Thanks everyone for the responses. I wasn't seeing the icon for Integrated 3270 CONSOLE under CPC recovery. Our IBM Service engineer found out that the HMC installed was an old version and he is looking at upgrading it to newer version. Also found out that we need to be at Z/VM 4.4 level in order to be able to use the Integrated Console in VM. We are at 4.2 but luckily we have a copy of Z/VM 44 lying around which is currently installed in test. We can move there and see what happens. It would be interesting.
I just want to say that it confirms what I already know, that this list is awesome. Thanks very much. -----Original Message----- From: The IBM z/VM Operating System [mailto:IBMVM@LISTSERV.UARK.EDU] On Behalf Of Alan Altmark Sent: Friday, 8 April 2011 5:53 AM To: IBMVM@LISTSERV.UARK.EDU Subject: Re: VM CONSOLE on the 9672 On Thursday, 04/07/2011 at 08:24 EDT, "Gentry, Stephen" <stephen.gen...@lafayettelife.com> wrote: > Are you talking about a 9672 which is at least 2 if not at least 3 generations > old? What would be the most current version of VM that box could run? z/VM Version 4 Release 4 was the last release to run on a 9672, but that's only interesting if (a) you have z/VM V4 laying around, and (2) you have the needed licenses. z/VM V3 and VM/ESA, even though no longer available or serviced, still require payment of monthly license fees as long as you use them. If the 9672 moves you up to a new (virtual) model group, then your MLC increases.
