Is the OSA port set up correctly? I spent many happy hours trying to start an OSA port a couple of years ago until I discovered that the port was set up as Token Ring, not Ethernet. The reason? There was a little wrap plug in the T/R port... I took the T/R wrap plug out, put the Ethernet one

We have to use custom-made LSZH (Low Smoke - Zero Halogen) in our new computer rooms - ours are a very nice bright green. I've also seen beige ones - I think they, like the green ones, were made by someone other than IBM. Regards, Roy Harrop D1-38, CTC +44 (0) 1489 444 391

FW: VTAPE from Virtual Software Systems

2008-09-04 Thread HARROP, Roy
We considered VTAPE some years ago, but then went out and bought a brand-new IBM VTS. It's shared between our (very old) VM/ESA 2.4 and (even older) OS/390 systems. It's set up so that OS/390 sees a string of 16x 3490Es and VM sees 32x 3490E. We use a lot of NL tapes, and the data format on

FW: ADD VIRTUAL MEMORY DYNAMICALLY

Am I missing something here? The subject matter is Add Virtual Memory Dynamically, which has got to be a function worth having - but why would anyone want to remove it? Surely it's akin to being able to add packs for paging - and you can't take them away (cue for a song?). This may be half a

Ricoh printer/copiers and VM

2006-10-03 Thread HARROP, Roy
Has anyone succeeded in making a VM system print to Ricoh Aficio 3045 PCL 5e or Ricoh Aficio 3235C Multifunctional copiers via RSCS? Weve recently replaced a lot of our photocopiers with these machines, which are connected to the Windoze network to allow printing from the PCs. I now

FW: real ctc vs vctc on tcp/ip

2006-09-12 Thread HARROP, Roy
We have two CTCs between an old VM/ESA system and an even older OS/390 system running on separate physical processors. One of the CTCs connects the TCP/IP's on these systems and the other connects VM's RSCS to OS/390's JES2. The relevant bit of the VM IOCDS: CHPID
