Be careful with how you define the MAXDEVS. It will have an effect on your ability to do dynamic IO gen changes. I agree that the HSA has gotten a lot bigger than it was. IBM's answer is it has to be bigger to support all the new stuff. Paul Feller AIT Mainframe Technical Support [EMAIL PRO

I kept the LPARs but I really cut down on the OSA adapters. We have 4 OSA cards. 2 that supports the ICC devices 2 that supports are normal network traffic When I defined all the addresses and then gave all addresses to all 4 lpars. Now, all the addresses on the DS6800 are on all LPARs, but I a

Did you cut back your HSA by removing LPARs, reducing MAXDEVS, or both? Mostly I want to verify that MAXDEVS impacts HSA size. Brian Nielsen On Wed, 16 Aug 2006 15:33:43 -0500, Tom Duerbusch <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: >I do believe that it is the max devices defined, but that is also across

That is really huge (768K, that is). I remember a 64K HSA on our 3081. It could grow in increments of 64K. And the location was dynamic - if a storage error was encountered when loading the HSA during POR, it would drop down to the next lower segment. The amount of storage it needed was dependen

I do believe that it is the max devices defined, but that is also across LPARs. What initially bit me, was I defined 4 lpars. Why? I don't know. I needed two, a 390 and an IFL. But I thought about a test one and perhaps a "systems" one. And the convention was to define the devices to all LPAR

HSA size question

2006-08-16 Thread Brian Nielsen
On a z/890, does the size of the HSA change if the value of the MAXDEVS parameter on the RESOURCE statement in the IOCP is increased/decreased? The z/890 System Oveview manuals says the HSA size varies according to the "size and complexity of the I/O configuration", but it's not clear if i

It turned out that my problem was the way my application was built. I had started with a main routine using the CMS Multitasking applmain( ) linkage. I thought I needed to use applmain( ) to use the multitasking functions. The main routine created a thread which initially did not have any TCP
