WSP zTPF Migration Cheat

Sheet
Viewing the Worldspan console

TPFCONS (from VM4) this will take you to the real time consoles
o PF1 will bump through all available consoles
o PF2 will allow you to review the console
o PF3 get back to the Main Window
o PF4 takes you back out to CMS
o PF7-PF14 will access each of the Production processors (A thru H)
Verify the TPFCONS exec on your A-Disk allows you to view multiple
WSPOPERx consoles in case one has reached its maximum number of users:
o TPFCONS EXEC should look like this:
/**/
ARG Ver
If Ver = ''

then Ver = ''

'VMYIAMOP WSPOPER'Ver
This would allow you to do TPFCONS, TPFCONS 1, TPFCONS 2, and
TPFCONS 3 to access either WSPOPER (TPFCONS), WSPOPER1
(TPFCONS 1), WSPOPER2 (TPFCONS 2), or WSPOPER3 (TPFCONS 3)
Grant TPFCONS access to a user that doesnt have it
o This only works for TPFCONS, and the person granting access must be
an authorized user for the particular console (WSPOPER, WSPOPER1,
WSPOPER2, WSPOPER3) they are trying to grant access for:
o

From TPFCONS command line enter:

ADDUSER <userid> or ADDTPF <userid>
where <userid> = the users VM4 ID

VISTA into WSP Online

You will need a Production WSP sign in. Here is a link to the form required to
request a Production login ID. At one point in the form it asks for a userid to
model this one after. For that use ???????.

To send entries to a particular processor

//SMPxZfunction (Example: //SMPAZDSYS or //SMPBZSTAT)
Bias yourself to a particular processor
ZDWGT TCMP LIT-leid CPU-x
(Example: ZDWGT TCMP LIT02022C CPU-A)

Bias entries to Certification Processor

For the co-existence testing, CPU-A will be placed in certification state. To

control whether a terminals entries are routed to the processor where
certification has been enabled, the following entries are used:
o YCERT ON can be done from an individuals terminal to route their
entries to the certification processor
o YCERT OFF can be done from an individuals terminal to turn off the
routing of their messages to the certification processor

Interrogating the Master Control File (MCF)

The WSP Master Control File (MCF) contains the following information about
every file (both 4.1 and z/TPF) on the Worldspan system (segments, headers,
macros, components, etc.):
o File Name includes version and file type
o System WSP (for 4.1) or WSZ (for z/TPF)
o Status O for Passed Regression or later, T for LTCUST only
o Implementation Number
o Load Date
o Programmer ID
o Online indicator has ONLINE text next to the current online version

Entry on VM4 to display MCF information for a segment is MCFWSPQ

<progname>:
MCFWSPQ CVA0

Some additional execs have been written to return different information from
the MCF. They are:

XMCF EXEC
Same as MCFWSPQ, except it will:

Sort the components by date

Create TEMP MCFOUT file on your A disk (until next time you
do XMCF entry)
XEDIT TEMP MCFOUT and leave terminal in XEDIT so you can FF
NEWAME if desired

VM4 entry format:

Example:

XMCF component
XMCF TDMO05

ZCHK EXEC
Given a BSCR name/version and proposed load date, it will:

Scan each component of the BSCR

Find TPF4.1 and zTPF versions of each module for the load date

Compare BSCR vs. Module versions and note differences

Create TEMP ZCHKOUT on your A disk (until next time you do
ZCHK entry)

VM4 entry format:

ZCHK nameBSvv date

Example:

ZCHK TDMNBSCZ 9/17/14

ZCHK XEDIT
Same as ZCHK EXEC, except you create a list of BSCRs/dates and it will
check each one.
Example:
(in XEDIT)
format:

XEDIT name type

Insert one line for each program in progBSvv date
TDMNBSCZ 20140917
TRI2BSC9 9/17/14
TRI7BSCF 9/17

(in XEDIT, on command line):

ZCHK

ZVERS EXEC
Given a program name and VPARS system, it will:

Retrieve program information from VPARS system

Get WSZ version of each component
Compare MCF vs. BSCR versions and note any differences

VM4 entry format:

ZVERS prog vpars

Example:

ZVERS XIIH LTCUST

ZVERS XEDIT
Same as ZVERS EXEC, except you create a list of program names and
it will check each one.
Example:
(in XEDIT)

XEDIT name type

Insert one line for each program:
TDMN
TRI2
TRI7

(in XEDIT, on command line):

Investigating a dump with the dump analyzer

If you have not done so already, install the zTPF Dump Analyzer. Here is a
link to the install instructions:
zTPF zDump Analyzer - A to Z
You will then have an Icon on your desktop that will allow you to access
dumps that have been post-processed
o You will have a list of dump databases to choose from and for LTCUST
you will choose wsp_test

Delete Dumps when the Dump Database is Full

If the Dump Database is Full, use this Link to delete duplicate dumps from the
file system
