It seems (though I did not set this up so I am not certain) that the VM users are only not connected for a moment, when things get "reset" (I believe monitoring is stopped every hour to send off data, and then restarted and the user then becomes re-connected).
The following display (Q MONITOR) shows the following whenever I have issued the command (note the connected user LINMON): q monitor MONITOR EVENT ACTIVE BLOCK 4 PARTITION 1024 MONITOR DCSS NAME - MONDCSS CONFIGURATION SIZE 68 LIMIT 1 MINUTES CONFIGURATION AREA IS FREE USERS CONNECTED TO *MONITOR - LINMON MONITOR DOMAIN ENABLED PROCESSOR DOMAIN ENABLED STORAGE DOMAIN DISABLED SCHEDULER DOMAIN DISABLED SEEKS DOMAIN DISABLED USER DOMAIN ENABLED THE FOLLOWING USERIDS ARE ENABLED: UNIPRD2 UNIPROD UNITEST I/O DOMAIN ENABLED THE FOLLOWING DEVICES ARE ENABLED: 1317-13AF 1417-147A NETWORK DOMAIN DISABLED APPLDATA DOMAIN DISABLED MONITOR SAMPLE ACTIVE INTERVAL 5 MINUTES RATE 5.00 SECONDS MONITOR DCSS NAME - MONDCSS CONFIGURATION SIZE 1536 LIMIT 1 MINUTES CONFIGURATION AREA IS FREE USERS CONNECTED TO *MONITOR - LINMON MONITOR DOMAIN ENABLED SYSTEM DOMAIN ENABLED PROCESSOR DOMAIN ENABLED STORAGE DOMAIN DISABLED USER DOMAIN ENABLED THE FOLLOWING USERIDS ARE ENABLED: UNIPRD2 UNIPROD UNITEST I/O DOMAIN ENABLED THE FOLLOWING DEVICES ARE ENABLED: 1317-13AF 1417-147A NETWORK DOMAIN DISABLED APPLDATA DOMAIN DISABLED Ready; T=0.01/0.01 11:45:06 -----Original Message----- From: The IBM z/VM Operating System [mailto:ib...@listserv.uark.edu] On Behalf Of Berry van Sleeuwen Sent: Monday, November 22, 2010 11:44 AM To: IBMVM@LISTSERV.UARK.EDU Subject: Re: Suppressing messages But if no one is connected to the monitor, why do you keep monitor running? Do you have PROP running in the zVM OPERATOR? If so, add a rule in the PROP RTABLE to suppress HCPMXE6224I.
