Userid Hung using VTAPE from VSSI

2007-01-03 Thread Hans Rempel
I just started to use VTAPE from VSSI for one of my clients. My CMS test worked 
fine. I tried it for a vseguest and when I detached the drive with a scratch 
tape mounted the userid hung. CP messages are just be queued. I used the VTQ 
command and noticed that the scratch tape was still mounted for my VSE Guest. 
Issuing vtrun command for my VSE guest just hung my cms user also. Something is 
waiting for work to complete.

z/VM 4.4, unsupported I know MP3000.  The VSSI software is up to date. I 
contacted the VSSI and they are looking into it. I hate to schedule an IPL just 
to clear these userids. Has anyone experience a similar problem. Since I’m 
unfamiliar with this product does anyone have any comments regarding there 
experience with it?

Thanks Hans

Not sure if this went out the first time

I just started to use VTAPE from VSSI for one of my clients. My CMS test worked 
fine. I tried it for a vseguest and when I detached the drive with a scratch 
tape mounted the userid hung. CP messages are just be queued when I reconnect 
to the userid. I used the VTQ command from another cms userid and noticed that 
the scratch tape was still mounted for my VSE Guest. Issuing vtrun command for 
my VSE guest just hung my cms user also. Something is waiting for work to

You might try issuing a CP HALT to the real device address, but I
don't know if that is a viable option when using VTAPE?
