The dielectric

I suppose it could be, depending on your definition of [n] and perhaps the material you’re asking about. In general, the dielectric constant is simply designated as [k]; but it’s not a particularly good symbol due to potential confusion. But why ask here? This site has little to do with that type of question. — Tom

rumba Mainframe file transfer

Assuming the question means “[too] long”, then shortening a name or path is probably the right choice.
.
The question is too vague. What is “mainframe”? (Is it S/390? AS/400?) What is the transfer that is being tried? What is the actual error message?
.

crtdevprt
As IBM gathers data from new printers from various manufacturers, they try to fill details on a set of web pages that are linked on the Information on Printers from Various Manufacturers. One of the linked pages is Information on Printers from HP. Search the HP page for [ 2025 ] or [ cp2025 ].
.
It takes a little reading on the printer pages,and some practice; but it can help.

Dynamic operator on WHERE statement

Okay, I’ve read it again, and I see what Phil is saying, and I’m back to what I thought the first time I read it. (I think.) Assuming that File_A always contains a DATE value in the first column, instead of a field name such as DATE_A, a single static SQL statement can work.

Where ( Operator_A = 'EQ' and Date_A = Date_B )
   or ( Operator_A = 'GT' and Date_A > Date_B )
   or ( Operator_A = 'LT' and Date_A < Date_B )
   or ( Operator_A = 'GE' and Date_A >= Date_B )
   or ( Operator_A = 'LE' and Date_A <= Date_B )
The question could still use some clarity perhaps. But dynamic isn’t needed if the description of FileA is understood. The business purpose would be better to describe the need than a technical description.

The first obvious item is “V5R1″. Not much can be done about that, I suppose; but it’s going to be hard getting reliable help with something that old.
.
However, your parameters don’t seem appropriate.
.
MFRTYPMDL(*HP5SI) would seem better changed to MFRTYPMDL(*HPCOLORLJ) since that’s what’s listed for HP CP2025s by IBM. If IBM lists a value, it should be used first instead putting in a guess. Use a guess after trying recommended values. First choice would actually be MFRTYPMDL(*LEXMARKC750), but I don’t know that it’s available for V5R1 unless added late by PTF.
.
Also, if it works, SYSDRVPGM(*IBMSNMPDRV) might be better than SYSDRVPGM(*HPPJLDRV). The CP2025 should support SNMP.
.
It’s hard to guess if those will give better CPI control. I don’t know of a good way to test for V5R1 nowadays.

Download software

You can’t. Excel and Windows are two different kinds of things. You don’t run any programs on “Excel”. Excel is a program; you don’t run programs ON Excel.
.
Windows is an operating System (OS). You can download programs to run on Windows; but you don’t download programs to ‘run on Excel’. In fact, Excel itself runs on Windows.
.
There is a kind of exception for various scripts or macros. Those might be specific to Excel (which runs on Windows). Those wouldn’t generally be referred to as “programs” and are rarely downloaded (though they might be).

Creation and dump of a user space iSeries
I’m trying to recreate an old user space with the next code:
.
What is that code referencing? If we can’t see the actual prototype, we can’t be sure what your code means. What are the definitions and values of your variables?
.
But it doesn’t look as if you can do anything differently. None of the spaces I create today show an EXTENDED DATA section. Those include spaces that I set additional attributes for with the QUSCUSAT API and those that have been fully auto-extended by system list APIs. Maybe someone else will have direct info.
.
Any chance that the Change Object Description (QLICOBJD) API is used against the object at some point? Or that something like object auditing is set for it? Or that IFS commands are used for I/O against it?
.

You should show us the code you are trying. If you don’t show us, we don’t know if our examples would be exactly the same as the code that isn’t working for you. It’d be a waste of everyone’s time.

Links in emails not working

You can try these out, hopefully one will work for you:

1) Try setting IE as the default browser in control panel. In control panel, click on the “set program access and computer defaults” then expand custom. In “choose a default web browser”, check on the “Internet Explorer” option and click the OK button.

2) Open Outlook then go to Actions > Junk E-mail > Junk E-mail Options
In the Options tab make sure the Disable links and other functionality in phishing messages box is unchecked.

3) Try resetting Web settings in Internet Explorer. Open Internet Explorer.
On the Tools menu, click Internet Options, the Advanced tab, and then click the Reset button. On the Programs tab, under Internet programs, click Set Programs, then “Set your Default Programs”, select Outlook and click “Set this program as Default”. Repeat for Internet Explorer. Click OK and close the dialogs.

Help required in writing a CL program which will monitor QSYSOPR msgq for specific h/w failure msg ID’s and shoot email ?
I don’t even get proper solution also from IBM from past 6 months.
.
I don’t quite understand. Have you been trying for 6 months with Management Central (MgtC)? This question thread is only 11 days old.
.
You have the STRWCH command, so you are at least at V5R4, i.e., on a supported release. There are at least three elements needed to handle failed monitors properly on any current release.
.
First, there are PTFs. If you’ve been working with IBM, they should have verified that you have the appropriate ones installed.
.
Second, the MgtC Properties need the ‘Automatically restart monitors on failed systems’ option checked.
.
But the third element is a tricky one. The “Name” of the monitor needs to include the word “&RESTART”. I’m not at all clear why that is a requirement, and it’s not easy to find. (I’m not sure I can even find the documentation again.)
.
So, for example, I have a Message Monitor and its Properties show:
.
Name: Test &RESTART
.
When a failure occurs, it has no problem starting back up automatically. In my current setup, I’m running MgtC on V5R3 as the Central system, with V5R3 and 6.1 as Endpoint systems. If you have V5R4, it should work better (with any needed PTFs).
.
For STRWCH, I don’t yet have good useful info on failures. I don’t any history on failed watches yet, so there’s not much I can say.
.
However, you need to understand that various failures are at least just as likely if you create your own function. And if you create your own, elements such as object (message queue) locks can cause problems.
.
Do you know anything about the causes of ‘Failed’ status? Are you running a single system or is it a network of AS/400s? If you have multiple AS/400s, what are the oldest releases you have?
.
