Some of us exploiting new things are having VM/SP moments :)

I just want a CP Query that tells me about the running system.  It's a *bad 
thing* when one thinks they have applied a PTF after scheduling an IPL and 
finding it not on later.  Bad things happen to good VM sys progs :(

Yes, but that's as it should. RSU is the basic level set of "service
level", and if you add the PSP bucket on top of it, then you are not
running service level X, but service level X++. Thus it's providing the
correct indication.

I guess I'm thinking that the number of PTFs between RSUs is small enough
now that you're more likely to see a RSU come out sooner than you would
apply COR between RSUs. Not like the VM/SP days...8-) I know a lot of
shops that never apply COR unless it's totally critical to keeping the
machine up -- they'd rather wait for the RSUs because of the amount of
testing required to get stuff into prod.

The reason I want it as part of SERVICE is that that way, it would work
for *all* SES maintained components in the same way. With some of the
non-IBM vendors starting to use SES maintenance, that would make
everybody's life easier. A CP command would be nice too, but I think it's
in addition to the extra function in SERVICE.

Also, SERVICE is what the newbies are trained to use, so that's kinda
where it has to go IMHO. Most of them don't even know that VMFSIM exists,
let alone the way to construct the insane number of arguments to get it to
report anything useful.

2011-04-11 Thread Bob Bates
A question on this though: 

If one gets the PSP buckets and put them on at the same time as the RSU, as one 
should, wouldn't it always show the ++?

I do like the idea of something that lists all the fixes easily, preferably by 
CP so logging on to MAINT isn't necessary (ok, I guess I could link the 
necessary disks, etc to do it from my id). But CP Q PTF ALL? Or CP Q PTF 
VM64123? Wouldn't that be nice. SERVICE STAT shows everything except if the 
current active nuc has the fix, this could bridge that gap.

Subject: Re: Sevice level

What I would like:

1) a flag for the output of Q CPLEVEL that indicates that additional service 
beyond the displayed level has been applied. Something like 8801++.

Applying the next RSU would reset the flag until the next PTF outside the RSU 
is applied.

2) a new option to SERVICE that does the VMFSIM magic to list all PTFS applied 
to a component. Example: 

SERVICE LIST CP

Resulting in something like:

RSU 8801
PTF c
PTF yyygyygyy
Etc

I think that would help non-SES wizards to understand without breaking  the 
older method.


What is the recently VM 5.4 service level?

2009-04-15 Thread sunny . hu
Thanks for your help. Finally I upgrade VM5.4 to service 901. 
It is my first time so a big step for me. And I am happy now :)

Here is the steps what I did. 

go to IBM ShopzSeries.
click My Orders/Create new order
Choose z/VM-Service RSU recomanded Service 
The most important step is Report installed software. I didn't do it at 
first time. Lots of trouble.
Follow the Tip
Then download all the envelops.

Then I have no problem follow the instructions to upgrade.

In order to veryfy how successful I am, I use q cplevel; and service all 
status

I did another test too. But confused:

After saw the becautiful 901, I create the installed software report 
again.
Upload to zSeries. Believe it should give me nothing to download at this 
time.
But I still get the same two packages as the last time.
Does someone know about what is wrong?

Magic trick is to order PTF UM97540 (note the last 3 digits). That
will get you the latest RSU. You should also check the PSP bucket for
the RSU and pick up any last minute PTFs that may be recommended
there.

You can see what the latest RSU is for any supported version/relese of z/VM by

Take a look at the RSU Recommended Service Upgrade section. There also

I just put on RSU703 last week and at some point (don't remember--the 
memory is said to be the 2nd thing to go), I had a new CPLOAD MODULE and 
MAP on the MAINT 493 disk and the CPLOAD MODULE on the 2nd PARM disk.  I 
used the black box SERVICE exec and then PUT2PROD.  I think the above 
was the case after SERVICE and before PUT2PROD.  See what's on the 2nd 
PARM disk.

Hello Shimon,

If you IPL from the 490 disk do you get a CMS level at 703?

I never used PUT2PROD, nor SERVICE,...  
But, issue a VMFSETUP ZVM CP and then look for the CPLOAD MODULE.
Compare its date with what you see on MAINT CF1 (the disk you are
supposed to IPL from).  PUT2PROD should have placed the CPLOAD MODULE
there.
(a check for CMS is less easy)

Jim,
How are you searching?  Could you be looking at a specific APAR or PTF and 
confusing the (1000) after the PTF with an SLU?  That (1000) indicates a PTF 
that is available, but not on an RSU.

What is the current RSCS Service Level?

When I search IBMLINK 568409601 r320 0202 seems to be the last one.
After that it is 568409601 r320 1000.
