gtps4m1b | System Generation |
The tables in this section contain lists of the fixed file data record types, including main storage resident records (which have their backup copies on file) that are required by the system programs. In addition to these system records, users will have their own application fixed file data records to include in their database. It should be noted that several of the different system record types are associated with various system packages and components, which are optional. For example, the various records associated with MPIF are only required if MPIF support is defined via the various SIP macros.
Each fixed file record type, including both system and application record types, requires a SIP RAMFIL macro. Inputs to the RAMFIL macro include the FACE record type and the number of records to be allocated. A minimum of 10 % extra records (coded as SPARES in RAMFIL macros) is recommended to allow for expansion. Lists of system utilized data records are provided in Table 16 and Table 18.
Use care when adding or deleting SPARE records. The IPAT and #PROGn area must be synchronized. IBMPAL is the segment used to allocate ECB-controlled programs. It creates both the IPAT and the SAL table. It also assigns program ordinal numbers in #PROGn. Ordinal numbers are assigned in the order that programs are coded. Once a program is assigned an ordinal number, it is important that the assignment never change. If a program ordinal number is changed, that program must be reloaded and all programs that enter it without using the NAME= parameter must be reloaded. For example:
IBMPAL #PROG1 ordinal ------------------------------------------------------------- SPARE OLD1 0 COSY,FR,OPTIONS=(KEY0,MONTC,RESTRICT) 1 BXAX,FR,FUNC=SBFCAP 2 CCKP,FR,OPTIONS=(KEY0,MONTC,RESTRICT) 3 COHA,FR,OPTIONS=(KEY0,MONTC,RESTRICT) 4 BWMS,CR,OPTIONS=(KEY0,MONTC,RESTRICT) 5 BWMU,TV,BWMS,1 6
In this example, if CCKP is obsoleted, it should not be deleted. CCKP should be replaced with a SPARE. If it is not replaced with a spare, COHA becomes ordinal 3 and every program allocated after COHA gets assigned a different #PROG1 ordinal number (PROG ordinal shift).
The same problem occurs if a new segment is added instead of replacing a SPARE. All segments below the added segment get a new ordinal number.
In most cases the proper way to add a segment is to find a SPARE and change it. The proper way to delete a segment is to replace it with a SPARE.
The analysis is more complicated when the program being deleted or added contains a FUNC= or an SS= switch.
A similar kind of example could be described for the FUNC parameter that specifies function switches.
#PROGn is initialized when you do a full load. What program goes into a given #PROG ordinal is controlled by the IPAT. The IPAT is created from IBMPAL and any user input decks. To avoid full loads for this reason manage SPAREs carefully.
Many of the data records require initialization before starting up the system. The initialized data records are generated on 1 or more pilot tapes, which are loaded onto the online packs as discussed in System Generation Process.
The records requiring initialization fall into three basic categories:
For categories 2 and 3, only 1 skeleton record must be initialized; for example, a standard data/message file (SDMF), and the required number can be generated on a pilot tape via the facilities of the system test compiler (STC).
The contents of the first 4 bytes of a data record (standard header) are:
X'2100'
B'0011000011001100'
C'WW'
2134 (decimal number)
Table 16 contains a list of the system-required fixed file data record types arranged by system function. Included is the following information:
Also indicated is the offline (MVS) program used to initialize each data record type. TPF provides the following offline programs for system record initialization:

Notes:
|
Miscellaneous record types exist because the file address compute (FACE) program cannot allocate a single record of a specified type. Applications that require a single record should use a record from the appropriate miscellaneous record section. SIP RAMFIL macros for all three record types with a sufficient number of records are required. System required miscellaneous records use record types #IBMMS, #IBMML, #IBMMP4, and #IBMM4. See SYSEQ for more information about the contents of #IBMMS, #IBMML, #IBMMP4, and #IBMM4.
The terms PARS and IPARS, which appear in the Area column stand for the original applications that run under TPF and are called the Passenger Airline Reservation System and the International Passenger Airline Reservation System. A number of the miscellaneous records are only required for users of one or the other of these applications. In addition, World Trade users should refer to the appropriate IPARS version of the referenced documents. The Fare Quote package referred to is the IBM program product that was added to the original PARS application.
Table 17 contains the system record types located in the global
area. These records are allocated as fixed file record types of
#GLOBL. They are main storage resident with a backup copy on
disk. Users should add their global area records to this list. A
SIP RAMFIL macro for the #GLOBL record type is required. In addition, 2
or more records must be included in the #GLOBL area for the core allocator
record (see TPF System Installation Support
Reference for more information about global areas). Table 18 contains all of the records checked by the FACE
table generator. Table 19 contains all of the records checked by the SIP Stage I
assembly.

These notes apply to both the records checked by the FACE table generator and those checked during Stage I.
Notes:
For 4KB record size, calculate as follows:
Number_of_general_data_sets/31
with a minumum of 2 × number_of_processors
The maximum number of records is 255 for each processor.
Notes:
For the BSS subsystem, #OLDx records are required; the minimum number allowable is defined by the following equation. For other subsystems, users can choose not to allocate any #OLDx records if they do not plan to use the E-type loader on that subsystem.
Minimum number of #OLDx records required = 35 + (#CPUs genned × 200) + (reserved) (recommended number of available records) (32 × [MAX_NUM_ACTIVE_LOADSETS / ECR_NUM_ENTRIES)] (Max. (IBM default = 1000) (Defined in CPUs) C$IDSECR = 203) Round up the figure in square brackets to a whole number.
You may need to define additional #OLDx records because C load modules use a minimum of 2 #OLDx records each and can be larger than 4 KB. Use the following formula to estimate the number of additional #OLDx records that you need. The formula can be used in either of the following ways:
This needs to be calculated only for the maximum number of C load modules that will exist in loadsets at a given time. The size of the C load module (size_of_module) is the offline size produced by the linkage editor. Each directory record can hold approximately 500 entries.
The following formula is an approximation; it is not intended to give an exact number. It can be used on from 1 to n number of C load modules.
Number of #OLDx records for one or more C load modules = ((sum_of_C load module_sizes/4000) + (3 * number_of_C load modules))
Some examples help to explain this formula.
Number of #OLDx records = ((1000000/4000) + (3 * 1)) = 250 + 3 = 253
Number of #OLDx records = ((1624/4000) + (3 * 1)) = 0.406 + 3 = 3.4 = 4
Number of #OLDx records = ((289352/4000) + (3 * 50)) = 72.338 + 150 = 222.338 = 223
You will need to allocate additional #OLDx records if you plan to use the E-type loader to load programs with ADATA files for use by the TPF Assembler Debugger for VisualAge Client. To estimate the number of additional #OLDx records that need to be allocated, do the following:
Number of #OLDx records for BAL ADATA files = (number of BAL programs) + ((sum of sizes of object modules) / 80) Number of #OLDx records for BAL ADATA files = (number of BAL programs) + ((sum of sizes of source files) / 1200) Number of #OLDx records for BAL ADATA files = (number of BAL programs) * 40
Number of #OLDx records for load module ADATA files = (2 * (number of load modules containing members with ADATA files)) + ((sum of sizes of object modules) / 80) Number of #OLDx records for load module ADATA files = (2 * (number of load modules containing members with ADATA files)) + ((sum of sizes of source files) / 1200)
The size of the C load module is needed as input to the formula. It is the offline size produced by the linkage editor.
The following formula is an approximation; it is not intended to give an exact number. It can be used on from 1 to n number of C load modules.
Number of #XPRGn records for one or more C load modules = ((sum_of_C load module_sizes/4000) + (2 * number_of_C load modules))
Some examples help to explain this formula.
Number of #XPRGn records = ((85296/4000) + (2 * 1)) = 21.324 + 2 = 23.324 = 24
Number of #XPRGn records = ((1624/4000) + (2 * 1)) = 0.406 + 2 = 2.406 = 3
Number of #XPRGn records = ((289352/4000) + (2 * 50)) = 72.338 + 100 = 172.338 = 173
Number of #PVRn records = (number of #PROGn records) / PVRMAXE for a program base
Note that PVRMAXE is defined in IDSPVR; the current value of PVRMAXE is 127.
To calculate the required number of records, use the following formula:
(300 ECBs per second * the average size of the commit scope for each ECB (100 KB) * TPF queue manager checkpoint interval(5 seconds)) + (1000 MQPUT/MQGET requests per second * the average size of a message (4 KB) * TPF queue manager checkpoint interval(5 seconds)) * 1.5 (factor for padding)
For example, (300 * 100 KB * 5 = 150 000 KB) + (1000 * 4 KB * 5 = 20 000 KB) * 1.5 = 255 MB.
When the TPF system is cycled to NORM state, the CUPH program copies the contents of the #IPSFB fixed file records to a POSIX file called tpfva.fil, which is found in directory /tpf.va. This file is a duplicate of the fixed file records. It can be transferred to another system by using the TPF-supported Trivial File Transfer Protocol (TFTP) or File Transfer Protocol (FTP). When the file has been transferred, it can be used by any user program.
To turn off positive feedback support, remove the #IPSFB records.
Number of #APRGx records for BAL ADATA files = (number of BAL programs) + ((sum of sizes of object modules) / 80) Number of #APRGx records for BAL ADATA files = (number of BAL programs) + ((sum of sizes of source files) / 1600) Number of #APRGx records for BAL ADATA files = (number of BAL programs) * 40
Number of #APRGx records for load module ADATA files = (2 * (number of load modules containing members with ADATA files)) + ((sum of sizes of object modules) / 80) Number of #APRGx records for load module ADATA files = (2 * (number of load modules containing members with ADATA files)) + ((sum of sizes of source files) / 1200)
