Re: HMC Integrated console and JAVA
An update, and more weirdness. Alan Altmark posted an update to create a .java.policy that didn't appear to work for me. I had our CE upgrade the HMC microcode to Driver 22 and I still couldn't access the integrated console or operating system messages. One of our sysprogs who works remotely said everything was working for him with the .java.policy before and after the upgrade. He had Java 1,.8_33 installed. I decided to work on it from home. Using VPN, Java 1.8_40 and Driver 22 worked as expected. Back in the office it still doesn't work. I turned on the JAVA console and the result is JREInfo: unknown osArch: amd64, considering 32bit --- Stops at this line when in the office Missing Application-Name manifest attribute for: https://xx.xx.xx.xx/applets/ddsapplet-2.jar--- this appears from home JREInfo: unknown osArch: amd64, considering 32bit --- a few more lines like this and then success. Fortunately it works remotely which is when I really need it to work.

Are you applying maintenance to your active system? It looks like you might have. Try compressing SYS1.LINKLIB using a batch on then do an LLA refresh.

Re: SMP/E GIM69217I
This happens to me all the time. After applying maintenance to SMP/E you've updated the SMPCPATH dataset which has now got out of synch with the rest of SMPE.

Re: NFS automount help requested
Got the answer from IBM.
With Automount, you can not have an automount controlled directory
under another automount controlled directory.
and
You can mount to /u/wsbinds and in /u/cics you
can put a symlink to /u/wsbinds. For example
ln -s /u/wsbinds /u/cics/wsbinds
That will let you reference the path /u/cics/wsbinds and be redirected
to /u/wsbinds automatically.

HCD Activate help
It's been years since I got my hardware and software tokens out of sync and now I've gone and done it again. *IOS505A DYNAMIC I/O CONFIGURATION CHANGES ARE NOT ALLOWED, THE HARDWARE AND SOFTWARE CONFIGURATION DEFINITIONS DO NOT MATCH The matching IODF has been destroyed so I can't do a software activate to get back in sync. Is a POR still the only way to straighten out this mess?

Re: Renaming an LPAR dynamically
Skip, I recall trying this once. When I converted the name to * it lost all the chpid/device info. I decided that the function was pretty useless (as far as renaming an lpar) is concerned.

We have an LPAR whose name needs to change. Everything else in the IODF is fine, just a name problem. Current hardware and software. I changed the name in HCD. When I tried to ACTIVATE the new IODF, it choked on the name mismatch. I gather that I can first rename to '*', then rename for real in two successive IODFs. If I do that, do I preserve all original chpid and device connections? I don't want to start over from scratch when only the name is wrong. . .

Create a CFRM policy with ALL your CFs defined, both existing and new. Change the PREFLIST to specify ALL the CFs. e.g. PREFLIST(NEW1,NEW2,OLD1,OLD2) Activate the policy. This the key step. Now no matter what combination of old and new CFs you come up on the structures will be allocated.

Re: CFRM Policy with new CPU
Yes, you will need new names for the CFs. We just upgraded our processors and we had CF1 and CF2, In the new processors I defined CF3 and CF4 so we are now running with CFs named CF3 and CF4 only. Note though. In the IOCDS I named the NEW CF lpars CF1 and CF2 s so that in the CFRM policy CF3 runs in lpar CF1 etc. I'm thinking at some point I'll change the CFRM policy back to CF1 and CF2 to match the LPAR names. Yes - you need to make this change on your running system before you IPL the new system.
