Sergio,

Our mainframe network guy suggests that some messages on the z/OS log 
before what you included might have indicated the beginning of the 
problem.  Without knowing that your ZOS17 guest only had 500M, he 
suggested that it might be running short on storage, and that JES was 
already complaining about storage.

Try changing
this: USER ZOS17 ZOS17 500M 1000M ABCDEFG 
to:    USER ZOS17 ZOS17 2G 4G G 
z/OS is very storage hungry, stealing a "page" (forgive the pun) from the 
old potato chip commercials is the U.S.: "Eat all you want, we'll make 
more".  Once the problem is solved you can always go back to adjust the 
ZOS17 guest virtual storage size if the problem is eliminated.

By the way, you should change the ZOS17 userid password (the second 
"ZOS17") to something else - hackers ALWAYS try the userid as the password 
one of their first guesses.  Besides, you already showed the password to 
the whole world in your post).

We also noted that you only have CTCs for z/OS to use for networking.  Was 
that intentional, or are you maybe missing one or more (usually three) 
DEDICATE statements for OSA's?
