What is ESR-style vectored linkage? ESR just stands for Extended Service Router. It originated as a way to map multiple SVC functions into a single SVC number. SVC 109 is an example. There is no deep magic involved. Your PC maintains a table, potentially a table of tables of tables... etc. Your

I'd like to add a few other thoughts onto of Mark's comments. Yes, I do work for CA, and have supported MIM. Just a disclosure, lest some people accuse me of hiding my true identity. I'm sure there are some with some negative impressions of MIM; but I did want to mention what our very large

It depends but for us Yes. If 3 Linux images was to become 30 images for production z/VM is mandatory since I don't have a z9 sitting around and we run some other work. What has not been mentioned is that if you don't have z/VM automation of many images becomes much more complex. What's the

The formatting is excellent - the filtering is non-existent. As I alluded earlier, the prime (extra) functionality I see as required in the field is the ability to identify storage leaks. An option to eliminate all matched get-free pairs would go a *LONG* way to achieving this goal. I

We had an excessive disabled spin loop due to an RSM bug that we didn't have the fix for yet. So far, so bad. As the person also responsible for system automation, I have been asked to 'automate iee178i' to 1. appear red on the console and 2. send an email when the spin occurs. When I looked at
