David, I don't have access to a Z10, so it is only speculation. Something to check: Are the CF Processors dedicated to CF LPAR? The VM LPAR have access to at least one CF processor? Is VM LPAR running in Mode VM? Follow this line... ______________________________________________ Clovis

I saw Alan's response, but I'm unsure how to proceed. I know they are running CFs in LPARs on the z10, so I don't think it's a "licensing" issue... Is it just a matter of exposing the CF processors to the zVM LPAR? Is this a requirement for zVM 5.3? No, the CF inside of zVM on this z10 has never been tried before. I want to get it working so I can test my DB2 version 10 SYSPLEX there, because DB2 won't run on my z800 here in Chicago. My messages are cryptic at best. I particularly like the one I got back from trying to SEND the CF machine as message while it was "supposedly" loading. 09:40:56 XAUTOLOG CFCC4 09:40:56 COMMAND ACCEPTED 09:40:56 AUTO LOGON *** CFCC4 USERS = 16 BY OPERATOR CFCC4 : HCPMFT2816I LOADING MESSAGE PROCESSOR CFCC4 FROM THE PROCESSOR CONTROL LER. 09:43:32 SEND CFCC4 HELP CFCC4 : HCPPCX6531E THE OPERATING SYSTEM WILL NOT ACCEPT COMMANDS FROM THE SERVICE PROCESSOR.
