I see a mix in the directory entry for VMTEST:
- you seem to use DEDICATE to pass the VM volumes to VMTEST
- but use MDISK to pass the Linux volumes
You could use DEDUCATE for all of them
A lesson about devices (something I explained several times when teaching.
At the time there was not a single exception, now there are some)).
The rule:
A device can be given to 1 "person" only at a time. "person" can be CP
itself or a virtual machine, never both.
- When you give the device to CP itself, it can maybe be shared,
depending on the device type
- for a disk, it can then host minidisks. Command: ATTACH xx
SYSTEM, or via SYSTEM CONFIG (CPOWNED or USER_VOLUME_INCLUDE)
- for a 3270 terminal: you can then logon/loggoff. Command:
ENABLE rdev
- ...
- To give a device to a virtual machine: ATTACH or DEDICATE is
used.
2007/6/22, Stracka, James (GTI) <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>:
Or LINK fullpack ucb ucb M (MW or RR) on in the PROFILE EXEC of VMTEST
if you have a fullpack minidisk holder id.
We LINK RR for 1st level volumes that VMTEST is to have READ only.
VMTEST volumes all start VM2 (for VM 2nd Level) and LINK them MW.
Each to his own.

Anne,
You need to detach the volumes from SYSTEM on the 1st level VM That way
they can be attached to VMTEST to be used 2nd level.
good luck
