Nah, that is still supported so if you do have problems, IBM will fix. z stuff is very forward compatible, not like some other stuff :)
Marcy From: The IBM z/VM Operating System [mailto:IBMVM@LISTSERV.UARK.EDU] On Behalf Of Victor Ochoa Avila Sent: Thursday, June 02, 2011 6:50 PM To: IBMVM@LISTSERV.UARK.EDU Subject: Re: [IBMVM] PROBLEMS WITH DEDICATE DASD IN z/VM 6.1 I'm migrating from version of z/VM 5.3 to z/VM 6.1 and I have virtual machines on dedicated disks, In the process of migrating a person of a foreign company mentioned that there are problems with dasd's dedicates in z/VM 6.1 This assertion does not convince me and so my question. Thanks for your help Mike. Victor Hugo Ochoa Avila 2011/6/2 Mike Walter <mike.wal...@aonhewitt.com<mailto:mike.wal...@aonhewitt.com>> z/VM is pretty much always upward compatible, so dedicated DASD should work the same. Can you explain what you are attempting to do, and what happens when you try which makes you ask? Mike Walter Aon Corp.
