Alan, You are correct as usual, and I can't honestly think why I said that, I am getting AMODE and RMODE muddled with architecture. (senior moment as we say in GB land) What I meant to say is that it runs fine as an AMODE 24 module without changing any settings. Much to my suprise it does no

Re: Assigning 3390 DASD for Use in a zLinux Filesystem

If the user wants to give the Linux guest a full volume mini disk, you can also use the DEVNO format of the MDISK statement in the directory. This avoids any concern regarding the real volume's volume serial number. HITACHI  DATA SYSTEMS Raymond E. Noal Senior Technical Engineer Office: (408)

Re: HyperPAV usage

Each control unit can be in either Hyperpav or static PAV mode; not both. Therefore, you can define MDISK E100 with 3 virtual static PAV alias devices, but E100 must be associated with a real device that is on a controller in static PAV mode. Also, there must be 3 real alias devices on that cont

Re: Where Do I Go From Here?

Look the GCC compiler I built on VM/370 R6 runs fine in 370 mode in zVM5.2, as do many of the other application built on that platform. You only need to worry about "real" 370 mode if you application issues 370 mode specific instructions, typically SIO , SIOF etc. or wants to run with a BCMODE PSW.

Thanks to all who have responded to this post. There are many interesting ideas that I can present to the upgrade team.

HyperPAV usage

Is it possible to take advantage of HyperPAV with SLES9/10? I realize that HyperPAV is not directly supported by the kernel versions available in SLES, so it looks like we're stuck with static aliases. So, what I'd like to do is define a bunch of HyperPAV aliases for z/VM to manage and then d

Re: Assigning 3390 DASD for Use in a zLinux Filesystem

What the others have said, plus: if you're using an MDISK you shouldn't ATTACH the DASD. That's why the cylinder zero label would have changed when the Linux guest formatted the volume. If this is indeed what you did you'll want to remove the volume from the Linux guest and start again. Ot

No zSeries Machines provide 370 mode (370 mode got removed in some of te latest 9672 generations). To be able to use a MACHINE 370, 370 mode must be provided by the HW, Running VM/ESA as guest of z/VM will not help. The solution/bypass to allow running CMS 370-mode applications in XA-mode machines
