Re: Adding a second CSS
Hi Greg, Yep, that was it - and I think I understand the syntax a little better now that we have a working set of parms (I was also confusing the values of CSS and RCSS). So now I have all of the CHPIDS online to my TEST LPAR: q chpids 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 A B C D E F 0x + + + + + + + + . . . . . . . . 1x . . . . + + + + . . . . . . . . 2x + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + 3x . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 4x . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 5x . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 6x . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 7x . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 8x + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + 9x + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + Ax . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .

I modified the control units, eg: cp modify cu 4000 css 1 add_css_access chpid 80 84 88 8C 81 85 89 8D cuadd 0 And added all of the IODevs, eg: cp def dev 4000-4080 unitadd 00 cu 4000 css 1 dasd par TEST All of the DASD and control units came online normally. :) Now, my last (hopefully!) question is this. Are these modifications stored in the HSA, and/or will they survive an IPL of z/VM in the TEST LPAR? I realize we'll still need a POR to make these permanent (absent using HCD, which we haven't deployed yet) - but for the time being are these changes permanent unless/until a POR is performed, or will they disappear when the z/VM TEST LPAR is IPL'd?

Maybe I got my 1's and 0's backwards... would you paste, from the IOCP the RESOURCE PARTITION statement, CHPID 80 and the CNTLUNIT statement for CU 4000? My read earlier was that CHPID 80 is currently defined in CSS 1 and I assumed TEST was in CSS 0. The modify adds the lpnames to the ACC/INIT lists. We've 'spanned' channels channels here, where we first had to DEFine in one CSS and then MODify for the second.

PS: Do you know if the ACCESS_LIST needs to be the COMPLETE list of systems to have access to the CSS, or only the system you are adding via the CP MODIFY command? In other words, will the system(s) specified in ACCESS_LIST be added to the existing access list, or REPLACE the existing access list? -Mike -Original Message- From: The IBM z/VM Operating System [mailto:ib...@listserv.uark.edu] On Behalf Of Gregg Sent: Thursday, March 18, 2010 5:50 AM To:
Re: Adding a second CSS
Grrreat! They are stored in HSA and will survive an IPL but without a couple more steps not a POR. To make them permanent, 1.) update the IOCP 2.) write out a slot, one not in use or the next slot, according to local traditions eg 'IOCP iocpFN ( ICP DYN WRTAn' -- were An is the slot you want to write the IOCP into **Note** ICP is machine specific/ z9 2094 and the old LPAR parameter isn't needed on z9's 3) then point the SE at the slot to be active 'CP SET IOCDS_ACTIVE An' You don't need to do a POR but should one happen, and if the HMC is set to use the active slot or you update the 'reset profile', you'll be covered again, all as local traditions, change/risk mgt/etc dictate.

Re: Adding a second CSS
Hi Greg, Many thanks for all the info! Yep, dynamic I/O is pretty cool - no more waiting for a POR (something which was never a problem for us in the past as we ran in BASIC mode on our own box, but now we are on an LPAR sharing a big z10 with some other groups, so we need to get concurrence from EVERYBODY to get downtime).

Re: FCONAPPC...
Or you can pass the FCONAPPC subcommand with the PERFKIT invocation as PERFKIT FCONA to connect to the APPC/VM default resource FCXRES00 (*not* FCXRESOO). (Multiple subcommands can be appended as arguments with the PERFKIT command, separated by semicolons, to be executed FIFO once initialization has completed).

Re: VM/ESA TCP/IP and VSWITCH
Hi Billy I'm no expert at this, but you've defined your device as a LCS device, not a QDIO. A VSwitch has to be QDIO, so you need to change your device (and link) statements accordingly. For instance, I have DEVICE OSAQDIO OSD 0440 PORTNAME OSA1 PRIROUTER AUTORESTART LINKETH0QDIOETHERNET OSAQDIO1 ane the linkname in the home statement points to ETH0 device 440 is a 'port' into the VSwitch. In your case, your TCPIP is in a 2nd level system, but it still has to be in QDIO mode. If your level of TCP/IP does not support QDIO, you will find out as soon as it tries to process the DEVICE staatement.

Re: VM/ESA TCP/IP and VSWITCH
The doc for TCP/IP for VM/ESA FL320 (which ran on VM/ESA 2.4) is still on line. There is no indication of QDIO device support in the Planning manual. Unless is was added after GA.
