Since you are on z/VM 4.4.0, I would guess that you have been running it for a while. So my first question would be: What changed two weeks ago?
Have you added/removed Paging or Spool space? When was the last time tha t you IPLed? Have you installed/upgraded/removed any VM products? Created/saved/purged any DCSSes or NSSes?
