For scalability, no. In fact, since the I/O is per channel and not per

At one point early in a prior life, I tried pinning each EDEV on its own

shared is the exported file system; do you mean that something must be
done on the MVS side to make the sequential dataset accessible by the CMS
NFS client? I understand about the BFS requirements over on the CMS side.

Try the OPENVM DEBUG command to see if that will give a clue about what is
going wrong. I would start with OPENVM DEBUG MSG or OPENVM DEBUG MOUNT.
The command is documented in the OpenExtensions Command Reference.

So ... We're enjoying the wonderful function of IPGATE. Ahhh...
Now have a habit of grabbing SFS directories remotely. File and
content manglement is so much better!
We also have a smattering of things in BFS land. Sharing BFS spaces
is needed less frequently than sharing SFS directories, but
The overhead is real, but its cost is not clear.
The difference between the performance of direct FCP -vs- EDEV has not
been fully measured (or at least not widely reported.)
I'm still looking for numbers.
Which is faster? For a guest to perform QDIO or for CP to handle it?
Traditionally, we
Is the address on YOUR end already in use?
LPR/LPD protocol has (or used to) a requirement that the clients
connected from a limitted range of ports (including the same port as
used for target). So if you already have an LPR/LPD server on your
end or if you have used up all of the client ports
You want EDEV.
EDEV lets FCP disks look like traditional FBA DASD, so you can slice
them up into minidisks, quite like CKD.
The way it works is you define an EDEV at some otherwise not-in-use
RDEV address, then add WWPN and LUN for each path to the intended FCP
disk. You then VARY ON the EDEV
On any Linux distribution, you can in a pinch create swap space from a
regular file:
mkdir -p -m 700 /var/swap
touch -m 600 /var/swap/moreswap
dd if=/dev/zero of=/var/swap/moreswap bs=8192 count=8192
mkswap /var/swap/moreswap
swapon /var/swap/moreswap
What a mess! Very confusing. For clarification, Ray is asking (and
please confirm, Ray) about the ECHOING of certain commands. UCENG (or
other SET LANG) would apply to RESPONSES from commands. Vewy
diffewent.
In my experience, commands echoed by CMS are echoed as entered and
have been for a
LPAR implies the s390 (or s390x) instruction set and architecture.
Xen implies the i386 (or ia64 or x86_64) instruction set and architecture.
The two are really unrelated.
