Hi Graham, You can find OSA codes in System z10, System z9 and Eserver zSeriesOpen Systems Adapter-Express Customer's Guide and Reference SA22-7935-10 .. The OSA is probably not cabled up correctly.. :-) OSA Reject Codes Any of the following OSA return codes can be included in a message

Look at the invoice when the box was purchased or placed on maintenance. On an individual drive, on the DS6800 you might look for a log file for when that dasd was last created. Lots of log files there. But there is no date, that I'm aware of, on the header, vtoc, allocation map, etc. If

If you are talking about reassigning disks to another system, a CMS format is good enough. If you are decommissioning the drives then talk to the vender or have them crushed. A DASD subsystem isn't easy to destroy anymore. 1. You have pools of extents, and not all extents may be used, but

Tried it once. The I/O detection code in CP is so much superior and is so much easier to use and manage that I went back and haven't looked back since. The only place it really makes sense is in shops where the entire IO config is controlled from zOS and they aren't comfortable with

I run all my IO Gen's from the z/OS side for 3 reasons. 1) z/OS needs both the IOCDS and IODF to be in sync for dynamic gens. 2) VM senses the hardware changes and needs nothing in addition to the sensed environment 3) I grew up on MVS/OS390/z/OS and am still learning VM. I love the fact that I

The one thing I can think of is Appendix A of the General Information Man uals, IBM Processors Supported by VM. The GI manual for z/VM 4.2.0 is the last one to mention VM/ESA 2.3.0. See http://publibz.boulder.ibm.com/epubs/pdf/hcsf8a50.pdf. It shows support of processors up to the z900. (The
