Out of the box, RMSMASTR behaves very badly on a signal shutdown of your VM
system.
We have to use this to mount tapes in the VTS.
RMSMASTR has files in VMSYSU: and VMSYS:, which both use signal shutdown by
default.
RMSMASTR hangs up the shutdown of VMSYS: until your system default shutdown

Hello VM'ers.
We have new z196 boxes being installed that will have VM only and no z/OS.
z/OS folks have been doing our i/o gens for many years.
They tell me that they can write the new IOCDS from z/OS but will be unable to
dynamically activate it from z/OS. POR's would be required.
Is this
can use HCD to manage the IOCP but you will have to perform the dynamic
commands and activate the new IOCP

Ok, we found this that describes what we can do.

It looks like the CBDSACT utility will generate the dynamic activation stuff
for us.

Right, that’s where we were before with them doing all the work and just
sensing the diffs. We were on a shared CEC. We’re ditching z/OS on our new
CEC s ☺

Well, you may want to just replicate that spool too. You can then just IPL and
go format some page volumes before you bring up any workload.
Saves you from recreating all the NSS's as well.
The headache is probably not worth the savings.

Tested what upgrade path? There's an upgrade path?!
Or maybe you are talking about running the 5.4 CMS under 6.1 CP or something
like that?
We're on George's page. There's nothing compelling in 6.1 for us. And we have
a lot of new function in 5.4 available by SPE which is way easier to do.
Well, if you had a new install on z10+ and not an upgrade, it would certainly
be the thing to do.
For those of use with 10+ systems, it's not worth a jump.
There wasn't even an ESP run for 6.1 since there was so little function that
didn't go into 5.4. Some customers did get the new function
I find it easiest just to do the service and put2prod on the production systems.
Others have ways of moving all the parts around... but it could be a big
inconvenience if you had to put an emergency PTF on quickly.
We run service ahead of time and right before the IPL, run the put2prod.
