A customer asked me today how she could find out what the maximum allowable
virtual storage size was for a given guest (without looking at the CP
directory entry). The only thing I could think of was
CP DEFINE STORAGE reallybignumber
and seeing if it fails. Of course, that carries a risk: if
Is there another way? QUERY VIRTUAL STORAGE MAX or something
would seem like a reasonable extension...
Phil,
Could you do a DEF STOR 1024M or some other really large value
and check the value specified in the CP response saying you
asked for too much?
def stor 1024m
yes but if it works you're toast! Reipl time

But Rob, that leaves the data still on disk.
What you need to do is DDR the disks to tape, then data security erase
the tapes, and then obviously -- restore the erased tapes to the disk.
Voila - no more data on disk! Of course you'd need to restore from the
data security erased tapes to disk

Reminds me of years ago in a data center in South Dakota that was short

cards to tape and when we needed some, just punch them off the tape...

CP doesn't keep the maximum size in the VMDBK. Have you ever noticed that
you don't have to logoff/logon after you raise the maximum in the
directory?
It really wouldn't be too hard to have something like
QUERY VIRTUAL STORAGE DEFAULT : MAXIMUM
and get the default or maximum storage from the directory definitions.

SCP uses SSH under the covers. Your local SCP uses SSH to connect with a
partner SCP. From what I have seen, it does spawn a second process on
the local side, so it's the same SSH command people would execute for
non-SCP work. Multiple processes is cumbersome, and on CMS (OpenVM) is
