I thought a “START” disk command would do just that, reread the allocation – No? Just start a drain volume?
Thank you, Scott From: The IBM z/VM Operating System [mailto:ib...@listserv.uark.edu] On Behalf Of Scott Rohling Sent: Tuesday, September 15, 2009 4:50 PM To: IBMVM@LISTSERV.UARK.EDU Subject: Re: Adding TDISK Unfortunately - I don't believe you can get zVM to reread the allocation table unless you detach/attach.. which you obviously can't do with your SYSRES.. so you'd have to re-IPL to get VM to see it...
