Re: IMS/DB on MVS 3.8J

Not much interest in this it appears :/

Or is it too daunting a task to get working? .. or both ? :)

I grabbed the manuals from bitsavers :

And am trying to do a DBDGEN, PSBGEN, working from the manuals.

Upon further investigation, I've found some test programs in 
 DLI.PGMLIB,
    TESTDLET    TESTGU      TESTISRT    TESTLIST    TESTLOAD


The source does not appear to be on the dasd's.  Does anybody have them?

'TESTLIST' runs wihout error, but I don't know where the output is going.  I tried ALLOC(SYSPRINT) DA(*), but that didn't produce anything.

I also found this message from Volker :
http://tech.groups.yahoo.com/group/turnkey-mvs/message/2364

"I managed to install DLI/360 on the Turnkey 4 system. Everything
seems to be alright now, but I have no way of testing the whole
thing, being IMS/DB or DLI/360 illiterate (or nearly. It is more
than 25 years ago that I last had to do with IMS)

Would somebody be so nice and help me to build an installation
verification procedure that allows me to check if DLI/360 is really
working under MVS (which I still doubt) and under MVT (which it
definitely should)"
