Like Mark, I too do not have the UNITADD on the IODEVICE lines. If I recall correctly, you use this parameter to reassign the device number to something else. In your case, having them all 00 should/would cause a problem. This makes me wonder about my IOCP. I am not using a real 2105 but an

The allocation bit map created by CPFMTXA does not protect PERM space from being allocated to user MDISKs; rather, it indicates that the space does not contain any of the areas belonging to CP and that it is available for allocation to normal MDISKs. If you want cylinder 0 from being listed as

Thank you for the response, Dick. (and Tracy as well) I did peruse recent threads discussing VLANs including yours, but my requirement regarding the use of a specific NATIVE VLAN presents a different problem from what I saw in your definitions, especially considering that you are using z/VM 5.3,

From what I understand on 5.2, yes, you can't have a different default than a native. But, can't you just not use a default? Just specify it on the set vswitch grant command? Marcy This message may contain confidential and/or privileged information. If you are not the addressee or

Hello Aria, I have asked the same question. Our IOCP for DS6800 with four 1 g ficon cards and two enclosures. Each FICON card in the Z890 has two connections. This way one card can fail and we still have access to all DASD. Each dasd will have a preferred path too. CHPID

The number of control units doesn't make a difference to VM. From a performance perspective, just make sure you always have at least 1 preferred path on-line to each DS6000 disk. Steve Wilkins z/VM I/O Strategy

Ed and Steve, Thanks for the clarifications. Since I am using direct attached ESCON, I don't have any preferred paths. All the paths are online and attached. I could never find any manual that stated one way or the other if there was any improvement or not. Thanks Steve for clearing that up.

Marcy, On 5.2, if you specify a VLAN on the SET VSWITCH GRANT command you'll get a error message saying you cannot connect to a VLAN-UNAWARE VSWITCH (it's unaware if you do *not* specify a VLAN on the DEF VSWITCH command). Now, as it turns out, I believe I had the correct definitions originally

Some observations: - If your ESM is controlling links, the minidisk passwords are ignored. If it isn't, then you might try a password of ALL rather than ANY; there's nothing special about ANY. - Check your ESM (you don't specify what it is) docs for the proper DTCPARMS entries for ftpserve,
