Hi. We have a VM system with an IP connection to the real world over a CTC. I need to set up a connection to a vm running z/tpf which requires an osa-e card. This I believe I can simulate using DEFINE LAN QDIO, DEFINE NIC QDIO, and COUPLE for a guest lan or DEVICE/LINK for a point-to-point conne

It ought to. You are running with files created in 5.2 in the spool system, I presume. The install instructions did not include an SPXTAPE DUMP of all of the 5.2 spool and a load of the tapes on 5.4, did they? It has been a long time since I have seen instructions like that, probably the migration

Any errors on the MPROUTE console? We've found that when things go bad, MPROUTE usually has a complaint. You may want to turn on debug too. Could both your MPROUTE and your zebra be advertising the same routes? We inadvertantly did that with a /30 vipa subnet and it didn't matter until we m

This is a complicated problem, so please bear with the long preamble I have a VM TCPIP stack running level 520 on a z/VM 5.4.0 system. It is connected to an OSA on one side and a guest lan on the other. (It acts as a router for the guest lan.) It uses OSPF, so I have a MPROUTE machine going

You could use Rexx's IUCV support. Advantage (one reason why I started using it instead of SMSG/MSG): it can transfer large amounts of data. It is not too complicated. You can also use the CMS Multitasking queues. Brian Wade's web page has sample execs: http://www.vm.ibm.com/download/packages

The other "trick" I should mention is that PGSCPLOK is only set if the pa ge was explicitly locked to host real. If locked by command to host logical , SXSCPLOK is set in the corresponding SXSTE (another structure entirely, which is used to manage System Execution Space (Host Logical) page usage

Dave, are you looking to unlock just a subset of what was locked, or all of them? If you just want to unlock everything, a single UNLOCK command covering all the guest's storage (or two, if pages were explicitly locked to both real and logical) will do it. - Bill Holder, z/VM Development, IBM
