Do you have a single ID that owns all the shared DASD using Full Pack MDISK statements using the MWV Mode, and do all the z/OS guest link to these disks using just MW? Or do all the z/OS guest have the FP MDISK statements with the MWV mode? Larry Davis From: The IBM z/VM Operating System

Yes, We have a Guest user ID(DASDSHR) which owns all shared DASD using Full Pack MDISK statement like the below. Ex) MDISK 0A10 3390 DEVNO 0A10 MWV MDISK 0A11 3390 DEVNO 0A11 MWV MDISK 0A12 3390 DEVNO 0A12 MWV And three OS/390 guest users link the Full PAck MDISK with MW option.

I have three OS/390 v2.10 under z/VM. while i monitoring OS/390 Guest by perfomance toolkit, supervisor CPU usage is high around 20~30% and Emulated CPU is around 30~40%. I think supervisor CPU% is used by VM system(CP) and emulated CPU% used by Guest OS. 1)when or for what the supervisor CPU

Check the steal column. This is an anomaly, but the numbers on this server are high and often, which is why I am questioning. We do see performance drops at this point, so something is not right. 0 0860 14652 937188 88826000 0 0 108 24 0 0 100 0 0 0 0860

You do not win the prize. You left out two modules, RXS and RXU, that need to be reassembled, according to others who replied off-list. Either that or you win it for not including superfluous assemblies and they lose. Thanks to all who have replied, both those who saw the whole picture and

From memory and a study I did 20+ years ago, channel utilization above 30-35 percent is a problem. Keep in mind that was with old fashioned spinning dasd on block mpx channels, but it may still apply. Channel service time increased very gradually up to about 30-35%. There was an exponential curve

Excuse the non plain text email - for some reason I can't change that on this one. Whenever someone says batch and too long I/O delay is usually what comes to mind to me. 50-70% is too high. What kind of i/o service times are you getting? Can you convert to FICON? Or at least go back to 16

Hi... After got fix from Ingolf Salm for VSE/ESA runs under z10 BC, saga continues. Customer has MP3000 7060-H50 with internal disks. They are formated as 3390-3 only. Since DS6000 Interoperability matrix show that z/VM 4.4.0 is supported, no problem on zVM side. My question now is: Will

Hello Carlos Bodra, I would have to agree with Billy. z/VM 4.4.0 with the correct PTF's will see the DS6800. While I am not sure that VSE/ESA 2.3.1 will handle the DS6800 properly, I would suspect that VSE/ESA will handle it well if you MDISK everything.
