Re: Tape Unit Documentation
Thanks, Alan. We finally got the other unnamed vendor to realize that streaming unsolicited interrupts is not a good thing to do regardless of whether they need the CCW. In this case, the CCW was the RUN done by CP when detaching a pseudo tape unit that tells CP there is a tape mounted.

more ftpserve stuff
I have set up a bfs and am trying to ftp to it from a linux guest in an IFL. I get the following message from Linux 450 Directory if temporarily unavailable, Access failure, RC=24 And from the FTPSERVE console I get: 14:38:29 DMSACR2133E VMSYSY:LNXUDB. is a byte file system.

Making Devices Available
We have some DASD devices that were, until a few minutes ago, in the Devices_NotAccepted list. I have made some of them accepted, both in the SYSTEM CONFIG and by command. Now, I am confronted with a DEFINE DEVICE command that, from the HELP files is as clear as murky water to me (the problem may well be between my ears). Is it as simple as DEFINE DEVICE F6EF-F6F7 UNITADD EF CUNUMBER DASD ( to be filled in when someone supplies the value from the IOCP - I do not have ready access)? Assuming that I get them defined, is all that is left varying them online? They will initially be attached to the user who is going to prepare them for use, so there will be no ATTACH to SYSTEM. Regards, Richard Schuh
Re: Making Devices Available
Richard, It should not be that complicated. Issue the following to see if it applies to your system - HELP CPSET DEVICES - and check if you have the proper features statement(s) set. You should be able to issue - SET ACCEPTED rdev-rdev. HITACHI DATA SYSTEMS Raymond E.

SHARE: Call for session chairs for San Jose
With SHARE in San Jose about 5 weeks away, it's time to start collecting chairs for sessions. If you choose to become a session chair, your job is simple but vital. You get to introduce the speaker of the session, mitigate wayward discussions, count attendees, keep time for the speaker and at the end of the session collect the very important session evaluation slips. Your reward as a session chair will be the satisfaction of helping out at SHARE and the admiration of your fellow attendees. Following is the list of sessions for the Linux and VM program by session number (please watch the wrap). Feel free to respond to me with the session number that you wish to chair. Responses will be accepted on a first come, first chaired basis.

To allow this capability, the fol lowing statement must be included in the CP directory: POSIXINFO UID 0 GID 0 See z/VM: OpenExtensions User's Guide and z/VM: CP Planning and Administr ation for more information about configuring the FTP server in this manner.
