Re: RSU question

Marian, When I install z/VM it asks for RSU disk. Is it possible to use latest RSU downloaded from shopzseries at this time Once (VM 5.3 timeframe I believe), someone suggested that this could be done. So we installed z/VM and skipped the RSU. Then we ran IPWIZARD to get z/VM on the

The initial RSU of a VM release is often fixing serious errors, your experience confirms this. But, if you don't need FTP to upload a newer RSU (e.g. can use PCOMM filetransfer, or a minidisk of a VM system hosting a secondlevel installation, then one could consider skipping the initial RSU. In

In my case it was that simple. There were no active links. I thought there was more to do than just update the CONFIG file and detach from system. Guess not. Thanks to all. Thank you, Scott -Original Message- From: The IBM z/VM Operating System [mailto:ib...@listserv.uark.edu] On

Is anyone successfully mirroring DASD using Hitachi Universal Replicator (HUR) for a z/VM environment with Linux guests? I know that there are challenges because z/VM doesn't timestamp its I/O but Linux does. I'm being told that HUR doesn't support Linux timestamps. Is that true? Allegedly,
