Sorry for not writing back sooner... That's exactly what we did --
drop the direct OSA connection and ran TCP/IP off the VSwitch. Worked
(and switched and recovered) great!

The particular machine is going to be used at IBM's Gaithersburg facility for
about 1 week's testing. The other period mentioned included setup and
breakdown times. We do not need to worry about the SET MAXUSERS command, we
have it constrained by the number of userids in the directory.

Bill,
Richard Lewis will be working with our people during the tests. When running a
test, the directories will be R/O to all users. There may be updates to some
during the in-between times. None of the other users of the system during a

Richard,
Yes, you need to define sufficient paging space. If I said otherwise,
I'd have nothing to fall back on when you call in a problem. :-)
However, if you are using these as read-only DIRC directories in
dataspaces, then you have the advantage that SFS uses mapped minidisks
to the dataspace.
Big "IF", what happens if this server (the SFS containing the DIRC
directories), crashs? Would it also dump the dataspaces? If so, you
will need lots of spool space also.
But you shouldn't need additional paging space for a 2 week time
period. Now, if it was a 2 year time period, then, yes, you

A quick calculation shows that 5.7M blocks x 4K bytes per block is about

You can also run with a single CMS and multiple LE segments using a series
of SEGMENT ASSIGN commands. Refer to
http://www.vm.ibm.com/devpages/donovanm/zvmle.html#MULTI for an example
of how to do this.
Mike Donovan
What you also can do (without the need for an extra 190-disk) is defining
a segment at the same place as the LE ones, and load those before starting
any LE program. Preparation:
CP Q NSS NAME SCEE MAP # CP Q NSS NAME SCEEX MAP
Then a DEFSEG NOSCEE xxx-yyy SN # DEFSEG NOSCEEX kkk-lll SN
and SAVE

This is at least a description of what went wrong in VM. Jim's response is

You can save the LE segments with different names. Then put the updated
SYSTEM SEGID file on a different S-disk. Then IPL that disk. Or,
remove the segments from the SYSTEM SEGID file on a different 190 disk.
Then you should get the modules in the LOADLIB.
