Hi Mike
I am not a VM expert by any means, but here goes: A user issues 3 SMSG commands to a disconnected machine. This service machine has the ability to send files (monitor and account data) to MVS or write files to a users CMS disk. The SMSG issues a TRANSFER to the service machine providing the file names and their locations. In this instance, the files are being written to a CMS disk. The first SMSG command executes successfully, but the second and third get the HCPMFS057I message. >From what I am seeing in other responses on the LISTSERV, it looks like a VMCF AUTHORIZE issue.
