In changing a z/VM system from Version 4 to Version 5:
1) is there any problem with the V5 system using the existing
spool files of V4?
2) Can SFS servers that were running V4 simply be started up
with the SFS servers of V5 on the same mdisks?
I tried one SFS server and it failed to
You got me... almost exactly one year ago I updated all my EXECs to become
'RTNSTATE DMSINXED'
if Rc0 then do; 'SUBCOM XEDIT' ; Xedit=(rc=0); end
else do; call csl 'DMSINXED RETC REAS T'; Xedit=(reas=0 t=0) ; end
But, this SIGNAL SAMPEXEC didn't have filetype EXEC (nor XEDIT, nor
REXX),
I went from V4 to V5 without any special treatment for spool nor SFS.
I work like this since about VM/ESA R2.2.
That is, I re-use the spool space of my old VM in the new release.
For SFS, I simply started them with the new CMS level (most of the
time, when I do that I have an eye on the SFS

Most of my execs do indeed not send their messages to XEDIT (I've got
got less than 10 EXECs that do), for exactly the reasons you mention.
My former IBM colleague who also worked years for my famous
ex-customer, he though had a SUBCOM XEDIT test in his standard REXX

Shimon,
Was your SFS server up and running when you DDR'd it? If so, it's
likely some data changed while your DDR was running causing you to end
up with a dirty copy of the FilePool.

When you log on to the z/VM system you are presented with a command line. Do you have a
z/VM session with the z9 system? If so, log on with your user id and password.

Dave,
I don't think that merging the two versions of USER DIRECT (which was
the answer you got) will have any affect on the EXTENT CONTROL file.
What you have on the testbed now will not change unless you get the
two EXTENT CONTROL files and merge entries from each. So if you want

Yes, no problem with SFS, and surely not these day where not too many
new things happen to SFS. Even in the past, when SFS detected it used
a newer level, it automatically updated its catalog with new fields,
no user intervention required.

Correct. AFAIK there are no issues with bringing a SFS server down under z/VM
4.n, then bringing it back up on a level of z/VM 5.n ... and then going back if
for some reason you had to.

Actually, I don't believe there were any changes to the format/structure of
spool files between z/VM 4.n and z/VM 5.n ... only to the way CP handles
manipulating them.
One notable change is the introduction of DCSSGs with z/VM 5.4 ... but you
obviously won't have any of those (yet) anyway.

Well, for going forward, it works without any issues.
My z/VM 5.2 SFS VMSERVU server was initially created on VM/SP 5 and has been
thru many upgrades since. (But no down grades). If you have a tape backup of
any pool, use Ditto to browse the first block. It will say what

Mark,
What did you put in SYSTEM DTCPARMS or node DTCPARMS for your SSL
server? If you want to change anything for :nick.ssl in IBM DTCPARMS,
you have to copy the whole section for that nickname to your local file.
For example, I wanted to add a session limit and exempt low-strength

I keep forgetting that on VM/SP 5 we were on FSF and converted to SFS on VM/SP
