Frank, After runs Kris' instructions, to prevent this problem: Check the CONSOLEs defined in SYSTEM CONFIG. At first level VM, define the "CONSOLE xxx 3270" card into USER DIRECT for the second level machine, matching one of the address you saw in SYSTEM CONFIG. Remember: all in first level USER DIRECT, looks like "physical" to second level VM. Including console. Best regards, ______________________________________________ Clovis

Ramaekers <framaek...@ailife.com> I’m attempting to bring up our VM system under 2nd level at the DR site. The problem that I’m running into is: 08:58:10 HCPZCO6718I Using parm disk 1 on volume 610RES (device 06F8) 08:58:10 HCPZCO6718I Parm disk resides on cylinders 39 through 158. 08:58:10 Start ((Warm|Force|COLD|CLEAN) (DRain) (DIsable) (NODIRect) 08:58:10 (NOAUTOlog)) or (SHUTDOWN) H HCPSED6013A A CP read is pending. The HCPSED6013A seems to be the problem. At our site, I have two VMs that I can IPL under our z/VM 5.4. One will IPL just fine (i.e. no HCPSED6013A) the other doesn’t’ and displays this message. Both VMs are configured (DIRECT) the same. I’m at a loss as to why this happens with one and not the other. We had no problems during the last DR, but we’ve applied z/VM 5.4 maintenance since then (1003). Ideas? Frank M.
