Dear all,
I am wondering about the reaction of z/VM in case it would lose one or two
page datasets.
The reason is that I have a configuration with two DS-8000 where the page
datasets are spread all over those two machines.
DS-1 has the sysres, spool, and some page datasets and DS-2 it has
Dear All,
Funny, you asked this question today. I just experienced yesterday at
the D/R site the same event. The page volumes were initialized with no
page allocation causing the system to fail - HCP3000IE Catastrophic
System Failure - REIPL the system. The error code is PGT004. I've to
I was just wondering how many slots can be added in the system config file?
Thanks.
There comes a time in each sysprog's career that opening a manual, before
asking a question, is a better idea.
I've been there, done that, have the t-shirt - and it doesn't fit me any
more, either. Most of us on the list have been through this rite of
passage.
This might be your time. See:
Mike,
Truly, this is a wonderful thing. Found the answer...NOW send my that T-Shirt.
Thanks

If you are referring to CP_Owned slots, you can define up to 255.You
always want to have some slots defined as Reserved, so you can add
volumes to the list while your system is running.
Hint: Gaps in slot numbers defined
And when you are reading back from tape with multiple volume dumps, use the
'SKIP n' option to position to the correct dump first.

Sounds like a good default to set in the default SYSTEM CONFIG for the next=
release since it now requires machines with gobs of memory compared to the=
old days. Requirement coming your way.=20

If you get an I/O error paging out or paging in, I would suspect that z/VM
would abend.
I would think that by having the paging volumes on both, you would be
increasing your odds of a crash by 2x (1 for each ds8000 that could fail).
You don't have to replicate your page volumes, but you

Yep, in my old age I've become come what portly.

Other than the age of the potential wearer, you may have washed it in hot
water. It is old enough to have predated the shrink proof cotton era isn't it?
:-) Anyway, that is a good excuse for you.

Sorry... the T-shirt probably wouldn't fit you, either. It seems to have
mysteriously shrunk over the years. What would cause that? :-)

You didn't mention what FTP client software you're using. Some make it
easier than others, but as you know/suspect - a binary transfer is what
you need. Perhaps the FTP client you are using is at fault.
There are a number of FTP clients you could try, which a Google search
will readily

An interesting effect is that using that method, following it with a pipe
