VMRM?

2007-11-19 Thread Hooker, Don
How many out there have implemented the VM Resource Manager?  Happy with
it? Any tips or gotchas?  I am also looking at Explore/VM's Resource
Control facility, but that looks like it requires manual intervention to
put things back after it degrades (i.e.: adjusts relative share down
for resource hog) a guest.


VMFREM to backout an RSU?

2007-11-14 Thread Hooker, Don
I'm applying an RSU to our z/VM 5.2 system.  I've already run the
SERVICE exec against the envelope files and plan to do the PUT2PROD just
before a scheduled weekend IPL.

I've been asked how to back it out if there are problems.  Rather than
volume and/or minidisk restores, can I just use VMFREM to back out the
service?

Would I use: VMFREM PPF SERVP2P compname PTF UM97520 (which was the
PTF number for the RSU) against every affected component?  (The
components listed in the SERVICE $PRODS file).  Then IPL?  

Would that work?  Is there another/better way?

Thanks in advance.
Don

RSCS TCPNJE links

2007-10-30 Thread Hooker, Don
I'm trying to get RSCS TCPNJE links established between a 1st level z/VM
5.2 RSCS node and a 2nd level z/VM 5.2 RSCS node.

I know the TCPIP communication between the systems is working, as I can
FTP between the systems.  However, when I start the RSCS TCPNJE links I
get:

On 1st level:

DMTCMY700I Activating link ZVM53 TCPNJE line= class=*

And on 2nd level:

DMTTNE190I Socket error on link ZVMRSCS (Connection refused) -- retrying

DMTTNE190I Socket error on link ZVMRSCS (Connection timed out) --
retrying   

This is the 1st time I've tried setting up TCPNJE links.  What am I
doing wrong?  This is how I defined the links:

On 2nd level:

LINKDEFINE ZVMRSCS TYPE TCPNJE AST NODE DIS3081 
PARM ZVMRSCS  ITO=0 HOST=172.30.8.11 LCLPORT=731 RMTPORT=731

(It ignores the NODE specification BTW).  I tried it without the LCLPORT
and RMTPORT at first and had problems, so thought it might be because
there was no PORT definition in TCPIP PROFILE for port 175 and figured I
might be able to borrow one of the port definitions for FTP.

On 1st level, I defined it by command:

sm rscs DEFINE ZVM53 TYPE TCPNJE AST PARM ITO=0 HOST=172.30.8.69
LCLPORT=731 RMTPORT=731 

So, what am I missing?

TIA   


RSCS TCPNJE links

2007-10-30 Thread Hooker, Don
Thanks for the replies.  I was finally able to get it to work overriding
the port via the LCLPORT=731 and RMTPORT=731 on the link parms.  Richard
Schuh hit the nail on the head with ITO=0.  I had it backward in my head
and thought that meant never time out.

It was a learning experience though.  It seems obvious now and makes
perfect sense, but I was trying to get it working with the link names
not matching the other end node's LOCAL node name.  (Duh!).

Ghost users on z/VM 5.2

2007-09-11 Thread Hooker, Don
Thanks for the replies.  And thanks for the TRACK commands, Mike.  I use
TRACK all the time but mostly for viewing consoles.  TRACK shows an
active I/O to a VSWITCH connected to an OSAX.  I am reluctant to do a
HALT on that device as I do not know if it would impact other users of
the VSWITCH.

And Alan, I guess I'm glad to know we're not alone.  I will look up
VM64184.
It is for z/VM 5.2?

I saw an item on IBMLINK for a hung z/OS user and VSWITCH, but it was
for z/VM 4.4.

I will take a SNAPDUMP before our next IPL and open a PMR.


Ghost users on z/VM 5.2

2007-09-10 Thread Hooker, Don
It's been *so* long since I've seen users stuck in Logoff/Force
Pending state for any length of time that I thought it had been fixed.
We have a z/VSE guest stuck in that state since Sunday.

Anybody else seen this on current levels of z/VM?

Many years ago when it was a more frequent problem, I wrote an assembler
program that massaged some bits in the (then) VMBLOCK to free it up.  I
did not take some things into account at the time, so sometimes it
worked, but then othertimes... expletive deleted

Does anybody have any current tricks to free up a user in this state
(short of VM IPL).

TCPIP4VSE and z/VM OSAX QDIO VSWITCHHW

2006-05-31 Thread Hooker, Don - OIT
We are still having problems getting the above communications working.
On our VSE 2.62 systems that is.  IBM recommended some PTFs:

UD52153 was already applied.  I was getting:

IPN631I Control has been passed to the TCP/IP engine  
0016: IPL605E Unable to Initialize IJBOSA, return code: 1

IBM also recommended UD52628 but I found UD52332 first which seemed to
describe our symptoms so
I applied that first (despite it being superceded by UD52628) but when I
continued to have problems,
I went ahead and applied UD52628.  Then I was getting:

IPL605E Unable to Initialize IJBOSA, return code: 57472  
IPL609E Unable to initialize OSA Express, Link: VM_TCPIP 

I installed z/VSE 3.11 and tested it there and it worked fine.

The trouble is we need to get it working on our VSE 2.62 systems.
Does anybody on VSE 2.6 have it working?

I tried copying the IJBOSA phase from the z/VSE 3.11 system to a VSE

We are trying to get it to get to the network via a virtual

However, I cant get it to initialize. 



I did upgrade TCPIP to 1.5E on our VSE/ESA 2.62 systems.

In the VSE IPL proc:

it w/o the ,EML  same results)



In VM SYSTEM CONFIG:



Define vswitch dtcvsw1 rdev b000 c000 connect controller

(Should the IP address used here be the same as VSEs
IP address?).

VSE lock file question

2006-04-26 Thread Hooker, Don - OIT








We are in the process of migrating to a new CPU. The
applications people want to run their test

VSE on the new box concurrently with all the other systems
still running on the old box.



After some discussion it was decided that we would just put
the VSE lock file on a physical

DASD volume. (Currently it is on a VM VDISK).



However, I remembered a problem I had with a new external
lock file in a multiple CPU and 

VSE environment 24 years ago. The problem was the result of
one of the CPUs having more

than one path to the DASD where the lock file resided.



Is this still a problem? Each CPU here has at least 4 paths
to all the DASD.



Thanks in advance,

Don
