The support statement for z/VM 5.2 was 128GB, but from a practical
standpoint, the value might be slightly lower. It is workload
dependent. The key variable to watch is how much memory below 2GB
is being consumed by PTRM space. See my share presentation:

We have z/VM5.3, with an IBM 3494 tape library system running RMSMASTER

Every so often someone asks the IBMVM list how to find out if a specific

The MP3000 might work OK for the DR system.. there may be some minor
issues, to implement your tape system, but I don't think they want to use
the MP3000 as the 'production' machine. You cannot (legally) run the
ESL licensed software on the MP3000 so you would have to go to GOLC based
licenses
Mike,
This type of sharing is what this list is all about. Thanks for the tip,
it is a good one.

This process also works identically from non-VM platforms (ie. sending
VMWARE accounting data to z/OS) for which using RSCS is not an option.
Actually, there are TCPNJE services for VMWare, but I can see the point.

Les,
It's because in this case the play/interaction is intiment between the
end user and the DYNAMCMS server ... DFSMS is completely out of the
picture ... the tape drive is simply being CP GIVE'd back and forth
between the end user and the DYNAMCMS server (dictated by DynamT/VM
code).

That's correct, but in this case irrelevant ...

In this case it has nothing to do with ATTACH MULTIUSER ... it has to do
with a timing issue relative to 3590s spacing out ... no interrupt for
2, 3, 4, 5, 20 minutes is just fine :-(
Hence we have the IBM recommendation/default for MIH for a 3590 at 12.5
minutes (or is it 20.5 minutes)
Not to beat the dead horse ... but Mike is correct in assuming that
Dynam/T VM does not currently have support for MULTIUSER ATTACH or
recognition of it.
For those on the list that run VM:Tape, it does (via DEBUG setting) ...
there are a few of you using it (and yes, it was coordinated with
