Stephen, We are using the IPMAILERADDRESS in the SMTP CONFIG file to route all email from VM through our standard email server on the network. The trick is to make sure that SMTP cannot resolve any addresses so that is uses the IPMAILERADDRESS. There may be an easier/better way,

We started with it all in our area(z/VM and Linux) ie Mainframe support. As the work load increased, someone decided the Linux support needed to be moved to the Unix group (Lots of politics involved in that decision) . Now the Unix group has decided this work can all run better and cheaper on 'P'

IPL 190 hangs in zVM 5.4

Hi all, 10 days ago we activated z/VM 5.4 in production. All worked really well. But yesterday when I logged on MAINT I noticed that CMS didn't IPL. It now seems that IPL 190 no longer works (in any VM-userid). After entering the IPL 190 command (or just logging on to MAINT) nothing happens.
