Re: VTAM question (***)
I don't mean to detract from Debbie's problem, but in case there is merit... Q: Does the effect you are seeing apply only when using the ISPF Productivity Toll (IPT)? A: No. No prior to OA20772 the problem could be duplicated with and without IPT. Q: APAR OA20772 applies only to users of IPT? A: Yes.

Q: Perhaps you have better describe the effect you are experiencing in more detail.

Re: HCD EDT's Generics
I don't believe generics are that flexible. As already mentioned I believe you want to use esoterics. For example, I use two esoterics to differentiate between my Sun StorageTek 9840 A and B drives which are all part of my 3590-1 generic device group.

Re: Dynamically Activate additional CUs on Shark
Except for older CF stuff like TYPE=CFR, adding/deleting partitions and devices not defined with the dynamic feature I don't recall having to perform many PORs... Paths to the control unit should be unique. See CUADD, etc. What do your CNTLUNIT and IODEVICE statements look like? What is the total disk capacity (ADDRESSes) you desire? Regards, Kevin -Original Message- From: IBM Mainframe Discussion List [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Tom Sipusic Sent: Thursday, January 04, 2007 9:55 AM To: IBM-MAIN@BAMA.UA.EDU Subject: Dynamically Activate additional CUs on Shark Until now my Shark has been defined as two control units attached to four channels. After adding additional disk capacity it will appear to be four control units on those four channels. I would like to dynamically activate the two new control units and associated I/O devices. When I tried to do this, it failed to activate. It seemed that the channels had to be offline, but the existing Shark DASD has to be online; so we took an outage and did a POR. Was the POR unavoidable? I ask because now I have to change the definitions of the new CUs, giving them different LCUs, and I fear that we'll have to do another POR unless one of you can show me how I can do a dynamic activation here.
