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The ACPEEP trace utility has been replaced by the TRA CE utility that uses the MVS Component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.

• Support for Inter-User Communications Vehicle (IUCV) sockets
• Support for Channel Data Link Control (CDLC) driver (3745)
• Support for TCPassist to allow TCP CHECKSUM processing to be off-loaded to Cisco
• New Client FTP3 provides compatibility with IBM TCP/IP FTP client input and commands
• New storage parameters are provided to control virtual storage usage for TCP connections
• 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
110 Endpoint create
111 TCP connect request

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.
Cisco IOS for S/390 Release 2.0 Release Notes 15
Documentation
TCP MINDEV and RTO Defaults Changed
Two of the defaults in the TCPCFG00 file have changed.
For the TCP statement, the MINDEV parameter defaults to 40 (0.10 second).
Also on the TCP statement, the RTO parameter defaults to 0; range 0 - 6000.
APPEND Keyword for LUPOOL Statement
In configuration member APPLUP00, a new keyword, APPEND has been added to the LUPOOL
statement.
LUPOOL NAME(pool_name)
APPEND(lu_name,...,lu_name)
Syntax Description
APPENDSpecifies additional LU names for an LUPOOL. When APPEND is specified with
a previously defined NAME, the LU names specified are appended to that
previously defined for LUPOOL. There is no limit to the number of LUPOOL
statements that can be specified with the APPEND keyword. Duplicate LU name
checking is done for the complete list of LU names (original and appended).
The 3746-900 unit is configured with a network MTU size, but will override it with the lowest MTU
size it encounters. That MTU size will be applied to whatever mainframe software will be running
next. Therefore, if a small MTU size is used, that will become the restriction for subsequent IP
packet sizes and may cause problems if fragmentation is not allowed. The CDLC MTU size should
correspond to its network configuration parameter.
Recommendations on Setting TOS
The following recommendations for setting TOS (type of service) have been added to the Cisco IOS
for S/390 Customization Guide.
When setting TOS, precedence bits should be set to zero.Of the next 4 bits, only one is to be set on
in any one packet: 16 = mindelay, 8 = max thruput, 4 = reliability, 2 = min cost. These should be set
as follows:
• Telnet = 16
• FTP Control = 16, Data = 8,
• SMTP Commands = 16, Data = 8
• DNS query = 16, zone transfer = 8
• SNMP = 4

Note that Cisco IOS for S/390 does not configure TOS for SNMP or DNR queries, and NNTP is not
implemented. Telnet and the FTP control connection can be configured in the Service statement. The
FTP data connection can be configured in the FTP statement. The SMTP connection can be
configured on the Service statement.
LOGGING Keywords Logically Grouped
The LOGGING command has been changed slightly to introduce a logical grouping of the keywords
that control SYSOUT attributes and when the log is spun. The changes in this section apply to the
Cisco IOS for S/390 System Management Guide.
This change makes the command easier to use in that you do not need to specify all of the keywords
for an action, as is shown in the following table.
Keywords specified Action
All the keywords are specified. The LOGGING command will change all of the attributes as
Some of the keywords are specified. The specified attrib utes are changed, b ut the remaining att ributes
None of the keywords are specified. None of the attributes of the group will be changed, and any
Cisco IOS for S/390 Customization Guide
specified.
of the grouped attributes are set to the default.
previous attributes will be carried forward.
The SYSOUT attributes that are grouped are:
• CLASS
• DEST
• FORM
• WRITER
The SPIN attributes that are grouped are:
• LINES
• MINUTES
• SYNC
Note The NOW keyword is not associated with LINES, MINUTES, and SYNC. The PRINT and
WTO keywords are separate from each other, and from all the rest.
LOGGING Examples
Here are some examples of the usage of these grouped keywords.
LOGGING PRINT(ALL)
Prints all messages; leaves WTO, SYSOUT, and spin unchanged.
LOGGING WTO(ALL)
WTOs all messages; leaves PRINT, SYSOUT, and spin unchanged.
LOGGING CLASS(X)
Resets SYSOUT class to X; defaults DEST , FORM, and WRITER, and leaves remaining keywords
unchanged.
Cisco IOS for S/390 Release 2.0 Release Notes 17
Documentation
LOGGING SPIN NOW
Spins the log now; leaves all specifications unchanged.
LOGGING SPIN(LINES(5000) MINUTES(60))
Resets spin to every 5000 lines or 60 minutes, whichever comes first; leaves remaining keywords
unchanged.
LOGGING PRINT(ALL) WTO(ALL) WRITER(TOLSTOY) SPIN(SYNC) NOW
Prints and WTOs all message, resets SYSOUT writer to TOLSTOY and defaults CLASS, DEST , and
FORM. Also resets spin to every hour on the hour, ignoring line count, and spins the log now.

Callable System Services Library
You must have the Callable System Services library, SYS1.CSSLIB, available for the installation.
Modules from this library are linked with Cisco IOS for S/390 release 2.0 for OpenEdition support.
This library is distributed with MVS/ESA. If you do not have this library available, OpenEdition
support will not function properly.
TSO/E
New users must verify that the IBM program product TSO/E is installed. Cisco IOS for S/390
configuration files are parsed using TSO/E parsing routines and S0C4 ABENDs can result if these
routines are not available.
ACF/2
For some users of CA-ACF2, the CA-A CF2 fix es listed here affect the way the Cisco IOS for S/390
SAF security interface to CA-ACF2 works. These fixes should be reviewed by the CA-ACF2
Systems Programmer to determine if they are still applicable or have been superseded by later
maintenance.
Cisco IOS for S/390 release 2.0 is designed to work with SAS/C Release 6.00, which is included
with the product. If you are not running with the correct SAS/C libraries, unpredictable results may
occur.
The zap associated with Usage Note 1670 for SAS/C 6.0 must be applied in order to run applications
via IUCV over the SAS LSCNCOM interface, including SAS/connect.
Asynchronous Sockets

• DB2 V5 requires PTF level 9708 or higher
24 Cisco IOS for S/390 Release 2. 0 R el e ase Notes
• DB2/CONNECT V5 requires Fix Pack WR09014. Do not apply Fix Pack WR09024.
Common Inet Sockets in OpenEdition
You must install the APAR OW20620 in order to use Common Inet sockets in OpenEdition.
RS6000
You must install the RS/6000 patch U432867 to use the CLAW driver. With earlier RS/6000
maintenance, MVS error recovery problems can occur.
VTAM Release 3.3
VTAM Release 3.3 users must apply PTF UY67100 or UY69746, or their equivalent. If this is not
possible, contact Cisco T AC and request APAR MB18602. If the PTFs or APAR are not applied,
problems can occur handling control vector X’5F’ and cause connection errors.
MVS/ESA Release 5.1 Considerations
Interlink 3722 users must install the latest release of the CETI microcode. Interlink 3762 users must
install the latest release of the ECA CETI microcode. The CETI driver may terminate at startup if
you are using earlier releases.
Installation Requirements
Novell LAN Workplace
We recommend that you apply Novell fixes LWP41N and LWP168 (to correct an FTP hang
condition). These fixes are available on NetWire.

determine which subsystems are in use on your system, execute the MVS command D SSI.
Control File JCL
Copy and execute the JCL below to unload the control file from which you will be able to install and
customize Cisco IOS for S/390 release 2.0. The control file is on your Cisco IOS for S/390 release
26 Cisco IOS for S/390 Release 2. 0 R el e ase Notes
Note Some members of the CNTL library are now under SMP/E control and some members will
be loaded as part of the APPLY process. When modifying the ALLOCT00 JCL stream, verify that
the TCPJCL DDDEF points to your CNTL library. Also, you should exit the CNTL library as soon
as the INSTSMPE job stream is submitted. Keeping the data set open in your TSO session will cause
the APPLY job to fail.
Allocate the Data Set Names for Cisco IOS for S/390 release 2.0
References to member names in the following instructions are located in the control file that you
loaded onto your system in Control File JCL.
1 TCPNAMES
Member TCPNAMES in the CNTL library is used to customize all other installation members.
The TCPNAMES member, a REXX EXEC, lets you assign consistent data set name allocations.
You can customize member TCPNAMES so that you do not need to edit the other installation
members manually.
Step 1Edit the data set name symbolics to be consistent with naming conventions of your site.
Verify adequate space on the volume specified.
Installation Process
The LNKINDX data set is allocated as a SYS1 data set in job ALLOCT00. You can
change to a different high level node if you do not have authority to allocate SYS1.
Step 2Copy the TCPNAMES member to a CMDLIB listed in the SYSPROC concatenation of
your TSO logon procedure as described below.
Determine the name of your logon procedure. It is identified on the first screen of your
TSO logon.
Determine the data set in which your logon procedure is located. It is most likely in
SYS1.PROCLIB. If not, from your TSO command line execute the command
TSO LISTA, which will list all data sets allocated to your TSO session. Your TSO logon
procedure is most likely located in a data set with final node of PROCLIB.
Determine the CMDLIB you will use. Select the member containing your logon
procedure, find the SYSPROC DD, and select a CMDLIB to copy TCPNAMES into.
If you are copying TCPNAMES into a VBA library , you must delete the line numbers that
appear in columns 73 through 80 after you copy it in.
2 JOBCARD
Member JOBCARD in the CNTL library is used by the TCPNAMES EXEC to customize the
jobcards of all other installation members.
Choose a jobcard and copy it into the CNTL data set member JOBCARD.
If you are using JES3, replace the JOBPARM card with the following:
//*MAIN LINES=(999,W)
3 ALLOCSMP
Member ALLOCSMP allocates the data sets that contain your consolidated software inventory .
Edit and submit member ALLOCSMP according to the instructions below .
Before submitting the ALLOCSMP member, consider the following:
— ALLOCSMP requires 53 cylinders.
Cisco IOS for S/390 Release 2.0 Release Notes 27
Installing Cisco IOS for S/390 Release 2.0
— Verify that the Linkage Editor/Binder attributes for the CSI include NCAL, LET, and
SIZE=(660000,160000). If you are using the linkage editor you must remove the NCAL,
LET, and SIZE parameters from the ALLOCSMP JCL. You must also change your
maximum return code to a 4.
— For users running MVS/ESA 4.3 or above, Binder is now supported. To use the Linkage
Editor, update the options entry for IEWL to point to HEWLF064. In Cisco IOS for S/390
release 2.0 the default is to use HEWLH096, which invokes the Binder.
— Cisco IOS for S/390 release 2.0 must be installed into a new CSI; you cannot use a shared
CSI. Data set allocation changes in this release will cause attempts to install over an existing
release to fail.
Edit the ALLOCSMP member by entering TCPNAMES at the command line.
Submit ALLOCSMP.
4 ALLOCT00
Member ALLOCT00 in the CNTL library allocates the libraries that will contain the Cisco IOS
for S/390 base product.
Before submitting the ALLOCT00 member, consider the following:
ALLOCT00 requires 2333 tracks. Y ou may choose to distribute some of the libraries across
multiple volumes. This requires manual editing of ALLOCT00 after you execute
TCPNAMES.
The PFSLOAD and FTPLOAD libraries are allocated. The PFSLOAD library is used with
OpenEdition and contains Physical File System (PFS) modules. It must be APF-authorized.
If you are not using OpenEdition, the library is not requ ired. The FTPLOAD library will
contain the FTP3 load module for IBM-FTP client compatibility.
Edit the ALLOCT00 member by entering TCPNAMES at the command line.
Submit ALLOCT00.
5 INSTSMPE
Member INSTSMPE in the CNTL library is used to install the base product.
Before submitting the INSTSMPE member, consider the following:
The Cisco IOS for S/390 release 2.0 product consists of four FMIDs. You must apply the
Cisco IOS for S/390 FMID, T01T520, and the translate table FMID, T01X520. Optional
FMIDs are the development FMID, T01D520, and the SAS 6.0 runtime FMID, SAS0600.
No user changes are required.
You may submit only the RECEIVE portion of this job first. This will let you review the
HOLDDATA, especially any hold action that may appear, and take appropriate action. It will
also let you add additional BYPASS HOLD keywords to your APPLY statement.
Edit the INSTSMPE member by entering TCPNAMES at the command line.
If you are using a tape management system such as CA1, you must modify the label
parameter on your DD statements to include EXPDT=98000.
LABEL=1,NL,,EXPDT=98000
If you are using JES3, replace the JOBPARM card with the following:
//*MAIN LINES=(999,W)
Submit INSTSMPE.
28 Cisco IOS for S/390 Release 2. 0 R el e ase Notes
Installation Process
Note Exit the CNTL library as soon as the INSTSMPE job stream is submitted. Keeping the data
set open in your TSO session will cause the APPLY job to fail.
6 HOLDDATA
Before installing system maintenance, obtain the most recent HOLDDATA file. You can obtain
this file through anonymous FTP by logging in to ftp.interlink.com and requesting it as shown in
the following example. For user ID, use anonymous; for password, user your email address.
ftp2
open ftp.interlink.com
cd pub/ptf520
ascii
get hold.txt
At the prompt for a storfile name, enter the following (including the single quotation marks):
'your_80byte_pds(member)'
quit
This file is in ASCII and is to be downloaded to MVS for processing by SMP/E. Translation of
ASCII text to EBCDIC is automatic during transfer.
PTFs may have a HOLD status associated with them that should be reviewed before you begin
the APPLY process. Review the ++HOLD requirements after you RECEIVE the SYSMODS.
When satisfied, use a BYPASS(HOLDSYS) on the APPLY command and rerun the APPLY job
without the CHECK parameter.
Use this HOLDDATA file as your SMPHOLD file in the SMPHOLD DD statement. If you do
not have Internet access, contact Cisco TAC for the latest HOLDDATA file.
7 SMPECUMT
Member SMPECUMT in the CNTL library is used to apply maintenance to the base product.
The non-labeled (VOL=SER=PTFTAP) maintenance tape distributed with the product contains
the latest maintenance for the Cisco IOS for S/390 product. Apply this maintenance, as well as
any maintenance obtained interactively from our web site, prior to beginning any customization,
as configuration files or parameters may have changed.
Before submitting the INSTSMPE member, consider the following:
— You may submit only the RECEIVE portion of this job first. This will let you review the
HOLDDATA, especially an y hold action that may appear and take appropriate action. It will
also let you add additional BYPASS HOLD keywords to your APPLY statement.
Edit the SMPECUMT member by entering TCPNAMES at the command line.
— If you are using a tape management system such as CA1, you must modify the label
parameter on your DD statements to include EXPDT=98000.
LABEL=1,NL,,EXPDT=98000
— If you are using JES2, add the following statement:
/*JOBPARM L=9999
Cisco IOS for S/390 Release 2.0 Release Notes 29

— If you are using JES3, add the following statement:
//*MAIN LINES=(999,W)
— Verify that the tape unit is correct. It is hardcoded as CART.
Submit SMPECUMT.
SMPECUMT will generate the following message:
GIM34701E: SMPE expected to find ++MCS
This is expected and normal.
View the SDSF job output log to verify accuracy of the job. Execute the ISPF Browse or SDSF
View command F ‘APPLY PROCESSING WAS SUCCESS’ ALL. Confirm that the number
of occurrences matches the number of PTFs you applied.
8 Web Site PTFs
If you require additional PTFs that are not on the CUM tape received with your installation
package, access the following web site for a list of PTF numbers available:
http://www.interlink.com/support/
Scroll down approximately two pages and select the hypertext /pub directory.
Select the ptf520 directory.
Note Sometimes the incorrect year appears in the PTF creation dates. This is a known b ug with
the Microsoft Internet Explorer and has no effect on the validity of the PTFs. When using
Microsoft Internet Explorer to access a PTF directory, the year in the date adjacent to a file is
displayed as the current year if the file has not been updated for six months, even though the file
might have been created in the previous year.
Create a data set to contain the PTFs you will select. we recommend you use the same naming
convention you used in the TCPNAMES High Level Qualifiers (HLQ) for your LNKINDX
variable.
When you know the PTF numbers you want from the web site, set up a batch job with multiple
GET commands using the specific PTF numbers and FTP to the Interlink anonymous FTP site.
For User ID, use anonymous; for password, use guest.

Due to performance considerations this is the preferred startup option
This is the default.
ALLOCATE( NEXT ) Directs LUPOOL to allocate LUs in sequential order.
This option adds flexibility in an error LU situation. This option should
be specified at a site only at the direction of TAC personnel when the
VTAM network is not working properly.
DNRxxxxx: In general, you can transfer or copy these members from the Cisco IOS for S/390 release
1.0 PARM library to the Cisco IOS for S/390 release 2.0 PARM library. However , be sure to verify
accuracy and validity of the parameters and their placement.
DNRALCxx: Users running in a multihomed environment must place entries in the DNRALCxx
member for all non-loopback LNIs to allow domain name resolution to occur. If only one is defined,
expect the following message:
T01CF150E APP configuration error: invalid SUBSYS Name subsysname
Processing continues after the message displays.
DNRCFG01: Replace NAMESERVER(NO NE) with NAMESERVER(DNRNSC01). You will be
customizing this member later.
DNRNSC01: Complete the lines requesting that you “set serv er for your domain.”
IJTCFGxx: The existing Cisco IOS for S/390 release 1.0 authorization keys work for Cisco IOS for
S/390 release 2.0 if you use the same CPU. CPU serial numbers, processor status, and other
information can be obtained via execution of the MVS command D M=CPU.
STARTxx: To aid in diagnosis, insert the following statement on the first line of the STARTxx
member:
MODIFY TRACE ON SIZE(256)
Cisco IOS for S/390 Release 2.0 Release Notes 31
Installing Cisco IOS for S/390 Release 2.0
TCPCFG01: There is a new NETMASK parameter that lets the Network Information Center (NIC)
divide the Class B addresses into Class C addresses to alleviate some of the worldwide IP address
shortages. If your installation is affected you will have already applied to the NIC for these
addresses.
USERMOD Customization
The statements described in this section are all described in the Cisco IOS for S/390 Customization
Guide. These members all ship with the product.
UMODTRAN: Read the section “Maintaining Translation Tables Using UMODTRAN” in the
“T elnet and tn3270 Configuration Chapter” of the Cisco IOS for S/390 Customization Guide.
UMODAPPL: This is the usermode that you will most likely apply. In order for UMODAPPL to
run, you must modify member APPLNAME in the SAMP library with your correct VTAM APPL.
UMODPOOL: UMODPOOL uses member ACCPOOL in the SAMP library. Old style 3174
controllers did not let things start with 01, so the starting name is ACSVLT02.
Invoking Cisco IOS for S/390 Release 2.0
The startup member, RUNTCP, is located in the control library you designated in your installat ion
JCL. This member will invoke Cisco IOS for S/390 release 2.0. You will have a choice to submit
RUNTCP as either a started task or as a batch job.
Before submitting the RUNTCP member, consider the following:
• The CMND data set is no longer allocated or used. The ST ART00 member is now located in the
PARM data set. The RUNTCP member in the CNTL data set reflects this change.
• Two libraries, PFSLOAD and FTPLOAD, are allocated. The PFSLOAD library is used with
OpenEdition and contains Physical File System (PFS) modules. It must be APF-authorized to
work as specified in the Installation Requirements section earlier in this document. If you are not
using OpenEdition, the library is not required. The FTPLOAD library is reserved for future use.
Note TCPLOAD must never be in the linklist. If SASLINK is used, you must place it after the
LINK library in any concatenation to ensure that the Cisco IOS for S/390 version of LSCNCOM is
used.
Edit the RUNTCP member.
• Do not execute TCPNAMES.
• Change the symbolic ‘TRGINDX’ to the value you specified in member TCPNAMES.
• V erify that the symbolic SSN=A CSS is available for use. The MVS command DSSI will display
subsystem names that have been invoked during the life of the current IPL. You can use ACSS if
it either does not display or if it shows as inactive. If ACSS is acti ve, you must choose a dif ferent
name for your subsystem.
• Verify that th e symbo lic ‘S RC=% ’ is available for use.
• If you are using a user VTAMLIB, you must add it to your STEPLIB concatenation to make sure
RUNTCP can find your USSTAB.
• You need to add one of the following lines immediately after the JOBCARD to support
diagnostics.

Diagnosis and Problem Reporting
— If you are using JES2 add:
/*JOBPARM LINES=9999
— If you are using JES3, add:
//*MAIN LINES=(999,W)
• To prepare RUNTCP as a batch job:
— Complete your RUNTCP J OBCARD and add the following JCL statements to the end of the
RUNTCP JCL stream:
// PEND
//label EXEC TCPIP
To prepare RUNTCP as a started task:
— Delete the RUNTCP JOBCARD and comments that appear prior to the PROC statement.
— Copy member RUNTCP into a system PROCLIB.
Submit RUNTCP.
• To submit RUNTCP as a batch job, submit member RUNTCP.
• To submit RUNTCP as a started task, issue the MVS command S RUNTCP.
• 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.
To stop RUNTCP, issue the MVS command F RUNTCP,P CLEAR and answer YES to the reply.
This reply is generated if you have the PROMPT parameter specified in your IJTCFGxx member.
If RUNIUCV is to be stopped, it must be done after RUNTCP has terminated.
Diagnosis and Problem Reporting
Generally, Cisco needs the following documentation to help diagnose pro blem s thoroughly:
• TCP SNAP
• TCPEEP
• SVC dump of the Cisco IOS for S/390 and other related address spaces
• JCL output of the Cisco IOS for S/390 job
Obtaining GTF Output
The “Command Scripts” section of Chapter 2, “Cisco IOS for S/390 Operation” in the Cisco IOS for
S/390 System Management Guide provides a sample command script to start GTF and turn on
tracing.
Obtaining a SNAP Dump
As soon as a problem occurs, enter the following MVS command to your Cisco IOS for S/390
address space:
Cisco IOS for S/390 Release 2.0 Release Notes 33
SAS/C Usage Notes
F RUNTCP,TCP SNAP ALL
Obtaining a TCPEEP
Read the Cisco IOS for S/390 System Manag e m e nt for information to help you set up and submit
your trace address space and submit the TCPEEP TSO command.
Obtaining an SVC Dump
Read the IBM document MVS/ESA System Commands Reference Summary for the syntax of the
required DUMP commands. In particular, include all jobs involved in the problem using the
JOBNAME parameter of the DUMP command.
Obtaining JCL Output
Copy the JCL output of RUNTCP to a file using the following procedure:
• If you are using JES2/SDSF, type XDC beside the job listed in SDSF and follow the panel
instructions. This will let you copy to a data set of your choice. Generally, for every thousand
lines of job output you need three 3390 tracks.
• If you are using JES3, you may use FLASHER or a similar product to copy the RUNTCP output
to a data set in a similar fashion.
SAS/C Usage Notes
You must use the SAS 6.0 compiler, header f iles, object files, and runtime libraries to COMPILE and
LINK using the Cisco IOS for S/390 release 2.0 socket library
You can run a down-level (SAS 5.5) c program against Cisco IOS for S/390 release 2.0, and it can
be compiled and linked using the Cisco IOS for S/390 release 1.0 (or lower) socket library . Howe ver ,
it must be run using the SAS 5.5 runtime library. This program can then run over the Cisco IOS for
S/390 release 2.0 stack.
• Mixing any SAS 6.0 modules/headers with SAS 5.5 modules/headers will cause problems.
• Mixing any Cisco IOS for S/390 release 2.0 socket modules/headers with Cisco IOS for S/390
release 1.0 socket modules/headers will cause problems.
• Mixing runtime modules between releases will cause problems.
In addition, in SAS 6.0, LSCNCOM is always dynamically loaded. If linked with the application
program in 6.0, LSCNCOM will cause ABENDs.

One of the design goals of Cisco IOS for S/390 release 2.0 was to reduce the volume of message
output printed. SMF recording was enhanced to allow many of the events previously recorded only
by a message to be written to the SMF datasets.
Messages were renumbered so that each message now has a unique prefix, which includes both a
severity, and a component code to identify the area of the product which issued the message. The
LOGGING statement was added in IJTCFGxx to give you control over which messages will be
written to the log or to the console. Message routing can be controlled by severity and component,
using the LOGGING statement.
By default, many events previously reported by messages will go unreported in Cisco IOS for S/390
release 2.0. Some customers may prefer to continue seeing the same level of message output as in
previous releases of the product. The following LOGGING statement parameters are designed to
give a lev el of e v ent recording reasonably close to what was provided b y pre vious releases of Cisco
IOS for S/390:
LOGGING PRINT(ALL,(DN,RFEW),(IF,RFEWIS))
You may find that there are other defaults you will wish to change. The LOGGING parameters can
be changed dynamically by means of the new LOGGING command, making it easy to experiment
with different configurations.
For complete information on the LOGGING statement, and the LOGGING operator command, refer
to the Cisco IOS for S/390 documentation.
