Dontcha love it when the platform stays and the management leaves. :-)
-----Original Message----- From: IBM Mainframe Discussion List [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Pat Mihalec Sent: Tuesday, January 29, 2008 3:50 PM To: IBM-MAIN@BAMA.UA.EDU Subject: Re: Question on 64 bit Thanks, we have not done any upgrades to the Mainframe in over two years. My memory cells were very fuzzy on this. I had changed the memory but had not IPL'd. We just did that now and all is looking good. The management that was here has left. The decision has been made that the cpu will remain here for at least 3 more years and the current management agrees living on unsupported software for that long is not a good idea. Now I get to take off my new Unix hat and put the MVS hat back on.

And you don't even absolutely __need__ to do a deactivate and activate, just change to 64 bit mode in the LOAD member. If your LPAR defination has XSTOR in 64 bit mode, you'll just get a whining message at IPL time and the XSTOR is ignored. -- John McKown Senior Systems Programmer HealthMarkets Keeping the Promise of Affordable Coverage Administrative Services Group Information Technology The information contained in this e-mail message may be privileged and/or confidential.
