IBM introduced Server Time Protocol (STP) as a replacement for the Sysplex Timers (9037s), to move that functionality into the System z itself and eliminate a separate hardware device. STP, an orderable mainframe feature, helps simplify mainframe deployment. STP has a function called ETS

Installing RMSONLY component of DFSMS/VM

2007-10-15 Thread KEETON Dave * OR SDC
I recently installed the RMSONLY component of DFSMS/VM to allow me access to our 3495. Things looked like they're installed, but I'm missing some things and or things don't work as they should. I tried to install everything using the defaults specified in the Program Directory for DFSMS/VM FL221.

Thanks! It appears that the reason I didn't have any commands available to DFSMS is because I wasn't accessing 1B5. Now that I've accessed it and added it to the PROFILE EXEC, I can issue the commands. Regards, Dave -Original Message- From: The IBM z/VM Operating System [mailto:[EMAIL

Upgrade to z/VM 5.3 hangs

2007-10-15 Thread Leland
I am wondering if anyone has seen this when upgrading from VM 5.2 to VM 5.3. We opened an ETR for our issue with IBM this morning. Yesterday we attempted to upgrade to z/VM 5.3 0701 and ran into a problem that caused us to back out to z/VM 5.2. After bringing up 10 service machines and roughly

Make sure you get a snapdump next time. There's quite a few HIPERs out there beyond 0701, you may want to go pull them all. Sounds kinda similar to something we've experienced - resolved by VM64269 and VM64297. Marcy Cortes This message may contain confidential and/or privileged information.
