Re: CMS disk weirdness between processors

I fully support Phil's claim! I have been sharing minidisks between several systems for years and any change is hard work, though error-prone, to keep those 100% synchronous without ESM and *MAP* programs working across system boundaries. Wolfgang Software AG - Group Executive Board: Karl-Heinz

Support Element (SE) vs HMC and IP Addresses

2011-01-19 Thread George Henke/NYLIC
HMC emulates an SE, but does it have separate IP addresses, separate interfaces, or are they the same as the SE? Does the SE have IP addresses or are they only for the HMC?

Re: Support Element (SE) vs HMC and IP Addresses

2011-01-19 Thread Mark Pace
The SEs each have an IP address, and the HMC has an IP address on their own private network. The HMC may also have another NIC that can be connected to another network, say to reach the outside world, or allow you to access from your own private network. On Wed, Jan 19, 2011 at 10:00 AM, George

My recent experience also shows that you need to obey the design: - there is a private network between the HMC and both SEs - it must not be part of your own LAN to get remote access to the HMC. I had a case that was not set up well: there was only one LAN. After applying some maintenance to the

That is true regardless of the OS which you are trying to IPL. If there is a problem attempting to do the hardware load function, then the z microcode loads a hard wait of F. It is a hardware function. John McKown Systems Engineer IV IT Administrative Services Group HealthMarkets(r) 9151

Good catch, Ed! I suspect that somewhere along the line Tom did something like DDR the sysres to a new volume, and then re-labeled it. In doing so, at some point perhaps the allocation map was wiped out, and was then manually re-allocated. Tom... if this is actually a new sysres and not your
