OK, Chuckie -- what have you done with Alan this time!? Obviously that trace message was a perfectly adequate typical self-documenting message. ;-) How about an even more useful message: DTCOCPxxxI Conn 2: Client 10.11.12.13 screen dimensions (66 x 160) too large for DATABUFFERSIZE (8192).

Sufficient information, but if you have to kill a connection due to resource exhaustion, probably the message should be displayed in the console log without having to turn on tracing to see it. This is the sort of thing that one would want to catch with automation, eg PROP, etc. __

Hi Mike, Well, you could do the following: Enable tracing of Telnet (for example: NETSTAT OBEY TRACE TELNET), Connect to the z/VM Telnet server and cause the disconnect, Get the TCPIP stack console (for example: NETSTAT CP SP CONS CLOSE) The resultant TCP/IP console shoul

Hi Don, What you have looks fine, though I have a few minor points to offer: - Newer IBM DASD contains an Access Control List that identifies which HOST WWPNs (associated with the FCP CHPID) can access which LUNs within the box, so you won't always be able to get to every LUN in the box as you

I think I'm beginning to understand the use of a SCSI formatted SHARK. If I'm correct, the devices defined in the IOCP for the FCP chpids are actua lly just communications paths to the SHARK. Any address defined on the chpid can access any LUN on the SHARK. I think my steps would be: 1) Attach

Same thing happens with z/VM 5.2 and HostExplorer 10. 49 x 160 works on my system. At a width of 160, rows of 50 or more, have the disconnect problem. I know this doesn't answer your question. But it seems to indicate that there is not a fix in the more recent z/VM and HostExplorer(?). -Orig
