Re: Initially setting up CSE
Hi Rob,We don't run our CSE plex with shared sysres volumes, so we haven't needed to format the xlink area on them. Instead, we chose to add SYSAFFIN statements to all the VM system IDs so that they get linked to the correct minis on the correct volumes. We went this route so that we would be able to have different VM systems at different service levels. We dont apply service to all our VM systems simultaneously so this is the only way to go for us. We only use XLINK to protect everything else, ie: anything that did not ship from Endicott in the install media. -- Jay Brenneman

Ah! okay ... Then it may be a font problem. I mean: They're wanting the same screen geometry, is that correct? If so, then when you maximize, X3270 would need different fonts to work with.

Re: Dynamic i/o
There is one key statement in the Features section of SYSTEM CONFIG. It could be either in the Enable or Disable section and that will determine how your system behaves. NEW_DEVices_Initialized_When_added tell CP whether to accept the MCH interrupts when the configuration gets changed. You can further restrict some of the actions using the ACCEPTED/NOTACCEPTED and SENSED/NOTSENSED pairs. I think the default setup if you don't modify SYSTEM CONFIG is that everything is anabled and CP will accept the new devices and try to use Sense to identify them and build the RDEV blocks.

Re: OT: x3270 full screen
They don't desire a odd model configuration, just a way to blow up a mod 2 screen, then put it back. That's a function of the window manager, not the application (although the application will need to respond to the appWinResize X event). Which window manager are they running? In general, you'll need to map an X keysim to the window manager maximize event. The mouse and/or keyboard focus will indicate the correct window, and it should be a toggle in the window manager (one event does maximize, and the same event on a maximized window should revert to it's previous state). The real question will be whether x3270 is coded to respond to the resize event. I don't think it is (and looking at the source seems to bear that out), so you may not be able to do this. You could probably start the x3270 session with a window geometry equal to the full screen, and then minimize it to an icon -- would that be good enough? In that case, see above advice wrt window manager maximize events. David Boyes Sine Nomine Associates

Re: OT: x3270 full screen
The intent is to start x3270 with four sessions on each corner (much like a 3290). The operator would then want to maximize a screen on occasion to see it easier. When I try to maximize the window, I very briefly get a gray block on the screen where the image might be, then it just drops back to it's original size with the 3270 session intact.

Re: Dynamic i/o
We have a similar situation in which our z/OS crew prepares all the IODEFs. VM does not own the token. AFAICR, I was present when the z/OS crew made a change to write the IODEF we were using and without my doing anything, the devices were immediately added to VM. CP and SYSTEM CONFIG are good magic. :-) Mike Walter Hewitt Associates The opinions expressed herein are mine alone, not my employer's.

Our SYSTEM CONFIG does not have anything in it that Rick mentioned and it has been 2-3 years now since the devices were added. I suspect that on the VM side, after the devices were dynamically added on the z/OS lpar, we or I did a DEF CU and a DEF DEVICE on the VM lpars.

Re: OT: x3270 full screen
That is exactly what I did. Tony Thigpen -Original Message - From: Rich Smrcina Sent: 09/19/2006 02:43 PM Thanks for the tip, Rick. Richard Troth wrote: Rich ... Unless you have security or support policies prohibitting it, I STRONGLY urge you to build it from source. This is a fairly straightforward app to build.

Re: Monitoring use of a saved segment
On 19/09/2006 at 20:39 Rob van der Heij [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Your example seems just what I need (although I found that I needed DIAG064). I would be surprised. I seem to recall it does not get the argument of the diag64 into the SMF record, which was one of the reasons we had to do it differently. The other was that we did not want RACF to waste time on each diag64 (we had a lot of those because of some incompatible developer). Rob We turned it on briefly this afternoon and it does references to segments and show the segment name in the SMF record. The problem seems to be that there does not seem to be a way to limit this to a specific segment (hence briefly because of the large number of extra SMF records cut). The other problem, (why I am at work at this time of night), is that with my limited understanding of the finer points of RACF I activated the wrong VMXEVENT list and started controlling events not required (so a lot of things fell over). Resolved that now and will know in future. Colin Allinson Amadeus Data Processing.
Hipersockets - problem with some guests
Strangely some guests show individual address of hipersockets triad while configuring network via YaST in SLES9. For example, see below: ?? Network cards configuration ?

Re: Hipersockets - problem with some guests
Title: RE: [IBMVM] Hipersockets - problem with some guests sigh your yast picture was, well, questionable. I suppose I have seen something similar I always choose the low order device (0.0.ec00) and ignore the others. Attached versus dedicate: should not be a difference as longas the devices are available to the virtual linux server.
