [Translations] section

The [Translations] section allows you to further customize your output filename by allowing you to define character and string substitutions to take place during output filename construction.

Hercules Emulator V3.09 – User Reference Guide Page 451

8.26.8.4.1 Strings=, Strings#-=, Strings#+=

Each "String#-=" value defines an output filename substring that is to be replaced with the string defined in the corresponding "String#+=" entry (where '#' represents a digit in the range of 1 to n with 'n' being the value defined by the preceding "Strings=" entry).

The "Strings=" value defines how many corresponding "String#-=" or "String#+=" entries there are. The replacement strings defined by the "String#+=" entries do not have to be the same length as the "String#-

=" entry, and may even be empty to cause the substring defined in the "String#-=" entry to be completely removed.

8.26.8.4.2 Chars-=, Chars+=

The "Chars+" value defines the replacement characters which should be used to replace the correspondding characters defined at the same relative position in the "Chars-" value. Each character of the filename generated by the "Names=" entry of the [OutputFile] section matching one of the characters defined in the

"Chars-=" value is replaced with the corresponding character defined at the same relative position in the

"Chars+=" value. There can only be one "Chars-= " and "Chars+=" entry but their string values (which must be the same length) can be as long as you wish.

In this way the "String..." and "Chars..." entries together allow you to define additional output filename transformations to take place during the construction of the final output filename. String replacement is always performed first followed by character replacement second, and a final internal character translation of:

< > : " / \ | * ? to:

{ } . ' - _ ! @ ! is always performed last to ensure that no invalid or illegal characters remain in the final output Windows filename.

8.26.8.5 [PDF] section

The [PDF] section contains options used to define how you wish your output .pdf or .rtf file to be formatted. Please note that while all of the below options are supported for PDF output, not all of them are supported for RTF output.

The options which are not supported for .rtf files are: all of the GreenBar options (e.g. color) as well as the

Feedholes, Compressed and Columns options. All of other PDF options (e.g. paper and font size, etc.) are supported for both PDF and RTF files:

8.26.8.5.1 PaperSize

Predefined "PaperSize=" values are "USFanFold" (default), "USCompactFanFold" (LPI=8), "USLetter",

"ISOA3", "ISOA4", "ISOB4", "ISOB4Extra" and "ISOC3". When a predefined "PaperSize=" value is used then a "PaperWidth=" and "PaperHeight=" value need not be entered. Otherwise define your custom form size via "PaperWidth=" and "PaperHeight=".

8.26.8.5.2 PaperWidth / PaperHeight

"PaperWidth=" and "PaperHeight=" values are expressed in either fractional inches (the default) or whole millimeters. To express a value in millimeters append "mm" to your value (e.g. "297mm").

Note: when defining your form's width do not include the width of the feedholes. The width of the feedholes (0.5 inches on either side of your form) is automatically added to your specified paper width at runtime whenever the "FeedHoles=Yes" option is specified. Your "PaperWidth=" value should always be specified as the actual printable width of your form and should not include the width of the feedholes area.

8.26.8.5.3 Orientation

Specifying "Orientation=Landscape" or "Orientation=Portrait" will swap your specified "PaperWidth=" and

"PaperHeight=" values if necessary in order to match your defined orientation.

Therefore defining "PaperWidth=8.5" and "PaperHeight=11" (or "PaperSize=USLetter") along with "Orientation=Landscape" will cause a paper width of 11 inches and a paper height of 8.5 inches to be used instead.

8.26.8.5.4 HorzMargin

The "HorzMargin=" value specifies how far from the left edge of the form the first character of the print line is. For PDF output the "HorzMargin=" value defines both the left and right margins (the right margin being the end of the print line, i.e. the position past which no character will print). For RTF output however, it defines only the left margin and the right margin is always set to zero. Additionally, for RTF output, print lines that extend beyond the right margin automatically wrap to the next print line whereas for

PDF output they are simply truncated.

The vertical margin at the top of every page is fixed at 0.5 inches and cannot be changed. The first printable line on a page after performing a page eject is therefore always the 4th physical line on the page when printing at 6 lines per inch or the 5th physical line if printing at 8 lines per inch (even though in both cases it is still considered to be line number 1).

The only way to print within the top 0.5 inches of your form is to continue printing beyond the bottom of the previous page such that your print then "overflows" onto the first physical line of the next page. Be aware however that you cannot do this continuously. That is to say your page cannot be of unlimited length. When any page grows to be 500 lines long or longer a page-eject is automatically forced and this behavior cannot be overridden.

Hercules Emulator V3.09 – User Reference Guide Page 453

8.26.8.5.5 FontSize and LPI

"FontSize=" is always specified in typographic "points" (1/72 inches) with the default being 12pt for LPI=6

(Lines Per Inch) and 9pt for LPI=8. When 8 LPI is chosen then 9pt is forced. Valid font sizes are 9pt, 10pt,

11pt or 12pt.

The font that is used is always "Courier New" and cannot be changed.

8.26.8.5.6 Columns

The "Columns=" value should normally be specified as 0 (zero) to ensure a proper default character pitch of 10 characters per inch. Specifying a nonzero "Columns=" value causes all characters on your print line to either be squished or stretched in an effort to try and honor your specified value, usually resulting in a very ugly looking printout.

8.26.8.5.7 GreenBar, FeedHoles and BarColor

The default for "GreenBar=" and "FeedHoles=" is "No". "BarColor=" defaults to "Green". Other valid "Bar-

Color=" values are: "Blue", "Yellow", "Red", "No" or "#rrggbb".

Specifying "BarColor=No" will draw an outlined box around the area where the green bars would normally be, but without being filled in with any background color (i.e. the color of the bar is set to "transparent").

Custom green bar colors can be specified using the "#RRGGBB" html RGB color value format.

8.26.8.5.8 Compression

The “Compress=Yes” option (the default) performs normal ZLIB compression of the actual PDF page data stream in order to conserve Windows host disk space. “Compress=No” should only be used when reporting a problem viewing a HercPrt generated PDF file since such problems are usually the result of an improperly formatted PDF data stream and using ZLIB compression makes it difficult to see the actual PDF codes.

8.26.9 txt2pdf Utility

HercPrt also ships with a command-line tool called "txt2pdf" which will convert a text file into either a PDF or RTF file.

All of the PDF options that can be specified to HercPrt can also be specified to txt2pdf. Note however that just like with HercPrt, when converting text files to RTF files then not all of the PDF options are supported.

The name (and optionally path) of the input “.txt” file to be converted.

The name (and optionally path) of the output “.pdf” or “.rtf” file (see notes).

Green bar paper.

Green Bar color: 'Green' (default), 'Blue', 'Red', 'Yellow', or custom color specified as '#RRGGBB' HTML color value.

No color (i.e. outlined "transparent" green bar).

Feedholes.

Uncompressed PDF output. (Default is compressed).

Columns: 0-255. (Default is 0; see notes).

Notes:

• All PDF options are ignored when the output file is “.rtf” and not “.pdf”.

• The -i switch is required in order to support specifying all options in any order. Options may precede the name of the input file or follow it or both, but the -i switch is required to identify the name of the actual input file.

Hercules Emulator V3.09 – User Reference Guide Page 455

• If -o is not specified the output file is named the same name as the input file but with a .PDF file extension. If you wish convert your file to .RTF instead of .PDF, then you MUST use the -o option to specify an output name ending with the ".RTF" file extension.

• The default paper size is US Standard Fanfold (13.875 x 11). Custom sizes should be specified in fractional inches or whole millimeters. To specify millimeters append 'mm' to your specified size

(e.g. '287mm').

• The top margin size is fixed at 0.5 inches and cannot be changed.

• Do not include the width of the feedholes when specifying your paper width. The width of the feedholes (0.5 inches) is automatically added at runtime.

• The -n option is mutually exclusive with the -c option and overrides it when specified. Both are ignored if the -g option is not also specified.

• If the -# (columns) option is specified then each line is either squished or stretched in an attempt to fit exactly that number of columns of print onto each print line, usually resulting in a very ugly looking report. For best results it is recommended you not specify the -# option, or specify it as '0'

(zero) for the default horizontal pitch of 10 characters per inch.

8.26.9.3 ASA Characters and their ASCII Equivalents

Unless the -a "ASA" option is specified, each line of the text input file that ends with a CR (carriage return) will cause that line to be overlaid with the text from the next one. Each line which ends with a LF

(line feed or "new line" (NL) character) causes a skip to the next line after that line is printed. Skips to new pages only occur whenever a FF (form feed) character is encountered.

If the -a "ASA" option is specified, then each line of the input file is expected to start with an ASA (ANSI) carriage control character which identifies the action to be taken before that line is printed. Lines starting with a '1' cause a skip to the top of a new page before printing the line.

Lines starting with a blank cause a skip to a new line to occur before that line is printed. A '+' causes no spacing to occur thereby causing the line to overlay the previous one. '0' skips two lines before printing and '-' skips three lines before printing:

ASA Character Action to take before printing

1 Advance to next page (Form Feed).

+ Do not advance any lines before printing (overstrike the previous line).

(blank)

0

Advance one line (single spacing).

Advance two lines (double spacing).

- Advance three lines (triple spacing).

8.27 PRTPUB (Mainframe print publishing program)

The mainframe print publishing program is written by Dan Nelson and can be obtained in the file section of the Hercules-390 discussion group ( http://groups.yahoo.com/group/hercules-390 ).

8.27.1 Function

The mainframe print publishing program was designed to be used with Hercules' printing facilities.

Hercules emulates line printers as simple text files containing printed output. This output can be viewed using a text editor or some other mechanism (such as being served via a web server).

This PRTPUB program converts the raw printer output to a more readable form by replacing formfeed characters with line break lines, converting newlines to CR/LF pairs if desired (for Windows viewing), and placing the result in a specified file.

Several facilities are provided to allow for publishing the printed output in an automated way (e.g. to a web server) as follows.

1) You can choose to publish the output only if the input file size has changed since the last time the program was run. The file size is stored in a file for comparison on each run and the program terminates with return code 4 if the input file size has not changed since the last run. This allows efficient mirroring of the printed output to a separate file on a schedule, only updating the target file if the source file has changed. There is also an option that permits the polling for change to be carried out in this program, thus saving the resources that would otherwise be used to launch the program, parse the options, and so forth on each iteration.

2) You can choose to publish only the last part of the printed output. Hercules printer files tend to grow and grow in size and users are typcially only interested in the last part, printed most recently. An option lets you specify the number of lines at the end of the file to publish to the target file, or lets you publish only the new data since the last run.

3) Locking is provided under UNIX type operating systems. As a courtesy this program will acquire an advisory read lock on the entire file before it starts processing. If the emulator uses an advisory write lock then this program can be scheduled to publish the output asynchronously to the emulator producing that output and the result will always be consistent.

4) If you want to publish the output as a web page without using a mechanism like server side includes, this program provides the option of supplying HTML tags to wrap the output, although this facility is only rudimentary. For sophisticated formatting server side includes are likely more appropriate to pull data into a page but this facility may be useful for simple scenarios.

The program should be used in a batch file. It is possible to use it for a single call or to build a loop for continuous processing (see examples below).

The possible return codes and their meaning are:

0

4

8

Translation was done.

Translation was skipped because the file size did not change.

Processing failed for an ordinary reason. An error message is sent to stderr indicating why.

16 Processing failed due to some abnormality. An abend code is given for diagnostic purposes. This code will be the source line where the error occurred so you can use it with the source listing to diagnose the cause of the failure.

8.27.3 Parameter

The program takes a single long argument which must not contain spaces. If the file paths (on Windows) contain spaces then the entire argument must be enclosed in quotes. No spaces are allowed anywhere else, whether or not quotes are used. If quotes are used then they are only permitted as the first and last characters of the argument string.

The argument is divided into subparameters separated by commas. All parameters are positional, if they are omitted a comma must mark their place.

inputfile

outputfile

sizefile interval

The file containing the emulated mainframe output.

The file to which the result is to be published.

The file containing the input file's size at the time of the previous run. If specified, this file

is used to track the size of the input file, only publishing when it changes. The file will

generally not exist the first time it is specified. In that case, the publishing is done and

the file is written for use in subsequent runs. The file contains a number in binary form. It

cannot be directly edited. If this parameter is not specified then the publishing is always done regardless of the file's size.

The polling interval for use with the size file. If this argument is specified it must be a

positive integer and it indicates a number of seconds between file size checks. In this

mode if the input file's size has not changed since the last invocation (based on the size

stored in the size file), the program goes into polling mode where it continually checks the

size every interval seconds until a change is detected and then continues processing. If

Hercules Emulator V3.09 – User Reference Guide Page 461

taillines

CRLF

HTML

NOPB

this argument is not given the default behavior is to return with a return code of 4 when

the input file's size has not changed. Using this argument can improve the efficiency of

simple polling in cases where nothing else is to be done on each polling interval. This is because it does not require the program to be invoked, arguments to be processed etc., on each polling interval. If no size file is specified this argument is checked for syntax but

otherwise ignored.

The number of lines that should be published. If the input file contains more than the

given number of lines then only the last <tail lines> lines are published. If this parameter is not specified the entire file is published. This number gives the number of printed lines

published, including page separators. Note that the number may be off by one in either

direction. If the final character of the file is a formfeed then a trailing page separator is always output, which can add an extra line in some cases. By the same token if the tail is

broken on a formfeed character then the entire formfeed, which counts as two line breaks, is skipped, resulting in one fewer line of output. If this argument is 'ONLY' (in all caps) then the size file must also be specified. In that case the program translates only the part of the printer file that is new since the prior invocation, unless the new size is smaller than the old size, in which case the whole file is translated. The purpose of this feature is to allow this program to be used as a sort of spool writer in conjunction with scripts that do something interesting with the incremental output, such as print it to a printer. In this mode empty output files are not produced. If the output is zero length and

ONLY is specified, the program terminates with a return code of 4.

If specified then all linefeeds in the source file are translated to CR/LF pairs and CR/LF is used as the terminator for the page break line. If not specified no linefeed translation is done and the page break line is terminated with a newline character. This parameter is case sensitive (must be uppercase).

If specified then HTML tags are added to the published output file. The file begins with

<HTML><PRE> and ends with </PRE></HTML>. This parameter is case sensitive (must be uppercase).

If specified then formfeed characters are not translated to page break lines. This is useful

primarily for processing the published data after it is published, e.g. sending it to a real printer, etc. This argument must be in upper case. When NOPB is specified formfeed characters are still bracketed with newlines to keep the maximum output record size consistent.

8.27.4 Examples

Example 1:

Publish the print output from print file PRT1.TXT and create a Word document named PRT1.DOC with carriage return/line feeds and do not translate formfeed characters to page break lines.

Example 3:

Publish the print output from print file PRT00E.TXT and create a HTML file called PUBL.HTML with carriage retun/line feeds. The input file's size at the time of the previous run should be kept in file

PRT00E.SIZ. The polling interval to check the file size is 10 seconds. The maximum number of lines that should be published is 1000.

8.28 AWSSL (AWS virtual tape)

AWSSL is written by Reed H. Petty and is available on the CBT MVS Utilities Tape

(CBTTAPE) at www.cbttape.org

(File #585).

8.28.1 Function

AWSSL moves MVS (OS390, etc) datasets directly to/from AWS (and HET) virtual tape files. AWSSL strives to maintain compatibility with other AWS/HET utilities including AWSUTIL, VTTS, HETUTL and the

Hercules Emulator.

AWSSL creates AWS and HET format virtual tapes which contain one to many datasets of any record format, with or without standard labels. The program will also retrieve datasets from AWS/HET files of any record format with the exception of spanned blocks. The retrieved datasets may be reblocked if necessary. If DCB attributes are omitted on the receiving dataset and if standard labels are present within the AWS structure, then the DCB attributes of the receiving dataset will be defaulted to those within the

HDR1 label.

8.28.2 Input Parameter

All input parameters are taken from control statements supplied by the AWSCNTL DD statement. The statements consist of a major function to be performed (i.e. TAPEVOL, EXPORT, etc.), and keywords which supply values to that function.

Control statement keywords may be continued to as many records as necessary. Continued statements are indicated by the last keyword argument suffixed with a comma and additional keywords on the next record. Additional keywords must not begin in column one.

8.28.3 AWSVOL Control Statement

The AWSVOL control statement supplies characteristics of the virtual tape volume including volume serial number, owner and compression. AWSVOL must be the first control statement specified.

8.28.5 AWSPUT Control Statement

The AWSPUT control statement causes a dataset to be copied into the AWS or HET virtual tape file.

Multiple AWSPUT statements may be specified. A set of standard labels are produced as each statement is processed.

If necessary the dataset is staged into a temporary dynamically allocated dataset prior to insertion into the virtual tape.

The AWS or HET virtual tape output file may specify any DCB attributes that are meaningful in the users environment:

RECFM=V Variable length output, LRECL and BLKSIZE as specified. The records are in a format consistent with that produced by AWSUTIL.

RECFM=F

RECFM=U

Fixed length output, LRECL and BLKSIZE as specified. The records are in a format consistent with that produced by the VTTS family of utilities.

Undefined length output, BLKSIZE as specified. The records are written in an aggregated BLKSIZE length block. Note: This is the preferred method when the virtual tape is to be transported to other environments such as Hercules.

8.29 AWSUTIL (AWS format tape file generation utility)

AWSUTIL is written by Brandon Hill and is available on the CBT MVS Utilities Tape

(CBTTAPE) at www.cbttape.org

(File #477).

8.29.1 Function

AWSUTIL is a comprehensive program for creating AWS format virtual tape files. The program can generate labels and write tape marks. Any dataset that can be accessed by BSAM can be copied to a virtual tape file. Any real tape device can have either a single file or the entire tape copied.

The commands for the utility are read from the SYSIN DD statement and status and errors are written to the SYSPRINT DD statement. The AWS tape image is written to SYSOUT as a VB file. This file is then suitable to be copied with FTP in binary mode to any other system.

Any number of DD statements representing sequential data and tapes can be specified and are read via the appropriate statement in SYSIN.

8.29.2 Control Statements

AWSUTIL supports these SYSIN control statements:

READ ddname

GET ddname

Perform BSAM read from ddname and convert each block to AWS tape format.

This works on whatever BSAM will read. The maximum BLKSIZE is 32760.

Perform QSAM read from ddname and convert each block to AWS tape format.

This works on whatever QBSAM will read. The maximum BLKSIZE is 32760.

TAPEFILE ddname Perform EXCP read from a real tape device and convert each block to AWS

TAPE format. Only works on a tape device. Maximum BLKSIZE is 65535. This command stops reading when a tape mark is read. Therefore only the current tape file is processed. If BLP were used only the tape headers would be processed.

TAPEALL ddname Perform EXCP read from a real tape device and convert each block to AWS

TAPE format. Only works on a tape device. Maximum BLKSIZE is 65535. This command rewinds the tape and reads until an error condition is returned. This effectively copies the entire contents of the tape. BLP is not necessary as a rewind command is sent before the tape is read. Tape marks are duplicated as they are encountered. NOTE: Because end of reel reflectors are rarely effective this command can run a tape off the reel on a 3420 type drive. 3480/3490/3590 type drives have better stopping mechanisms.

Write a tape mark to the output file. This is usually used to separate individual files on a tape. Two consecutive tape marks sometimes signals the end of the tape.

Print a message after each command verifying that the command was executed ok. This merely prints a message. It has no effect on the integrity of the data.

Because SYSOUT should be directed to disk there should be no data integrity problems anyway.

All subsequent labels generated are converted to ASCII before they are written.

This only affects labels. All data is copied exactly as it is read no matter the setting of this command.

All subsequent labels generated are not to be converted before they are written.

The implication is that the data is still in EBCDIC format. This only affects labels.

All data is copied exactly as it is read no matter the setting of this command.

These commands write 80 byte labels to the tape image. The format of the labels is controlled by the ASCII and EBCDIC commands. Except for the first 4 bytes of each input line none of the data is checked to make sure it is a valid tape label. It is up to the user to provide correctly formatted labels as desired. Essentially the entire 80 byte input record is written to the AWS TAPE image as is (or converted to ASCII if this flag is set).

8.30 RAWSTAPE (Reverse AWSTAPE utility)

The RAWSTAPE program is written by Jan Jaeger and is available on the CBT MVS Utilities Tape

(CBTTAPE) at www.cbttape.org

(File #478).

8.30.1 Function

The RAWSTAPE utility converts an AWSTAPE file back to a blocked OS dataset such that the original blocking is restored. As an AWSTAPE file does not contain DCB parameters this utility will not restore the original DCB parameters, these will have to be added manually with a utility such as IEBGENER.

Upload the AWSTAPE file to OS/390 or z/OS in binary format, do not use CR/LF or any other blocking feature when doing the file transfer. The file must be uploaded to a RECFM=U dataset, either preallocated or allocated using IND$FILE. BLKSIZE=4096 is reasonable but any other blocksize will work also.

An AWS tape file can consist of more then 1 file and as such the filenumber of the tape must be specified.

This filenumber is equal to the value used when reading a tape with bypass label processing (BLP). Thus, on a labeled tape file 1 will always be the VOL1 record.

Run RAWSTAPE with SYSUT1 pointing to AWS input file and SYSUT2 to the output file, for example copying a standalone dump tape.

8.30.2 Examples

The following example copies an AWS tape format dataset back to a blocked OS dataset:

//CONVERT EXEC PGM=RAWSTAPE,PARM=3

//STEPLIB DD DSN=IBMUSER.LOAD,DISP=SHR

//SYSUDUMP DD SYSOUT=*

//SYSUT1 DD DISP=SHR,DSN=IBMUSER.SADUMP.AWS

//SYSUT2 DD DSN=IBMUSER.SADUMP,DISP=(NEW,CATLG),

// UNIT=SYSALLDA,SPACE=(TRK,1200,RLSE)

Figure 235: RAWSTAPE utility JCL

After the previous example the IBMUSER.SADUMP contains the correct data but still has invalid DCB parameters in the DSCB, these can be corrected with IEBGENER as following:

//SETDCB EXEC PGM=IEBGENER

//SYSPRINT DD SYSOUT=*

//SYSIN DD DUMMY

//SYSUT1 DD DUMMY,DCB=(DSORG=PS,RECFM=FBS,LRECL=4160,BLKSIZE=29120)

8.31 VTTS (Virtual tape transportation system)

The programs presented in this section are part of the VTTS (Virtual tape transportation system) and are copyrighted and owned by Sam Golob, however the programs on CBTTAPE File #533 can be used freely. The CBT MVS Utilities Tape

(CBTTAPE) can be found at www.cbttape.org

.

File #533 of the CBT tape contains the following programs:

• VTT2DISK

• VTT2TAPE

• VTT2CNVU

• VTT2FK2T

• VTT2T2FK

8.31.1 Function

The VTT2TAPE program converts AWS-format tape files to real tapes, while the VTT2DISK program creates an AWS-format virtual tape file from a real tape. The VTT2CNVU program converts a VB-format

AWS-format tape (such as the one produced by the AWSUTIL program) to FB-80 format on MVS so that

VTT2TAPE can be used subsequently to convert the data to a real tape.

The VTT2T2FK program is similar to VTT2DISK except that a real tape is converted to a FAKETAPE (tm) format tape (see below). VTT2FK2T is similar to VTT2TAPE except that a FAKETAPE tape image, folded over on MVS into FB-80 format, is converted into a real tape. Unless otherwise mentioned AWS-format virtual tape files on an MVS system have been folded over into fixed blocked 80-byte record format.

AWS-format files on other systems are just long strings of data.

The FAKETAPE file format is a published interface of Fundamental Software Inc. Fundamental Software reserves the right to change the format at any time. FAKETAPE and FLEX-ES are registered trademarks of Fundamental Software Inc.

The AWS Tape format is produced by IBM's P/390 and Hercules systems to create disk files which an

MVS system reads and writes as if they were actual tapes. Another name for these disk files is "virtual tapes", as the MVS system looking at these files "thinks" that they really are tapes.

There are programs like AWSUTIL which can read real tapes and create virtual tapes from them. These virtual tapes can be loaded on a Hercules system somewhere and be read as a tape.

VTT2DISK performs this function also, by reading a real tape and producing an FB-80 folded AWS-format tape as an MVS disk file. While reading the tape the VTT2DISK program produces a lot of statistics about the tape. The advantage of the VTT2DISK program is that it can be run on mainframe-based MVS systems that cannot normally produce AWS-format virtual tapes.

Another issue is encountered when transferring data in the other direction. Suppose you have an MVS system that cannot read a tape in AWS format. Most MVS systems which are not P/390 or Hercules machines are in this position. For these you have to convert an AWS virtual tape disk file to some format that the MVS system can convert into a REAL tape. That is the purpose of the VTT2TAPE program.

8.31.2 Control Statements

The VTT2DISK program allows the following keywords via the SYSIN DD Statement:

CHUNKSIZE=nnnn

NEWVOL=volser

READ

Specifies the chunksize. Any chunksize up to the limit of 65535 bytes is allowed. If not specified the default is 65535 bytes.

This keyword changes the VOLSER on VOL1 label to volser.

The READ keyword produces a read only run, no AWSOUT is created.

Hercules Emulator V3.09 – User Reference Guide Page 472

IDRCOFF

This keyword turns off the "data is compressed" indicators in the tape labels.

9. Shared Device Support

9.1 Basics

Shared Device Support (see also "General Information" manual) allows multiple Hercules instances to share devices. The device will be local to one Hercules instance and remote to all other Hercules instances. The local instance is the server for that device and the remote instances are the clients. It is possible that each instance acts as both a client and a server. If a local instance declares a device as remote on another instance and on this remote instance the device is defined again as remote on a third instance, then the original instance will have to hop through this second instance to get to the real device.

It is not necessary to IPL an operating system on the device server. Any number of Hercules instances can act as a server in a "HERCPLEX".

When "SHRDPORT" is specified in the Hercules configuration the thread "shared_server" is started at the end of Hercules initialization. If Shared Device Support is requested on a device statement then the Hercules instances cannot initialize these devices until the server is started on each system. In this case the device trying to access a server gets the 'connecting' bit set on in the DEVBLK and the device still needs to initialize. After the shared server is started a thread is attached for each device that is connecting to complete the connection (the device init handler).

9.2 Caching

Cached records (i.e. CKD tracks or FBA blocks) are kept independently on both the client and server sides. Whenever the client issues a START request to initiate a channel program, the server will return a list of records to purge from the clients cache. These will have been updated by other clients since the last START request. If the list is too large the server will indicate that the client should purge all records for the device.

9.3 Compression

Data that would normally be transferred uncompressed between the client and the host can optionally be compressed by specifiying the "COMP=n" keyword on the device configuration statement (see below) or on the attach command. The value n of the "COMP=n" keyword is the zlib compression parameter which must be a number between 1 and 9. A value closer to 1 means less compression but less processor time to perform the compression. A value closer to 9 means the data is compressed more but also more processor time is required to compress the data.

If the server is on localhost then you should not specify compression. Otherwise you are just stealing processor time from Hercules to facilitate compression/decompression. If the server is on a local network then a low value such as 1, 2 or 3 is recommended. There is a tradeoff curve, attempting to trade CPU cycles for network traffic to derive an optimal throughput.

If the devices on the server are compressed devices (i.e. CCKD or CFBA) then the records (track images or block groups) may be transferred compressed regardless of the "COMP=n" settings. This depends on whether the client supports the compression type (zlib or bzip2) of the record on the server and whether the record is actually compressed in the server cache.

An example may help to explain this: Suppose on the client that you execute one or more channel programs to read a record on a CKD track, update a record on the same track, and then read another (or the same) record on the track. For the first read the server will read the track image and pass it to the client as it was originally compressed in the file. To update a portion of the track image the server must uncompress the track image so data in it can be updated. When the client next reads from the track image the track image is uncompressed.

Hercules Emulator V3.09 – User Reference Guide Page 475

Specifiying "COMP=n" means that uncompressed data sent to the client will be compressed. If the data to be sent to the client is already compressed then the data is sent as is unless the client has indicated that it does not support that compression algorithm.

9.4 Usage of Shared Devices

To use a device on a remote Hercules instance, instead of specifying a file name on the device statement, an IP address or a DNS name is specified.

¬¬¬

:rem devnum

¬¬¬¯ ¬¬¬ COMP= n

¬¬¬¯

9.4.2 Parameter

loc_devnum

This specifies the device address on the local Hercules instance.

devtype This is the device type.

host

port

This specifies the host name or the IP address of the system where the Shared Device

Server is running.

The port number on which the Shared Device Server is listening. If the port number is omitted then the default port (3990) is used.

rem_devnum This is the device address of the device on the remote Hercules instance. If the remote device address is omitted then the default is the current device number on the local system.

COMP=n This keyword requests that the data has to be transferred compressed between the client and the server. The argument n specifies the compression level (1-9). A value closer to 1 means less compression but also less processor time to perform the compression. A value closer to 9 means the data is compressed more but also more processor time is required to compress the data.

Hercules Emulator V3.09 – User Reference Guide Page 476

9.4.3 Examples

Example 1:

There is a shared device server on the local host listening on port 3990 and we want to use its 0100 device as our 0100 device. The device statement will look like this:

0100 3390 localhost:3990:0100

Because the default port number is actually 3990 and the default remote device address is the same as the local device number the above statement (providing we do not have actually a file named 'localhost' ) could be shortened as follows:

0100 3390 localhost

Example 2:

Device sharing can also be split between multiple instances. For example, suppose the following device definitions and system parameter for instance A:

SHRDPORT 3990

0100 3390 localhost:3991

0101 3390 mvscat.dasd

And for instance B we have the following device definitions and system parameter:

SHRDPORT 3991

0100 3390 mvsres.dasd

0101 3390 localhost

In this case each instance acts as both a client and a server. Both instances of Hercules are running on the same machine.

The above examples may be clearer if we specify also all the default values. To show this the same configuration is used but in this case the Hercules instances are running on separate physical machines:

Hercules instance A (machine IP 192.168.200.1):

SHRDPORT 3990

0100 3390 192.168.200.2:3991:0100 # Remote on 192.168.200.2 (mvsres.dasd)

0101 3390 mvscat.dasd # Local on 192.168.200.1 (mvscat.dasd)

Hercules instance B (machine IP 192.168.200.2):

SHRDPORT 3991

0100 3390 mvsres.dasd # Local on 192.168.200.2 (mvsres.dasd)

0101 3390 192.168.200.1:3990:0101 # Remote on 192.168.200.1 (mvscat.dasd)

10. Hercules 3270 Logo

10.1 Function

The Hercules 3270 logo is the initial welcome screen that is presented when a 3270 terminal connects to a Hercules 3270 device. While in previous releases of Hercules this logo screen was hardcoded it can now be customized.

The customized logo is stored in a plain text file which contains positioning orders, attributes and supports variable substitutions. Each line in the text file represents either an order statement or a plain text line. If no logo file is specified then Hercules uses a built-in default logo. Upon startup Hercules will first look in the current directory for a file called "herclogo.txt". The name of the logo file can also be specified as a startup option by using the "-b" flag. The file may also be specified using the "LOGOFILE" configuration statement or can be changed during Hercules operation using the "HERCLOGO" console command.

10.2 Orders

Order commands are used to set the current buffer position, set the highlight and/or protected attributes, to force a skip to a new line and to specifiy text alignment.

11.1.2 Parameter

-f configfile

This is the name of the configuration file. If the filename is not specified the default is

HERCULES.CNF. The name of the default configuration file may be overriden via the

'HERCULES_CNF' environment variable.

-d

-b logofile

Specifies that Hercules is to be run in “daemon” mode, wherein it runs invisibly with no attached console.

Specifies the name of a customized logo text file in the current Hercules directory (for

details on how to customize a logofile see chapter 10).

-p dyndir

-l dynmod

This is the directory from which dynamic modules are to be loaded. The default depends on the host platform on which Hercules is being run. This option overrides the default.

This is the name of an additional dynamic load module to be loaded at startup. More than one additional module may be specified, although each must be preceded with the “-l” option.

Hercules Emulator V3.09 – User Reference Guide Page 483

>logfile

This is an optional log file which will receive a copy of all messages displayed on the control panel.

11.1.3 Examples

Example 1:

Start Hercules with the configuration file “D:\MVS\CONF\MVS38J.CONF” and write all messages to the log file “D:\MVS\LOGS\HERCULES.LOG”.

HERCULES -f D:\MVS\CONF\MVS38J.CONF >D:\MVS\LOGS\HERCULES.LOG

Example 2:

11.3.2 Parameter

-f configfile

This is the name of a configuration file. If the Hercules Studio is started with the name of a configuration file then it will automatically “power on” Hercules once the Hercules Studio itself is started. This is called the “Auto-Power-On” feature. When using this feature in conjunction with a Hercules “.RC” (run-commands) file it is possible to totally automate

Hercules startup and IPL.

Hercules Emulator V3.09 – User Reference Guide Page 485

-f rcfile

This is the name of an optional RC (run-commands) file. This file contains Hercules console commands that are issued exactly as if the commands were entered from the

Hercules system console.

11.3.3 Examples

Example 1:

Start Hercules Studio using the configuration file “mvs38j.cnf” and the run-commands file "autoipl.rc".

HerculesStudio -f mvs38j.cnf –r autoipl.rc

Hercules Emulator V3.09 – User Reference Guide Page 486

12. The Run-Commands File (hercules.rc)

12.1 Function

Hercules supports the ability to have console commands automatically executed at startup via the 'runcommands' file. If the run-commands file is found to exist when Hercules starts then each line of the file is read and interpreted as a console command, exactly as if the command were entered from the HMC system console.

The default filename for the run-commands file is "hercules.rc". The default name may be overridden by setting the "HERCULES_RC" environment variable.

Except for the 'pause' command (see below), each command read from the run-commands file is logged to the console preceded by a “>”' (greater-than sign) character. Thus you can easily distinguish between console commands entered from the keyboard from those entered via the run-commands file.

Comment lines starting with '#' are treated as "silent comments" and are thus not logged to the console whereas comment lines starting with '*' are treated as "loud comments" and will be logged.

12.2 Run-Commands File Statements

There is a number of different types of commands that can be specified within a run-commands file.

These commands are the following:

• “herccmd

• PAUSE

• #

(any valid Hercules console command)

(delay the processing of the next command)

(issue silent comment)

• *

(issue loud comment)

In the run-commands file any valid Hercules console command (“herccmd”) can be specified. This includes the ‘sh’ (shell) command. Each command that is read from the run-commands file is logged to the console preceded by a ‘>’' (“greater-than” sign) character. This is to distinguish between console commands entered manually from the keyboard from thosecommands entered via the run-commands file.

A pause command is supported in order to introduce a brief delay before reading and processing the next line in the file. The value nnn can be any number from 1 to 999 and specifies the number of seconds to delay before reading the next line.

Examples:

PAUSE 2

Lines starting with '#' are treated as "silent comments". They are intended as comments just for the runcommands file itself and are thus not logged to the console. That means they are are not visible when

Hercules is started and the run-commands file is executed.

12.3 Automating Hercules Startup

Creative use of the run-commands file can completely automate Hercules startup. The next figure shows a sample run-commands file that does the following:

• “pause 1” – Wait one second before processing the first Hercules command. (1)

• “traceopt traditional” – Specify the traditional trace mode (registers are displayed following the instruction). (2)

• “help” – Display all valid Hercules commands. (3)

• “maxrates midnight” – Set the MAXRATES reporting interval to midnight to have the MIPS and

I/O statistics issued date aligned. (4)

• “sh startgui "D:\MVS\TERMINALS.BAT" – Execute the named batch file in the shell to start a couple of tn3270 sessions. See details below. (5)

• “pause 3” – Wait three seconds until all tn3270 sessions have been successfully connected. (6)

Hercules Emulator V3.09 – User Reference Guide Page 489

• “ipl 0148” – Finally IPL MVS 3.8J from device address 148. (7)

The CHOICE command used in the batch file is to issue a delay before trying to connect the next tn3270 session.

The “/t” parameter specifies the number of seconds to pause before a default choice is made. Option “/d” specifies the default choice that is issued after the timeout has expired. The character given as argument must be in the set of choices specified by the “/c” option (defaults are ‘Y’ and ‘N’).

Hercules Emulator V3.09 – User Reference Guide Page 491

13. The “Hercules Automatic Operator” (HAO) Facility

13.1 HAO Introduction

The Hercules Automatic Operator (HAO) feature is a facility which can automatically issue panel commands in response to specific messages appearing on the Hercules console.

To use the Hercules Automatic Operator facility, you first define a rule consisting of a target and the associated command. The target is a regular expression pattern used to match against the text of the various messages that Hercules issues as it runs. Whenever a match is found, the rule “fires” and ist associated command is automatically issued.

The Hercules Automatic Operator facility only operates on messages issued to the Hercules console.

These messages may originate from Hercules itself or from the guest operating system via the SCP

SYSCONS interface or via the integrated console printer-keyboard (3215-C or 1052-C). HAO cannot intercept messages issued by the guest operating system to its own terminals.

13.2 Defining HAO Rules

To define a HAO rule, enter the command

HAO TGT target to define the rule’s target match pattern, followed by the command

HAO CMD command to define the rule’s associated panel command.

The target is a regular expression as defined by your host platform. When running on Linux, Hercules uses POSIX Extended Regular Expression syntax. On a Windows platform, regular expression support is provided by Perl Compatible Regular Expression (PCRE). The HAO facility can only be used if regular expression support was included in Hercules at build time.

The associated command is whatever valid Hercules panel command you wish to issue in response to a message being issued that matches the given target pattern.

13.3 Deleting HAO Rules

To delete a fully or partially defined HAO rule, first use the the following command to get a list of all of the defined (or partially defined) rules

HAO LIST [nnn]

Where nnn is the (optional) number of an existing rule. This gives you the list of all rules with the specified identifier or lists the rule with identifier ‘nnn’. Then use the next command to delete the specific rule identified by the identifier ‘nnn

HAO DEL nnn

Hercules Emulator V3.09 – User Reference Guide Page 492

To every rule there is a number assigned as the rule is defined. The rules then are subsequently identified by their numeric value.

It is also possible to delete all defined or partially defined rules by issuing the following command

HAO CLEAR

13.4 Substituting Substrings

The command may contain special variables ($1, $2, $3, etc.) which will be replaced by the values of

“capturing groups” in the match pattern. A capturing group is a part of the regular expression enclosed in parenthesis which is matched with text in the target message. In this way commands may be constructed which contain substrings extracted from the message which triggered the command.

The following special variables are recognized:

• $1 to $9 – the text which matched the first to nineth capturing group in the target regular expression.

• $` - the text preceeding the regular expression match.

• $’ – the text following the regular expression match.

• $$ - replaced by a single dollar sign.

Note that the substitution of a $n variable does not occur if there are fewer than n capturing groups in the regular expression.

13.5 Limitations

The current implementation limits the total number of defined rules to 64. This limit may be raised by increasing the value of the HAO_MAXRULE constant in module “hao.c” and rebuilding Hercules.

All defined rules are checked for a match each time Hercules issues a message. There is no way to specify “stop processing subsequent rules”. If a message is issued that matches two or more rules, each associated command is then issued in sequence.

13.6 Examples

Example 1:

Issue the command “i 0700” in response to the message:

HHCTE014I 3270 device 001F client 127.0.0.1 connection reset

The following HAO commands define the desired rule:

HAO TGT HHCTE014I 3270 device ([0-9A-F]{3,4})

HAO CMD i $1

Hercules Emulator V3.09 – User Reference Guide Page 493

Example 2:

Use the dot matrix display of a 3480 tape unit to implement an automatic tape library (please note that the first HAO command has been split over two lines to fit on the page):

HAO TGT HHCTA010I ([0-9A-F]{4}): Now displays:

(?:".{8}" / )?"M([A-Z0-9]{1,6})\s*S"

HAO CMD devinit $1 D:\MVSTAPES\$2.AWSTAPE

14. Submitting Jobs via the Socket Reader

14.1 Socket Reader Basics

The “sockdev” option allows you to submit cards directly to a Hercules card reader from outside of Hercules. The card reader must be defined with the “sockdev” keyword and either a TCP/IP port number or the name of a Unix Domain Socket. Then whenever you want to submit a card deck to that particular card reader, you use an external program to connect to the socket and transmit the cards to the reader. Socket readers were implemented by Fish, based upon code originally contributed by Malcolm Beattie.

Socket readers are defined in the Hercules configuration like this:

Descriptive

devnum devtype sockspec sockdev

[ option

[ option

... ]]

Diagram

Êʬ¬¬ devnum ¬¬¬ devtype option

¬¬¬

¬¬¬¨¬¬¬¯ sockspec

ʬ¬¬§¬¬¬¬¬¬¬¬¬¬¬¬¬¬¬¬¬¬¬¬¬¬§¬¬¬¬¬¬¬¬¬¬¬¬¬¬¬¬¬¬¬¬¬¬¬¬¬¬¬¬¬¬¬¬¬¬¬¬¬¬¬¬¬¬¬¬ÊÍ

The socket specification sockspec can take any of the following formats:

ipaddr:port hostname:port

port

The reader listens on the specific IP address and port number. ipaddr must be the IP address of an interface on the local system. For example, “127.0.0.1:1234” is used to accept only jobs submitted locally via the loopback interface.

Similar to the previous example, where hostname must resolve to an IP address belonging to the local system. Example: “localhost:1234”.

The reader listens on the specified port number and accepts jobs submitted from any IP address defined on the local system. Example: “1234”.

sockpath/sockname

The reader listens on the specified Unix Domain Socket. Example:

“/tmp/hercrdr.00C”

Examples:

000A 2501 127.0.0.1:2501 SOCKDEV ASCII TRUNC EOF

000C 3505 localhost:1234 SOCKDEV ASCII TRUNC EOF

0012 3505 3505 SOCKDEV ASCII TRUNC EOF

0014 2501 /tmp/hercrdr.014 SOCKDEV ASCII TRUNC EOF

Hercules Emulator V3.09 – User Reference Guide Page 495

14.2 Submitting Jobs from Windows

The “HercRdr” program is distributed as part of Fish’s GUI package and allows you to send jobs to a socket reader via TCP/IP. Simply enter “HercRdr” from the command line (i.e. from a “Command Prompt” window if you are using Windows) to submit your file(s).

The following screen print shows the help information from the HercRdr program that is displayed whenever the program is called without parameters:

D:\HERCULES>hercrdr

Submits card file(s) to a Hercules card reader bound to a given socket:port.

Format:

HERCRDR [-nnn] [host:port] file [file...]

Where:

-nnn timeout value in seconds (1-999; default is 3)

host:port sock_spec of target reader (if not specified,

value of HERCRDR environ var is used, if set)

file file(s) to be submitted

Examples:

HERCRDR localhost:1234 fileone.txt filetwo.txt

set HERCRDR=localhost:1234

HERCRDR file3.txt file4.txt

HERCRDR override:5678 filefive.txt

HERCRDR 192.168.0.1:5678 666.txt 777.txt 888.txt 999.txt

Returns:

-1 unclassified error

0 file(s) successfully submitted

1 no route to host (bad sock_spec or connection refused)

2 timeout value exceeded while trying to connect

3 transmission error (e.g. connection prematurely closed)

4 file not found (or other file error)

14.2.1 How to submit jobs directly from SPF/PC

If you are lucky enough to have a copy of the excellent editor SPF/PC Version4 or SPF/Pro (produced by

CTC but unfotunately no longer available), then you can submit jobs directly from your edit session. The

SUB command can be implemented by means of a REXX macro such as the following one, provided by

Volker Bandke:

'ispexec setmsg msg(isrz000)'

ADDRESS "CMD" "DELETE $$$$$$$$.SPF" end

EXIT 0

14.3 Submitting Jobs from Unix

Submitting jobs from Unix can be done in two different ways, described in detail in the next sections:

• Using a Perl script

• Using the netcat program

14.3.1 Using a Perl script

Malcolm Beattie has provided a simple Perl script which can submit jobs using either TCP/IP or Unix

Domain Sockets. The script is invoked using one of the following command formats: hercsub 192.168.1.102:3505 dummy.jcl hercsub /tmp/hercrdr.00C dummy.jcl

Hercules Emulator V3.09 – User Reference Guide Page 497

Here is the Hercsub script:

============== hercsub ================

#!/usr/bin/perl use Socket; use IO::Socket::UNIX; use IO::Socket::INET; if (@ARGV < 1) {

print STDERR "Usage: hercsub socket_spec [job]\n";

exit 2;

} my $spec = shift @ARGV; my $sock; if ($spec =~ m{^/}) {

$sock = IO::Socket::UNIX->new(Peer => $spec);

} else {

$sock = IO::Socket::INET->new(PeerAddr => $spec);

} die "Failed to connect to socket $spec: $!\n" unless defined($sock); while (<>) {

print $sock $_;

}

========== end of hercsub =============

Figure 246: The Hercsub Perl Script

14.3.2 Using the netcat program

The netcat (nc) program can also be used to submit files to a Hercules reader via TCP/IP. Install netcat

(which is useful for many other things as well) and use the following syntax: nc –w1 localhost 1234 < dummy.jcl

For more information on the netcat program, type man nc from the Unix shell.

Appendix B. Configuration of Emulated CPUs

This appendix describes the cooperation of the configuration statements related to the emulated CPUs in more detail. The configuration statements that define the emulated CPUs are:

• ENGINES (Processor engine type)

• MAXCPU (Maximum number of CPUs)

• NUMCPU (Number of emulated CPUs)

B.1 General Explanations and Rules

The ENGINES parameter specifies the type of engine for each emulated processor (valid types are CP,

AP, IP or IL). MAXCPU specifies the maximum number of installed processor engines, whereas

NUMCPU defines the number of emulated processor engines that are configured online at IML time.

The ENGINES statement specifies any mixture of CPU types up to MAXCPU, the maximum number of installed processors. NUMCPU configures the processor engines in the order that they are specified on the

ENGINES statement.

NUMCPU must be less than or equal to MAXCPU. If NUMCPU is larger than MAXCPU then an error message is issued during the processing of the Hercules configuration file. If it is less than MAXCPU then the remaining engines can be configured online later by the operating system.

B.1 Examples

The first four engines are defined with their specified type and are taken online because of the NUMCPU configuration statement. The next two CPUs are also defined with their specified type, but are taken offline, because of the NUMCPU value. MAXCPU is set to eight CPUs but ENGINES specifies only the type of six of the engines, so the remaining two CPUs are defined per default as type CP and are taken offline as specified in NUMCPU.

NUMCPU 6

The first four engines are defined with their specified type and are taken online. The next two CPUs are defined per default as type CP, because the number in MAXCPU exceeds the number of CPUs in the

ENGINES statement. These additional two CPUs are also taken online through the NUMCPU statement.

This configuration leads to an error. While the first four CPUs would be taken online with their specified types and the next two CPUs would be of type CP per default and be taken offline, the excess engines from NUMCPU compared against MAXCPU lead to an error message and a failing configuration.

Appendix C. Syntax

This book uses two kinds of describing the syntax of configuration statements, console commands and utilities.These are:

• Syntax descriptions

• Syntax diagrams

C.1 Reading Syntax Descriptions

All syntax descriptions in this book (configuration statements, console commands and utilites) use a common structure as described in the following table.

Syntax Element

KEYWORDS

variables

{ }

[ ]

| xxx,...

xxx ...

Description

Keywords are denoted with upper case letters.

Obey the spelling. In the actual statements or commands they can be coded in upper case or lower case letters.

All user defined values are denoted with lower case italic letters. In the actual statements or commands they can be coded in upper case or lower case letters.

Signifies that all, or some portion, of the code elements between the braces are required elements. Note that the braces are not part of the statements and must be not coded.

Signifies that all, or some portion of the code elements between the square brackets can optionally appear but are not required elements.

Note that the square brackets are not part of the statements and must be not coded.

The OR symbol signifies that you may use only one of the code elements or values from the possible choices. Note that the OR symbol is not part of the statements and must be not coded.

Signifies that there can be more than one value in a comma delimited list. Note that the dots are not part of the statements and must be not coded.

Signifies that there can be more than one value in a blank space delimited list. Note that the dots are not part of the statements and must be not coded.

This symbol indicates that the syntax diagram is a continuation from the previous line.

A required element (keyword or variable) appears on the main path of the horizontal line. You must specify this element.

An optional element (keyword or variable) appears below the main path of the horizontal line. You may or may not specify this element.

A required choice (keyword or variable) appears vertically stacked in the main path of the horizontal line. You must choose one of the available options.

An optional choice (keyword or variable) with default appears vertically stacked with the default value above the main path of the horizontal line and the remaining optional elements below the main path of the horizontal line. Only one of the available options may be specified. If none of these elements is explicitly specified, the default above the main line is taken.

An arrow returning to the left of an element below the main path of the horizontal line indicates an optional repeatable item. A character within the arrow path means that repeated items have to be separated by that character. If there is no character within the arrow path then the items are separated by a blank.

An arrow returning to the left of an element on the main path of the horizontal line indicates an required repeatable item. A character within the arrow path means that repeated items have to be separated by that character. If there is no character within the arrow path then the items are separated by a blank.

Description

This symbol is a reference to a syntax segment, which is described separately below the main syntax diagram. Complex syntax diagrams are occasionally broken into separated simpler segments.

This symbol indicates a syntax segment which is referenced from a main syntax diagram that is shown above the syntax segment.

Keywords are denoted with upper case letters. Obey the spelling. Lower case letters are optional and can be omitted

(for example DISable). In the actual statements or commands the keywords can be coded in upper case or lower case letters.

All user defined values are denoted with lower case italic letters. They represent user supplied names or values. In the actual statements or commands they can be coded in upper case or lower case letters.
