We're trying to add additional storage to some of our zVM LPARs without
IPLing the system. According to the zVM CP Commands manual for zVM 6.1 t
he
Q STOR command should show STANDBY storage. And Standby storage is defin
ed
as.
Standby storage is a calculated value based on the amount of installed
storage that is not currently claimed by active logical partitions and th
e
reserved storage specified for the logical partition in which z/VM is
running.
We deactivated our LPAR and removed 5 GB from the configuration,
reactivated the LPAR and reIPLed. The Q STOR command still shows 0GB of
standby storage. We have additional storage installed on the box above t
he
5 GB we just freed up.
q stor
STORAGE = 2G CONFIGURED = 2G INC = 256M STANDBY = 0 RESERVED =
0
Ready; T=0.01/0.01 09:52:45
Anyone have any idea what we might be doing
wrong ?
