SIZE of CSE area for dasd models bigger 3390-9

Dear all, I am not sure how big the CSE Area need to be on DASD bigger than 3390-9. The planing manual shows only 3390-9, which has in fact 9 cylinders. How big the CSA Area need to be on 3390-27 and 3390-54? Thank you very much. Best regards, Fox

Re: SIZE of CSE area for dasd models bigger 3390-9

The number of cylinders listed for a 3390-9 is actually enough for a 3390-54. 9 cylinders can map all 65520 cylinders of a mod 54 and of course the smaller mod 27. Maybe the table in the documentation should say 3390-9 or bigger .. On Thu, Jun 12, 2008 at 5:13 AM, Fox Blue [EMAIL PROTECTED]

SERVICE exec with RSU

I received electronic service for z/VM 5.3, RSU 7304. I am not clear on interpreting the installation instructions. I received 4 files: S7858796.SHIPDOC S7858796.SHIPRSU1 S7858796.SHIPRSU2 S7858796.SHIPRSU3 My question or confusion is that is the fname and ftype that the SERVICE exec needs.

Re: SIZE of CSE area for dasd models bigger 3390-9

It's technically accurate becaues a disk with 65520 cylinder is still a 3390-9. Not that anyone calls them those... Bigger than those will be called 3390-A and can go to something like 262,000 cylinders. Marcy This message may contain confidential and/or privileged information. If you are not

Re: SIZE of CSE area for dasd models bigger 3390-9

Technically, the mod-27 and mod-54 are 3390 model 9s with increased number of cylinders; so the number is 9 cylinders for the CSE area (across the board). Steve Wilkins z/VM I/O Strategy Fox Blue

Re: SERVICE exec with RSU

I just did service on 5.3. I used the Download Director to get the s?.SHIPDOC etc to my pc. Then I uploaded to the mainframe (binary). You need to use the filetype of SERVLINK when you DETERSE the binary file. Hope that helps. -Original Message- From: The IBM z/VM Operating System

I got mine thru ShopZ and I remembered having to decide if I wanted to download them thru a browser or ftp. I chose browser and those 4 separate files are what were downloaded. Yes, I guess I meant RSU 5304. I just tried it again. Starting with the z/VM Electronically Delivered Service

Hi Steve, Yes - IPL'd the 2nd level (VMTEST). Before the IPL I ran a DFSMSRM Q LIB OPS with no errors from VMTEST (CMS). The error code indicates a APPC connect error Not sure if I need to look at some connection to the first level TSAF... I'm not a VM expert. -Original Message-

Re: SERVICE exec with RSU

It's working!! No help from the documentation. The only thing you said, Kim, that isn't necessary or wanted for an RSU is to do the SERVICE ALL SHIPDOCS. One of the many pieces of documentation says that you don't do that for an RSU, only for a COR. It went completely past me that when the

Hi I have set up a HiprSockets connection from z/VM 5.3 to one of my z/OS LPARS. I can PING the z/OS LPAR but when I try to PING the z/VM LPAR from the z/OS LPAR we time out. Is there anything I might be missing? We are using the OBEYFILE to bring the configuration in dynamically.

Hmmm ... I don't think a ISFC link is require to enable (3rd level) RMSMASTER on the guest to talk to the 3494 ... I think it's all done through the real device cabling (whatever that may be). All (well most) of our guests are hooked to the host via ISFC, so I never would have noticed a failure

Re: Oldest VM on a System Z?

IIRC z/VM 3.1 could run in either 32 or 64bit mode. I think there were (by default) 2 CP Nuclei generated with a SYSGEN, one for each mode, and a bootstrap that would load the correct one. Jim Bohnsack wrote: z/VM 3.1 was the first z release. z/VM v4 was a 64 bit version, i.e. z capable.
