Hi all,
reading some really old posts I discovered that about 15 years ago there was a
370 emulator named OPEN/370, the ancestor of FLEX-ES.
It was a Linux application and delivered over 1 MIPS on a Pentium 90 (excellent
performance).
I wonder if it was an open source program (as the name seems to suggest), and in
this case if anyone has a link to download it.

Thanks

Hello!
I can safely confirm that Hercules and Cygwin do work together on Windows
Seven. I grabbed my original checkout of the source code from my Linux box,
made sure it was still up to date, re-ran the configure arrangements and off
I went. There were the usual complaints, read warnings regarding syntax but
everything works.

Fish, you'd know better then I was there any predicted drift when we were
(supposed) to have moved from Cygwin and Linux, to a native MSVC tool series
and Linux?

This release of Windows Seven is 64 bit native so I wasn't surprised
regarding the whole business regarding the procedures for rebuilding the
binaries.

Now regarding networking, Fish have you released your specialties for the 64
bit environment? (And would you know if the gangs behind WinPCap have
released the same for 64 bit?)

This was done on a (reasonably) up to date Windows Seven setup on a Dell
Inspirion 1545 Laptop, who arrived here on the 11 of this month.

Incidentally the 1.7 release of Cygwin is considered to be a beta as they
are working towards a release of that one. When that happens anyone still
running Windows 98SE will be unfortunately out of luck.

Help:

I have tried now several times to install Debian Linux/390 on Hercules
and keep coming up with a problem during the Linux/390 install phase.

Where I am expecting Linux/390 to find and load partitions on my 120 and
121 drives, the procedure does not find any partitions to load.

To see if I actually have 120 and 121 drives, I issue devlist under
Hercules and sure enough, they are where the config file says they are.

It was suggested that I run dmesg from the shell on the install console
for Linux/390 and I have done so, but I don't see any reference to any
DASD and in particular nothing about either 120 or 121.

Is there any specific information I would expect from dmesg that would
confirm their existence? Or is there any other command that I could use
from the console to verify they are or are not there?

Or, is there any other command(s) I can issue to allocate these files,
which I created as 3390-3 disks using Hercules' dasdinit?

Any suggestions? Anyone out there successfully install Debian Linux/390
on Hercules that can provide some advice?

Suggest you get the Mainframe parameters correct first - since you can ping,

Only after that and it still doesn't work you can move on to the LCS.



But for starters - remove the extra device in the configuration,







PROFILE.tcpip

---------------



IN ZOS you don't put the telnet parms is the TCPIP profile but in the
TN3270 Profile. You should be getting a message about that.



Remove the section telnet parms.

Remove the gateway parms and the default net parms and use the following:



BEGINROUTES

ROUTE 10.1.11 255.255.255.0 = ETH1 MTU 1492 (that's your local lan)

ROUTE DEFAULT 10.1.11.11 ETH1 MTU 1492  (that's your gateway to theworld)


ENDROUTES



In the reserved ports section you are reserving port 23 for a server called
TN3270



Is the job are you starting TN3270 or TN3270A?

Name and port  that you reserve must match the job you submit



So check the startup to see that you are starting the proper procedure







In the TN3270 Configuration you have some errors.

Not sure how critical that is But I modifies yours parameter file and it now
looks like this.

try it.

Tom,

Hmmm... SLES has both devices, eth0 and eth1, defined to it at 10.1.11.21
and 10.11.1.24, respectively, and your MVS has 10.1.11.24 defined to it,
too? My first guess is that you need to enable proxy_arp and give your MVS a
different IP address. There may be a way to dedicate one of the NIC's to
Hercules, but I have to toss that one out to the group. But, if SLES is
reporting both NICs and is reporting an IP address for each, that pretty
much has to mean that SLES has both and Hercules has none.

Your zip file didn't make it (Fish explained why in an earlier post), so I'm
working blind here, but I will hazard the following offering:

1) Change the IP address on the TCPIP under MVS to something new, like
10.1.11.25.

2) Verify you can still ping and X3270 to MVS at the new address

3) Enable proxy_arp on one (or both) NIC's:
sysctl -w net.ipv4.conf.eth0.proxy_arp=1
sysctl -w net.ipv4.conf.eth1.proxy_arp=1

4) Then try VISTA from across the wire to MVS.

Good Luck,

Jim

Yes:


First (non-fatal) problem: "cckd invalid keyword: cache":

It appears you are using our "sample" configuration file which unfortunately
contains an error. We apologize for that. Just like the error message says,
"cache" is indeed an invalid keyword.

The error has already been corrected in current SVN and will formally appear
in the next release (hopefully).


Second (fatal) problem: "HHCCF091S Invalid AUTOMOUNT directory: "/tapes":

The directory specified in the SAMPLE configuration file you are using was
"/tapes" (i.e. the "AUTOMOUNT +/tapes" statement). On the host operating
system you are using (Apple Leopard OS X 10.6.1), path specifications
starting with "/" are ABSOLUTE paths, not relative paths.

The directory it is looking for is "/tapes".

The directory it is NOT looking for is "/Users/nigeldefreitas/tapes/".

The two directories (paths) are completely different from each other. They
are NOT the same thing.


> I tried creating a folder called "tapes" in the location
> specified,

Actually no, you did not.  :)

You THOUGHT you did, but you actually didn't.  :)


> but that had no effect. I commented the LCS line but that had
> no effect either: # 0440.2 LCS -n /dev/net/tun 192.168.200.2

The LCS device statement does not have anything to do with the error that
was reported.

LCS devices have nothing to do with the error you are reporting.


> I'm not sure why I get the tapes message even after I manually
> create the tapes folder in OS X.

You created your tapes directory in the wrong place.  :)

Either: a) create the directory in the correct location, or: b) remove the
AUTOMOUNT statement from your configuration file.

Or better yet, create your OWN configuration file instead of trying to use
our sample (which is only meant to be illustrative but not necessarily
correct/valid for anyone's particular system).

Welcome to Hercules, Nigel. We hope your stay is a pleasant one.

Please disable all OUTBOUND, repeat, *>> OUTBOUND <<* checksum offloading:

Start -> Settings -> Network Connections.

Right-click on your Local Area Connections icon, and select Properties.

Click the "Configure" button for your adapter. You should then see a
Properties dialog for your adapter.

Click the Advanced tab.

On the Advanced page, you should see a box on the left listing many
properties, and a small combobox on the right labeled "Value".

The properties related to Checksum Offloading are named differently for each
different type (manufacturer) of network adapter, but they are probably
named similarly to "TCP/IP Offload".

For each 'Property' in your list related to Checksum Offloading (left side
of dialog), click the property to select it.

The "Value" box (right side of dialog) will probably have three entries in
it:

   *  None
   *  Rx TCP/IP Checksum
   *  Tx TCP/IP Checksum
   *  Tx/Rx TCP/IP Checksum

(Note again that YOUR values may be slightly different from mine.)

What you want to do is select the entry for either "Rx TCP/IP Checksum" -or-
"None".

The idea here is you do NOT want the "Tx TCP/IP Checksum" nor the " Tx/Rx
TCP/IP Checksum"!!

Repeat: you do NOT want "Tx"!!

You *DO* want either "Rx" -or- "None".

Repeat: you DO want to either disable *all* offloading -OR- enable *only*
"Rx"!!

Do this for every property you see related to Checksum Offloading. (Again,
your list of properties may be different from mine. Each adapter
manufacturer is different).

Click the 'OK' button. Your adapter should then reconfigure itself.

If you want, you can reboot just to be safe/sure.

Then retry your TT32Test ping test again and/or retry your Hercules.

Please let us know if the above helps you or not.

Thanks.

Please don't do that (I mean.. please no-one apply this to SVN !)

This will very likely break any ESA/390 guest running ZSIE if there is
more than 2GB of storage. The problem is that the page mask is being
applied at the WRONG time. The *absolute* page frame can very well lie
beyond the addressable limit of the guest. Therefore calling
'NEW_MAINADDR' in ESA/390 mode in SIE mode and masking it with the
*guest* page frame mask is going to give you the wrong page frame if the
page frame is above 2GB.

The reason for the 'apfra' trick is that we are using regs->dat.rpfra
which is computed during SIE translation (that is, when the DAT
translation is performed on the HOST side of SIE).. That's what

      apfra=APPLY_PREFIXING(regs->dat.rpfra,regs->PX);

is all about.. (regs->dat.rpfra is the real page frame with the *HOST*
page frame mask applied - not the guest page frame mask !)

Now, why this is NOT working for a S/370 guest running on a ESA/390 host
is still something I have to figure out..

Jim,

I have attached a "zip" file with 5 TXT files that contains the
information on my configuration.

The SLES configuration is as follows"
eth0 Firewall disabled MTU 1500 10.1.11.21 mask of 255.255.255.0
eth1 Firewall disabled MTU 1500 10.1.11.24 mask of 255.255.255.0

I can both PING and TRACERT to the two addresses listed above.

I am able to logon to MVS from an X3270 session running under SLES.
There were no errors when I start TCPIP or TN3270 address spaces under
MVS. It seems to be related to trying to connect through either NIC
adapter. I even tried FTP and received an error that the connection was
rejected by remote host.

Cheers,
Tom

Tom,

     I hate it when that happens.  Conceptually, everything is the same, except
for one little thing, but it just won't work.   Alas, I'm afraid were going to
have ask a bunch of silly questions to tease out the answer.

1) Is the LCS device defined on a pair of channels, presumably E20 and E21?

2) When your TCPIP is running under MVS under Hercules, does a tun0 device show
up in your routing table on the SLES system?

3) Does the TCPIP software come up cleanly under MVS.  (I'm more of a VM person,
so I'm used to looking at the console of the TCPIP virtual machine.  I have to
believe that all that good information is captured somewhere in MVS.  Maybe
SYSPRINT?)

4) Can you ping the MVS machine from the SLES machine?

5) Can you access the MVS machine with an X3270 client from the SLES machine?

If you can let us know, I'll scratch my head a bit and see whether I conjure up
some possible things to check.

Jim

BTW, VISTA is *very* nifty.

Dave,
as usual you're right.
If I IPL VM/ESA under z/VM 5.3 Evaluation (or 4.4 as well), SET MACHINE 370
fails (SIE for ESAME doesn't support 370 mode).
Your suspect of a broken Hercules is right; I took one of the last snaphots and
modified the following modules:

opcode.h

old code: (line 988)
+ (uintptr_t)(_aaddr)) \

new code:
+ (uintptr_t)((_aaddr) & PAGEFRAME_PAGEMASK)) \

dat.h

old code: (lines 2238-2263)
regs->tlb.main[ix]       = NEW_MAINADDR (regs, addr, apfra);
regs->tlb.main[ix]    = NEW_MAINADDR (regs, addr, apfra);

new code:
regs->tlb.main[ix]       = NEW_MAINADDR (regs, addr, aaddr);
regs->tlb.main[ix]    = NEW_MAINADDR (regs, addr, aaddr);

and now IPL of VM/SP under VM/ESA works like a charm.
Not sure if something other is no more working .. ;-)

Let's hope that our great experts may fix officially the bug.

Regards.

Paul

Can you send the first 60 or so lines from the LOG as Hercules comes up.

Also the relevant lines from the configuration file.



Also your network configuration and Ip addresses.



Subnet mask - gateway address - host computer address and guest operating
system address



Finally - The beginroute section from the TCPIP configuration

Hmmm! Will try with Herc 3.05 then.. I failed few times, but all my

That's right, but there are lots of "gotchas" I think ESA will object
unless the hardware type is set to a model that has 370 support in the
SIE. The VM should have issued a "SET MACHINE 370" or have an approriate
directory statement. It most be an old version of VM/ESA as support was
removed at some point. I don't remember when. Any way if all the above
caveats are true then the the combination of CP and SIE should allow 370
guests to IPL in VMs.

I suspect something is broken in SIE in Hercules but that probably needs
Ivan to look at it.

Alexey,
you can IPL VM/370 in a 370 virtual machine under VM/ESA 2.4 provided that:

1) Hercules works correctly (version 3.05 is OK; for actual version I'm
waiting....:-( ).
2) You must give the command SET MACH 370 in the virtual machine, or define
MACHINE 370 in directory.
3) VM/ESA 2.4 doesn't sense correctly 3350 dasds, so you have to define them in
HCPRIO and regen CP nucleus.

VM/ESA 2.4 can be IPL'd only in ESA/390 mode.

Regards.

My  apologies for breaking into the conversation. I had the impression
that  370  guests  could  only  IPL on VM/ESA 370 feature (which never
reached   version   2.4),   as  virtual  machine  provides  underlying
architecture  (that  is - ESA/390). What you are saying (or, at least,
what  I  understood)  is  that  you  can IPL VM/ESA 2.4 in Herc (using
ARCHMODE  ESA/390) and then IPL VM/370 in a 370 virtual machine? Is it
correct?

Jim, many thanks for your suggestions; but IMHO there's a bug in Hercules,
because with Hercules 3.05 I can IPL quite a lot of 370 guests under VM/ESA 2.4
(DOS/360, DOS/VS, OS/MVT, OS/MFT, OS/VS1, VM/370, VM/SP, MVS, CMS of VM/SP).
Starting from Revision Date: Mon, 8 Dec 2008 20:38:20 UTC to the last CSV
available when I try to IPL a 370 guest I get the error described.

I could try to modify the modified sources but I'm not too skilled in C++

Paolo,

     I've seen this in z/VM when IPL'ing a VM/ESA guest on real hardware.  My
circumstances were admittedly different, but could you check a couple things and
let the group know?

1) What is your terminal CONMODE setting?   To IPL some operating systems, there
is a requirement that the CONMODE be 3270.

2) How much memory is defined in the 370 mode guest that you are trying to IPL?
Just in case there is some peculiar side effect, I'd recommend that you limit it
to 16MB before trying to IPL.

As an aside, there was a bug in VM/ESA up to about 2.4 that prevented 2nd level
VM's from manipulating tape drives.  (This created a real challenge for me in
disaster recovery exercise several years ago.)  The details are fuzzy, but I
remember we had to map the guest's disks to the first level directory and
restore them at first level before we could IPL the restored system at second
level.

                                                                              
One last tidbit:  the following comes from the help page for HCP453W:

Programmer Response:  To determine the reason for the loop, examine the
program-check information in page zero of your virtual storage.  If this error
occurred immediately after the IPL command, the problem may be that you are
trying to run a 370 guest in XA mode, or the reverse (issue the QUERY SET
command to find out the current MACHINE setting).  In this case, issue the SET
MACHINE command to select the proper mode.


That's all the light I can shed; I hope there's something useful in it.  Good
Luck.

Jim

Any ideas what I'm doing incorrectly here? I tried creating a folder
called "tapes" in the location specified, but that had no effect. I
commented the LCS line but that had no effect either: # 0440.2 LCS -n
/dev/net/tun 192.168.200.2

I installed tun tap, but didn't perform any additional configuration
(just installed with defaults by double-clicking the package). I'm not
sure why I get the tapes
message even after I manually create the tapes folder in OS X. I'm
using this command to launch "sudo hercules -f hercules.cnf" where my
hercules.cnf file is located here:
/Users/nigeldefreitas/Projects/Hercules - Mainframe Emulator/conf/

Thanks.

Hello!
Mike, the link expired. You might want to try again with that. In addition
the site wanted me to register for it. (Which I am not about to do.)

Kayhan,

     It sounds like you are trying to read from your write side, and write to
your read side.  In a CTC connection, there are two channels, in your case, E20
and E21, to provide a read path and a write path for the network traffic.  By
convention, TCPIP reads from the lower address and writes to the upper address. 
This results pretty quickly in both ends reading from the E20 CTC and writing to
the E21 CTC.  My first thought to fix this paralleled yours - switch the
connections somewhere:

> CTCA 0E21 COUPLED BY LINUX43 0E20
> CTCA 0E20 COUPLED TO LINUX43 0E21

It didn't work for me, either.  But, I found (with some help from the folks
here) that there is a 0/1 switch in the PROFILE TCPIP device definitions for a
CTC

> DEVICE DEVÞ0E20 CTC E20LINK   ETH0     CTC 0

Try

> DEVICE DEVÞ0E20 CTC E20LINK   ETH0     CTC 1

and couple the CTCA's straight (E20 to E20 and E21 to E21) and see what happens.

Good Luck,

Jim
