Bacula + tape size
Hello, We use Bacula and VTS to make backups I wonder if we can configure in z/V M tape volumes greater than 830 MB. It look like that what I can define max 830 MB. Best Regards Tomasz
Re: Bacula + tape size
When you say VTS, I assume you mean an IBM 3494 ... no, you can't. The virtual volumes are emulated to the extent that includes simulating the capacity of a physical 3490E cartridge.

Eliminating DASD at IPL
We are trying to eliminate all the z/OS DASD we are seeing on our z/VM system... mostly to cut down on our huge MONITOR DATA and avoid seeing them in PERFKIT. Our SYSTEM CONFIG looks like so: Devices , Online_at_IPL -00FF, 0120-07FF, 0900-09FF, 0B00-26FF, 5C00-5CFF, 6000-62FF, 6400-64FF, 6A00-6AFF, 6C00-6CFF, Sensed - However - we still see the z/OS DASD -- for example: q 4000-400f DASD 4000 SXX06O , DASD 4001 PPX2K0 , DASD 4002 PPX2K1 , DASD 4003 PPX2K2 DASD 4004 OXX312 , DASD 4005 ORX313 , DASD 4006 PGX300 , DASD 4007 PPX283 DASD 4008 CXX105 , DASD 4009 PGX500 , DASD 400A WKX007 , DASD 400B CMX107 DASD 400C PXX100 , DASD 400D PPX284 , DASD 400E PPX285 , DASD 400F PPX286 Ready; T=0.01/0.01 07:15:26 Which is not in the range we specified to be online at IPL. Do we have to use Offline_at_IPL instead? Or Not_Accepted? I guess I'm not understanding how this works because my assumption was that specifying Online_At_IPL would limit what's put online to just those addresses... Thanks for any assistance...

Re: Eliminating DASD at IPL
Scott et al, We also use not accepted for the MVS stuff because we definitely NEVER want it online, and as I recall, certain interrupts, or channel offline/online would cause VM to go out and sense it again and bring it online. (But maybe we didn't have the offline at the time). We have: Devices, Notaccepted 1000-8FFF, Offline_at_IPL -, Online_at_IPL 0001-0005, /* Consoles */ Online_at_IPL A00-A0F,/* OSA */ Online_at_IPL F00-FFF,/* Hipersockets */ Online_at_IPL 9000-95FF, /* Dasd */ Online_at_IPL A000-A5FF,/* Dasd */ etc. Mary Anne On Fri, Sep 12, 2008 at 9:35 AM, Harris, Nick J.

Re: Bacula + tape size
We use Bacula and VTS to make backups I wonder if we can configure in z/V M tape volumes greater than 830 MB. It look like that what I can define max 830 MB. There's no limit in z/VM; the tape mount code we wrote writes until physical EOV; you may need to define a new media type in Bacula to represent the larger media.
Re: Bacula + tape size
When you say VTS, I assume you mean an IBM 3494 ... no, you can't. The virtual volumes are emulated to the extent that includes simulating the capacity of a physical 3490E cartridge. Ah, right. VTS, duh. Suggestion: define a disk pool with large volumes (5-10G) and do migration from disk to tape. Much more efficient. If you have FCP disk available, this is a great use for lower cost FCP disk pools.

Re: OSA issue (VSWITCH) again
The output from Q VSWITCH shows that your OS/390 TCPIP stack has not yet registered it's IP address to the VSWITCH. You should be looking for error messages in your OS/390 TCPIP and VTAM logs. You may also need to make sure that the appropriate VTAM nodes have been activated sucessfully and that the associated TCPIP devices names have been started.

Terry, From the SAL screen, there is a PF key to list the files on the CP parm disk. It may help you in determining what went wrong. If you made a backup of the SYSTEM CONFIG on the parm disk, then you can use the FN= and FT= options in the IPL parameters area to point to another SYSTEM CONFIG.

Re: WAIT STATE
Terry, I think it is actually called SAPL ( Standalone Program Loader ). There are instructions in the CP Planning and Administration book. If I remember correctly, when you do the load function the HMC, there is a field for the console address. Insert the four digit address of your console and proceed with the load. The SAPL screen will eventually appear on the console. If you want to proceed with the IPL using the console address, then specify CONS=, where the the console address, in the IPL parameters field as was mentioned in a previous posting. There is a PF key to proceed with the IPL/load. Or do as I said in my previous posting. From: The IBM z/VM Operating System [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Martin, Terry R.

Re: WAIT STATE
You can force a console address. In LOAD screem, type into LOADPARM field a known 3270 (local nsna) address. 1010 is a wait state code indicating a usable console could not be found. IPL VM with that address in LOADPARM. For example if your IPL volume is on address 0100 and your 3270 is at address 0200: IPL 0100 LOADPARM 0200 I never tried to put into LOADPARM sysg as console address, but this works if you get SAIPL with cons=sysg to get VM operator console into HMC Software Messages tab.

Re: WAIT STATE
Hello Terry, Have a look at the CP message HCP1010W and you will find that you do not have a console. Either the correct console has not been definied in the SYSTEM CONFIG or it is not available. It happens to me quite often when I IPL an LPAR in a guest VM and forget that I need to set the console to my virtual 0009. Most of my systems have also 0009 into the system config but some don't (sigh). So either include your console in the system config or specify CONS= in the SALIPL screen. BTW. Often a disabled wait will show the CP code. So if you get a 1010 or a 961 (the latter means SYSTEM shutdown complete) then try HELP HCPxxxE, -W or -I on a different VM to see if that code is explained. Or take the CP Messages and Codes to look for the number in the CP messages chapter. Regards, Berry. Martin, Terry R.

Re: Eliminating DASD at IPL
Thanks Nick and Mary Anne! We are going to use the NOTACCEPTED for the ranges we don't want to show up. I'm still a bit confused because it seems like only the 'negative' specification works -- but hey, I'm used to being confused :-) Thanks again - Scott
Re: WAIT STATE
1010 is cannot find console - Did you bring up the Integrated 3270 console on the HMC and specify SYSG as the (load) parm? I changed the system config adding page packs and such and might have had a finger check! Did you run CPSYNTAX before the SHUTDOWN RIEPL? I alwasy acc 193 g (to pick up the CPSYNTAX command), then cpsyntax system config f (or whichever disk CF1 is accessed as) before ReIPLing.

Re: WAIT STATE
This is something that I commented on (read "complained about") a couple of months ago. I *ALWAYS* keep the previous nuc or SYSTEM CONFIG file. I promote it from CF1 to CF2 with the same or default name. I leave the previous file on CF1 renamed, at least, the FN. A finger check does not have to spell disaster. IBM's PUT2PROD, as far as CP nuc handling is a disaster waiting to happen, or at the very least it is not very intuitive. If I get a call from an operator in the middle of the night that the nuc won't load, it's easier to tell him/her to switch to CF2 and ipl using the default CPLOAD MODULE and SYSTEM CONFIG.

While you can reduce the liklihood of them being accidentally used, I suggest you remove them from the I/O configuration. A secure I/O configuration is the second step in securing a multipartition system. If your auditors knew about the shared I/O, I imagine that they would object. The reason is that owning system's audit trail will not show that another partition accessed its data. If asked, Who had access to the sensititve data on the date in question? the answer from the scapegoat-seeking PHB will not be the hoped-for I do not recollect at this time, Senator. Instead, the system programmers of each partition with shared I/O access will be on the short list. For those who are interested, the first step is to secure the HMC, and the third step is to create a separate partition for managing dynamic I/O. Do not allow a production system to do this - if it is, in some unforseeable way, hacked, it then has the keys to the data kingdom. In larger shops, separate the duties of system programmming from hardware configuration management. Then it requires collusion between two people to get unaudited access to data (a conspiracy). Protect your company's data and yourself in one go. Plausible deniability, man; it's vastly underrated these days. Alan Altmark z/VM Development IBM Endicott
