Hi, Joan.

There is a very good guide for implementing OSA-ICC type consoles in this IBM redbook: OSA-Express Integrated Console Controller Implementation Guide. (http://www.redbooks.ibm.com/abstracts/sg246364.html?Open)

They cover z/VM setup and usage in detail.

Good luck and have a good one.

z/VM version 5.2 - IBM z9 2096 BC processor 1 LPAR VM running multiple VSE guests

Two questions that I could use any advice, tips or tricks with:

We recently migrated to z/VM 5.2 and an IBM z9 BC processor:
1)    We recently switched our VM console from a dummy terminal to an OSA
connection.  We 'disc' VM on the dummy terminal and reconnected the console
on the PC.  That part worked fine.   We will not be IPL'ing VM until this
weekend so my question is: What do we need to do to have the OSA console be
recognized as the VM console during an IPL of VM?   For the dummy terminal,
we had the address hard assigned in the system configuration under Console
Definitions: Operator_Consoles....How do you do that same thing with an OSA
VM console?   An example would be helpful.   Thanks

2)    We are planning on moving our VM packs from one set of 3390 Disk
drives to another set of 3390 Disk drives.  Any hints on the steps that
should be followed to make this an easy transition?   Thanks in advance
