I was going to attempt to contest this, since my (V4.4) system has *many* MITIME values which I did not type in. At least not recently, and our last IPL was just a week ago. (Scheduled, of course :) ) But first I decided to have a peek at what is going on in our test V5.3 system. It runs in its own LPAR, and so far it is pretty much an IBM out-of-the-box system. I have definitely NOT done *any* MITIME settings in it, the thought never even crossed my mind! So, take look at this: Q MITIME MITIME ON 1480-14B5 00:40 MITIME ON 1400-146C 00:40 MITIME ON 12F1-12FF 00:40 MITIME ON 1200-1250 00:40 MITIME ON 1100-11FF 00:40 MITIME ON 0908-0909 12:30 MITIME ON 0900-0901 12:30 MITIME ON 0480-04B5 00:40 MITIME ON 0400-046D 00:40 MITIME ON 0200-0250 00:40 MITIME ON 0100-01FF 00:40 MITIME ON DASD 00:15 MITIME ON GRAF 01:10 MITIME ON TAPE 10:00 MITIME ON UR 01:00 MITIME ON SWITCH 05:00 MITIME ON MISC 12:00 Who/what in VM dreamed up all of those values!? They are all real DASD (except the 9xx addresses, which are 3590 tapes in a library). Did VM decide on its own to give me these settings? Or perhaps it 'asked' the devices what MITIME they like? It is a mystery to me, Shimon
