I'm working on an old z800 machine for backup Recovery, that is running in basic mode (no LPARs). And SET CONFIGMODE ON fails: set configmode on HCPCCO6816E Dynamic I/O changes are not allowed on this system Ready(06816); T=0.01/0.01 16:12:18
On the HMC, I turned on "allow dynamic I/O configuration changes" in the Activation profile, I performed a Power-on-Reset. But still, it doesn't work. The SYSTEM CONFIG file should be OK: during IPL, CP tells: 16:03:42 HCPZPQ6857I System is enabled for dynamic I/O changes When I write the IOCDS, I get an error about the token: IOCP L911QDIO ( WRTA0 DYN QUERY TOKEN command return code was: 6816 Processing will continue with default token.
