I am not from the coding background but with the help of this tutorial I was able to understand many things ... great explination and not just a theory you are using actual mainframe enviroment to explain the things which is great and its very interactive as well
Thank you so much for putting this video out. It was PERFECT. In learning VSAM basics, I searched for supplemental videos. Your video's the BEST one because you repeatedly show how submitting impacts the output in Command Prompt. Plus, you explain in a way that a beginner can easily understand and connect dots. Thanks again!
I have just become a fan of yours!!, It was indeed a refresher. I have close to 10 yrs of experience in Mainframes, but to gather the information or recall them quickly, then we need to refer or google,at times, so many things can be skipped or overlooked. But your video for me is complete. You will definitely get the fruits of your work. I wish you all the success brother in whatever you do in your life!!!
I am watching your videos from a period of time now and I must say that this is the best source I have found so far to learn mainframes. You put across all the concepts with so ease. Thank you so much and you are amazing 🙌
Huge fan of these videos. Currently in training for a job being a mainframe analyst, and watching these feels so much more accessible than sifting through pages of IBM documentation and Redbooks. Thank you!
Thank you so much for making wonderful videos. I'm a Mainframe tester looking to learn mainframe and your videos are the best in the internet to learn mainframe.
Hi kumar, First of all thanks for the wonderful refresher sessions in mainframe and i request you to please make some video about Mainframe Tools Like FTP, Changeman,Endevor,Xpeditor. This will help to refresh our subjects and practical experience......
@@meeraravichandran635 here is the video link on cics. I will also try to make few more with examples.. ruclips.net/p/PLLcYGaQ7eeuRzZzMLfUdH0-X0dR-bafpC
This half an hour video was very much useful and easy to understand each very point similarly can u do for cobol as well or suggest a link for cobol practical as theortical specially editing options how it works
Your video s are really helpful to me nice explaination, recently I got placed in reputed company but my technology they given MF.is it gud for future.
Hi Kumar, in other os, the idea of separate files is replaced by using a db system. The use of tables in db2 is not more quick, flexible and take less space? Or is because there are a lot of these files and they need to be maintained? Thank you!
DB2 uses a database management system, which allows a central storage of data that leads to mutipul user can access at a time & process the data . and another thing is Flexibility, DB2 is flexible and VSAM is not ? For Ex: what it would take to add an index to existing data. With DB2, you add the index, rebind the program, and DB2 will take advantage of it without having to change any application code. With VSAM, you would have to explicitly code requests to use the new index.
Hi sir , Thank you very much for practical video, i am working in project, your videos really made forrecollected all things once. we want to know about abend S000 pls make a video sir it is very helpful to us
In DB2 everything is in a table, but in vsam world everything is in vsam ksds? If I have a master ksds with the code as key and a field state, and a ksds with the names of the states (CO, COLORADO etc), is the right way to do so? Thank you!
System abend-Codes can be found online in IBM's documentations ! What do you mean by JCL Abend-Code, this does not exist ! When an abend-code is a user abend (not system), then you must read the book of Abend-Codes from the related context, e.g. COBOL, CICS, DB2, etc... SQL codes are user-codes reported in the DB2 documentation.
Please, make automation testing tutorial in mainframe . not exist nothing about this. For exemplo Jagacy. Help Thank very much for sharing your knowledge.
Hi Mr. Kumar, I'm going to move from Operation work to System Programming job, May I know what are the topics i can study so that I can gain a basic understanding what are the SP's duty.
Hello! Transitioning from Operations to System Programming (SP) in the mainframe world is an exciting shift. System Programmers play a pivotal role in the mainframe environment, ensuring the stability, efficiency, and evolution of the systems. Here are the primary topics and areas you should focus on to gain a basic understanding of the duties of a System Programmer: z/OS Overview: Familiarize yourself with the z/OS operating system, its architecture, and its components. Job Entry Subsystem (JES): Understand JES2 and JES3, their roles, job processing, job queues, and internal processes. Initialization and Tuning: Learn about system initialization parameters (IEASYSxx, IEFSSNxx) and how to tune them for system performance. Data Management: Dive into VSAM (Virtual Storage Access Method) - its types like KSDS, ESDS, and RRDS, and utilities like IDCAMS. and many more...
What's the interest to copy a DB2-Table (that is already a VSAM file) to a proper VSAM file ? In all cases to copy DB2 data you must use DB2 utilities for this.
Bro can you please tell me whether the below one is ESDS or RRDS: Associations Data------Treat.* 0 Data ----- treat.*.* I am confused..both esds RRDS looks same..how to identify the differences in listcat ?

Thanks sir pls do all modules like this...
Hi Kumar, can u make refresher on rexx and cics...
Kumra i like the session which is created by you JCl and VSAM. Please try to make video on DB2 i am waiting for your video
@Kumar
Very soon! Will be doing.
Useful video...I have a question, why we cannot use PS sequential files in CICS region and we use only VSAM files in CICS
In DB2 everything is in a table, but in vsam world everything is in vsam ksds?
If I have a master ksds with the code as key and a field state, and a ksds with the names of the states (CO, COLORADO etc), is the right way to do so? Thank you!
Could you please add something on accessing other file formats like JSON, CSV, XML etc
How the data changes can be saved in view mode ?
hi ..y cant you make vedio for abend codes for all cobol,jcl,db2,cics,sql like that.if u have already pls share the link..thank you!!

Hai bro
Bro, do u have pdf for this like u have uploaded for jcl cobol
Please, make automation testing tutorial in mainframe . not exist nothing about this. For exemplo Jagacy.
Help
Thank very much for sharing your knowledge.
Thanks! Mike.. Will try to make one video on it.. Yeah i remember the Jagacy automation...
Can you also make this type of video for most commonly used Utilities as well

Hi Kumar sir, can you teach us about mainframe storage?? I'm looking for storage part. But no one has done any video of it. Please consider my request
I will try sibi. thanks! for your inputs.
How to fined errors and how to rectify the that errors...?
How to see VSAM properties if the VSAM cluster is a pre existing cluster?
Using LISTCAT
Can you give a method on how to copy data from a DB2 table to a VSAM file ?
What's the interest to copy a DB2-Table (that is already a VSAM file) to a proper VSAM file ? In all cases to copy DB2 data you must use DB2 utilities for this.
Why do you have the //SYSOUT DD-card in all your jobs ?
This DD statement will help to see the output generated during execution of the job to spool..
@@KumarITChannel To my knowledge, this DD-name is user for COBOL Display output and for the SORT-program. Kan you give another example pls!
Bro can you please tell me whether the below one is ESDS or RRDS:
Associations
Data------Treat.*
0 Data ----- treat.*.*
I am confused..both esds RRDS looks same..how to identify the differences in listcat ?
RRDS - You can read the records randomly and it has index
ESDS - It's a sequential & mainly used in IMS, CICS & DB2
@@KumarITChannel Thanks 👍
Hello sir, when copy the dataset from psfile to ksds only employee id is copied but name is not copied .can u help out
Hello Anu, check the file properties of PS & KSDS file i.e. IF PS FILE IS 80 length same should be for KSDS ...

HI SIR MY PROGRAM WILL GOING TO LOOP WHEN I WRITE VOLUMES STATEMENT PLEASE SUGGEST ME.
ANY COMMENT
sir what is share option ? sir
SHAREOPTIONS in a VSAM tells about the access that can be allowed. ex : read , write , open and how many users can open a dataset at a time,...
Hi
Please let us play fast this is too slow
Good explanation of VSAM thanks!!
