Hi guys, We have a machine with two LPARs; one z/OS and one z/VM. The hardware config is done via z/OS and z/VM picks up devices automatically via sensing. We've recently added a number of new DASD devices at 8000-8FFF for the z/OS side.
Unfortunately, z/VM uses an EDEVICE at 8000 to access some FCP disks. Now the EDEVICE can't be created as z/VM is sensing the DASD at 8000 and creating an RDEV for it. I can manually delete this and then create the EDEVICE but I really would like to do this automatically by having the EDEVICE statements in SYSTEM CONFIG. I've tried changing the DEVICES statement to not sense the 8000 device and not bring it online at IPL but none of this seems to work. NOTACCEPTED doesn't build an RDEV but then z/VM won't let me create an EDEVICE either!! Anyone know how I can stop z/VM creating an RDEV at 8000 so I can use it as an EDEVICE?
