This is different to the original process, and requires maintaining the IODF on z/VM each time, that may be acceptable to Marcy. In a shared (z/OS and z/VM) CEC there is no need to have the IODF exist on both partitions, and z/VM will dynamically sense the changes initiated from z/OS.

From: The IBM z/VM Operating System [mailto:ib...@listserv.uark.edu] On Behalf Of George Henke/NYLIC Sent: Thursday, November 04, 2010 12:39 PM To: IBMVM@LISTSERV.UARK.EDU Subject: Re: Dynamic IO Gens on boxes without z/OS? Yes, really nice. I like CBDSACT in Step 4 below. It is functionally equivalent to the z/OS command. 1. Use the HCD ISPF dialog to create a new work IODF based on your current production IODF as described in the z/OS HCD User's Guide. Continue to use the HCD dialog to apply your configuration changes to the work IODF. 2. Build the production IODF under z/OS HCD: From the Primary Task Selection Panel, select 2. Activate or process configuration data, then select 1. Build production I/O definition file. 3. Transfer the production IODF to z/VM. To receive it on z/VM, use the CMS RECEIVE command or the CBDSIMP REXX utility. 4. Activate the new configuration using the CBDSACT REXX utility with the TEST option first and verify these are the changes you want. Then issue the CBDSACT REXX utility without the TEST option to perform the dynamic I/O changes. 5. Update either the SYSTEM CONFIG file and the PARM disk or both. Logon to the user ID MAINT and copy the PRODIODF file to the PARM disk (CF1) and update the SYSTEM CONFIG file if you have the IODF file specified. Keep the old PRODIODF file on the disk as well. Thus, if the system is IPLed, it will pick up the latest production IODF. 6. Generate an IOCDS from the production IODF using the REXX utility CBDSIOCP. This will write out the IOCDS for next IML. 28 How Marcy Cortes <marcy.d.cor...@wellsfargo.com> Sent by: The IBM z/VM Operating System <IBMVM@LISTSERV.UARK.EDU> 11/04/2010 03:33 PM Please respond to The IBM z/VM Operating System <IBMVM@LISTSERV.UARK.EDU> To IBMVM@LISTSERV.UARK.EDU cc Subject Re: Dynamic IO Gens on boxes without z/OS? Ok, we found this that describes what we can do. http://www.vm.ibm.com/related/hcm/vmhcdmig.pdf It looks like the CBDSACT utility will generate the dynamic activation stuff for us.
