Enhanced Features
Enhanced Features
This section describes the new product features of Cisco IOS for S/390 release 2.0.
Improved Performance and Efficiency
• Increased throughput, reduction in CPU utilization, and inbound and outbound multiprocessing.
TCP/IP processing is now multi-threaded instead of single-threaded. This is especially
significant to FTP transmissions as it will let you obtain an aggregate transmission rate using up
to four FTP applications running at the same time on four different CPUs. Outbound processing
occurs in the dispatchable unit of the caller; Inbound processing is done on one or more SRBs to
provide multitasking and proper accountability of CPU usage.
• Capability of configuring up to 25,000 tn3270 sessions.
• CLA W performance enhancements. W ith a Cisco 7xxx router and a Channel Interf ace Processor
(CIP), large CLAW blocks can be used. Multiple packets are packed into one CLAW block to
increase performance.
Improved Management
With Cisco IOS for S/390 release 2.0 you can dynamically:
• Activate, inactivate, define, and remove virtual IP addresses
• Alter, add, or delete the real IP addresses of interfaces
• Start or stop device drivers
• Start, stop, add, or remove interfaces
• Modify message routing/filtering at component and message suffix levels
• Update message routing—for problem diagnosis situatio ns, message logging levels and
destinations may be manipulated on the fly with operator commands
Enhanced Functionality
•
The ACPEEP trace utility has been replaced by the TRA CE utility that uses the MVS Component
Trace facility, IPCS formatting routines, and an interactive TSO / component trace interface
(TCPEEP).
• NETSTAT accepts commands from TSO, Telnet, and the operator console.
• SMF records are generated at various processing points such as connection establishment,
connection termination, connection rejection, failed connection attempts, etc. for transport (TCP ,
UDP, Raw), Server Telnet, FTP, storage utilization, and drivers.
• Logging of tn3270 IP address-to-LU name mapping.
• The STOP command can be used for either a graceful shutdown or for an immediate shutdown.
• Messages can be selectively displayed or suppressed on a component or type basis.
• All Cisco IOS for S/390 address spaces now record trace information onto a common TRACE
address space.
2 Cisco IOS for S/390 Release 2.0 Release Notes
Enhanced APIs
• OS/390 OpenEdition (UNIX System Services) asynchronous I/O (required for DB2 V5 TCP/IP
support) and SRB mode.
• Multiple BIND support for server applications (parallel processing for FTP, Telnet, and vendor
applications).
• Enhanced TLI interface—data spaces, cross memory, SRB mode, etc.
• SAS 6.0 support.
Other Enhancements
• Year 2000 support.
• FTP server support for IP address as RACR OUTE TERMID—allows security rules to deny FTP
access unless permitted by IP address.
• Cisco router-based queuing—IP Type of Service (TOS) can be set for applications to better
interface to Cisco queuing mechanisms like Weighted Fair Queuing (WFQ).
Enhanced APIs
Product Changes
• The parameter WRELIM has been removed from the UDP and TCP statements. Buffering is
handled automatically in Cisco IOS for S/390 release 2.0.
• Some of the control blocks for the POOL command have changed. The EPCB control block is
now called the SEPM, the SRE is now called the SA W, and the ARCB, TUCB, and TSQB control
blocks have been combined into the ATCB. The 256B pool no longer exists.
• The message ACC210I Internet Protocol Task Started no longer displays to indicate that
startup has completed. A message will display indicating startup completion in Cisco IOS for
S/390 release 2.0. The message number will vary, depending on the device you are using; the
message text will be
Media media_name is now operational with one or more active interfaces.
Initialization and termination messages now appear in mixed case. This may impact some
automated operations packages that search for messages to invoke some action. You should
review these messages and tak e appropriate action.
• Some parameters for Cisco IOS for S/390 release 2.0 have been renamed to improve readability,
but aliases have been added for the names used i n Vers ion releas e 1.0. Th e follo win g names and
aliases are available for Cisco IOS for S/390 release 2.0:
• The ACPCFG00, APICFG00, and XITCFG00 configuration members have been removed. The
TCP/IP stack configuration has moved into a new configuration member, TCPCFG00. The
applications, such as Server FTP, Server Telnet, etc., moved to a new configuration member,
APPCFG00.

• Many APICFG00 parameters are now available through the following configuration members:
As for parameters in the Cisco IOS for S/390 Release 1.0 configuration member APICFG00, the
TPCB was replaced with the SPCB. Y ou will only need 3 (default) because there are only 3 API's.
CBUFs were replaced with the set of MBUFs. Previously, there were two CBUFs per session,
one for input and one for output. Now all data is buffered in MBUFs, so there is no relation
between the size of the CBUF pool, and the sizes of the MBUF pools. Pool sizes are based on the
amount of data buffered, not on the number of endpoints.
In Cisco IOS for S/390 Release 2.0, usage of the API is no longer limited, so there was no need
for the (1.0) API statement.
• The APP task group may have up to four tasks for parallel processing.
• The SSN parameter of member ACPCFG00 is now in the startup JCL.
• The startup JCL has the following changes:
— WTPLOG11, WTPLOG12, WTPLOG13, and ACLOG DD statements have been replaced
by T01LOG
— T01LOG DD SYSOUT=&SOUT has been added
— ACSNAP DD statements have been removed
— PRFX=ACS parameter on the EXEC statement has changed to PRFX=T01
— CNFG parameter has been added to the EXEC statement.
• The following pools that were in Cisco IOS for S/390 release 1.0 are not in Cisco IOS for S/390
release 2.0:
— ARCB
— CBUF
— EPCB
— SRE
— TPCB
— TSQB
— TUCB
• The NETSTAT RTM (Reco very and Termination Manager) function is no longer supported.
NETSTAN CONN COUNT and NETSTAT CNFG LNI provide similar information
• The NETSTAT WTOLOG function is no longer supported.
• The LOGSTAMP feature and task is no longer provided. All messages in the T01LOG are
timestamped.

• NETSTAT is available from TSO
• Most PARM members can be dynamically refreshed.
TOPTION OPTCD=QUERY differ between Cisco IOS for S/390 rel ease 1.0 an d Cisco IOS for
S/390 release 2.0. The result of the query on release 1.0 returns a value of 1 (allow broadcast),
while the result on release 2.0 returns a value of zero (do not allow broadcast).
Returning the value of zero is correct since the default for Cisco IOS for S/390 release 2.0 is do
not allow broadcast. Therefore, the SO_BRO ADCAST flag is not set. To set this flag to ON, you
must run TOPTION with OPTCD=DECLARE and the TPOIPBRO option set to a value of 1 to
override the default. After the flag is set, TOPTION OPTCD=QUERY will return a value of 1.

Documentation
Changes to the Documentation Set
The Cisco IOS for S/390 Planning and Operations Guide and Cisco IOS for S/390 Installation Guide
of previous releases have been reorganized as described below:
• Cisco IOS for S/390 Planning Guide
This guide provides information to help you plan your installation of Cisco IOS for S/390. It will
ship prior to shipment of the product.
• Cisco IOS for S/390 System Management Guide
This guide provides information about Cisco IOS for S/390 operation and system commands. It
will ship with the product.
The release notes now contain installation information. They will ship with the product.
Cisco IOS for S/390 User's Guide
A correction is required for Chapter 9, “Remote Executor,” of the Cisco IOS for S/390 User's
Guide. On page 9-2, in the section “What is the Remote Executor?” the following statement is
incorrect:
This product uses version 5.5 of SAS C.
You must use SAS/C Release 6.00.
Cisco IOS for S/390 Planning Guide
The information in this section should be added to the Cisco IOS for S/390 Planning Guide.
SERVICE Startup Statement
Keywords IBUF(aaa bbb) and OBUF(aaa bbb) have been added to the SERVICE startup statement
to allow default override:
IBUF(aaa bbb)If the service name is TELNET, you can use IBUF to specify the number of
input buffers as aaa, and their size as bbb. The lower limits are (2 256);
defaults are (1 1460).
OBUF(aaa bbb)If the service name is TELNET, you can use OBUF to specify the number of
output buffers as aaa, and their size as bbb. The lower limits are (2 256); the
defaults are (4 1460).
The minimum value for IBUF and OBUF is 512; it is the product of multiplying the buffer size times
the number of buffers. The buf fer size cannot be less than 256, and the number of buffers cannot be 0,
so the lower limit would be (2 256) or (1 512).
Enhancements to the Global Exit Facility
The following enhancements have been made to the Global Exit Facility.
10 Cisco IOS for S/390 Release 2. 0 R el e ase Notes
Cisco IOS for S/390 Planning Guide
Exit Work Area
If requested, the exit facility provides a work area to the exit program upon each invocation, except
the INIT exit point. Request the work area with the EWALENGTH parameter of the EXIT statement
in member IJTCFG
xx, or with a parameter returned by the program at the INIT exit point (the
program parameter taking precedence).
The Exit Work Area (EWA) addressed will be passed to the exit program at each exit point as the
fifth parameter, following the address of the message-writing routine.
Note The parameter lists for all exit points must be updated.
The EWA size can be from 1 to 65532 bytes. It is taken from pooled storage; the smallest pool that
will satisfy the requested size will be used. Pool usage can be monitored via the IFS POOL
command. One of the following pools will be used:
Note These figures are provided to allow the exit program designer to make efficient use of the
EWA buffers. It is important that the exit use only the size requested on the EWALENGTH
parameter, or by the INIT exit. The exit facility monitors the exit program's use of the EWA, and will
force an ABEND if an overrun is detected, even if space remains in the buffer.
Add the following parameters to the INIT exit parameter list, following the subsystem ID address:
Table 4INIT Exit Parameters

address of a recovery routine to be called in the event the exit program
ABENDs at a subsequent entry point.
Cisco IOS for S/390 Release 2.0 Release Notes 11
Documentation
Exit Recovery Routine
The exit program can supply the address of a recov ery routine via a parameter returned at the INIT
exit point. The exit facility calls this routine in the event of an ABEND in the exit program. The
recovery routine is called in the same mode as the ABENDing exit program, and is passed the
System Diagnostic Work Area (SDWA) address and the EWA address (if any). Since the exit's
recovery routine is called after the system's Recov ery and T ermination Manager (R TM) has finished
processing the ABEND, it should perform only local clean-up functions. Any updates to the SDWA
are ignored. The recovery routine should not attempt to free the SDWA, since this will be done by
the exit facility.
Recovery Exit
Exit Point: When an ABEND has occurred in an exit program.
Function: Perform clean-up associated with the exit program.
Dispatchable Unit: Identical with the ABENDing exit program.
Register contents are shown in the following table.

On return from the recovery exit, R13 must be restored.
Exit Parameter List Mapping Macro - T00DEXPL
A new macro, T00DEXPL, is supplied to map the parameter lists to the exit program at the various
exit points. The macro is distributed in the SAMP library.

Customizing CA-ACF2 Version 6 or Later
A correction is required for Chapter 3 of the Cisco IOS for S/290 Planning Guide. Under the heading
Customizing CA-ACF2 Version 6 or Later (page 3-12), step 2 is Update GSO Records for Cisco IOS
for S/390. The code listed in this step is incorrect. The correct code is:
USSTAB (tbl_name)Specifies the USS Table tbl_name coded in the active APPCFGxx SERVICE
segment to be refreshed.
Note LUPARM, GREETING, and USST AB are mutually exclusive.
The following is an example of the usage of the REFRESH USSTAB command.

Cisco IOS for S/390 Release 2.0 Release Notes 13
Documentation
The REFRESH command is described in the “Cisco IOS for S/390 Operation” chapter.
Parameters for the SVCDUMP Command
Two parameters have been added to the SVCDUMP command, ASID and J OBname. These
parameters let the user request that other address spaces be dumped along with Cisco IOS for S/390.
ASID(asid_list)A list of address space IDs. Cisco IOS for S/390 will include these
JOBname(jobname_list) A list of one-to-eight character jobnames. Cisco IOS for S/390 will
address spaces in the dump. This parameter can be combined with the
JOBname parameter for a total of five address spaces.
The address space IDs may be listed in decimal or in hexadecimal
notation, as x’999’.
include these address spaces in the dump. This parameter can be
combined with the ASID parameter for a total of five address spaces.
Note: If there is more than one job active in the system with the same
jobname Cisco IOS for S/390 will dump the first one found in the
Address Space Vector Table.
The SVCDUMP command is described in the “Cisco IOS for S/390 Operation” chapter.
The SMF subtype 110-123 records, described on page 3-17, are written to record certain
protocol-related events, such as a bind or connect request.
The following table describes the relationship of each of these subtypes:
Subtype Description

MU1IUCV USERMOD Correction
The zap example for EZASOK03 configuration overrides and defaults on page 4-14 and the
USERMOD on page 4-15 are incorrect. Use USERMOD MU1IUCV in the SAMP data set instead.
14 Cisco IOS for S/390 Release 2. 0 R el e ase Notes
NETSTAT RTM Command
The NETSTAT diag nostic commands are described beginning on page 5-12. The NETSTAT RTM
command can be used by a Telnet user to display a continuous activity report on all active hardw are
interfaces. The frequency is determined by the value in seconds, and defaults to 9 if not entered.
Permissible values are between 1 and 32767.
Once activated, the R TM command will continu e to display a time-stamped connection counter , and
LNI counts and rates. The display itself will appear after the specified interval in seconds, but the
rate is based on a time difference between now and the last sampling. If multiple RTM commands
are in effect, the rates will not always be consistently smooth.
To terminate the RTM command, press Enter.
Capture of User Data in a TLI Trace
You can use the trace facility or TCPEEP to capture user data in a TLI trace. The data is from the
TPL field DABUF.
To capture and view user data, two actions are required.
• The filter MAXTLIDATA (alias MTLIDATA or MTDATA) must specify the maximum amount
of data to be captured. The default is zero; the maximum is 65,535.
Cisco IOS for S/390 Customization Guide
For example, the following command will capture up to 100 bytes of data:
GROUPS( ( TLI,'MTDATA( 100 ) ' ) )
• The FORMAT param eter must be specified for the maximum amount of data to be displayed.
For example, the following command will display up to 50 bytes of captured data:
FORMAT( TLIEBCDIC( 50 ) )
The TCPEEP command is described in the “Diagnostic Commands” chapter.
Cisco IOS for S/390 Customization Guide
The information in this section should be added to the Cisco IOS for S/390 Customization Guide.
TCPEEP NETIF Option
The default maximum data captured by the TCPEEP option NETIF is now 256 bytes of data, which
includes device header, IP header, etc. A new filter option, MAXDATA (alias MDATA), allows
resetting this to a maximum of 65,535.
This is an example of the usage of the MAXDATA (MDATA) filter option:
GROUPS( (NETIF,'MDATA( 512 ) ' ) )
This command will capture up to 512 bytes of data. The FORMAT options DATA(nn),
EBCDIC(nn), and ASCII(nn) still limit what is seen.
