Re: zVM 4.4 on a z9

In z/VM, from the first release on, CPLOAD contained two CP nuclei: CPLOAD32 and CPLOAD64. During IPL, the 64 bit version was be loaded if the HW was capable, otherwise CPLOAD32 was activated. So indeed: if you used the standards, simply switching to a z-machine caused a switch from CP nucleus.

The point I was trying to make was that with z/VM 4.x, there are two different nucleus programs. One for 31 bit and the other for 64 bit. And if your hardware change, causes you to change to a different nucleus, you might have problems, hence, something to stick in the back of your mind. I we

That is the postscript error handler RSCS sends by default prior to the print job. Perhaps the printer doesn't like something about this postscript program. This really is for handling of plain text files. You can turn off this feature by using: EPARM='EH=NO' in the link parm statement. Best R
