question to DS8000 and Flashcopy activation

Hi all, I have to setup the flashcopy feature at a customer's DS8K next month. I know how to activate an additional feature code on this machine. At least I hope for flashcopy this works the same as an activation of additional dasds. This I have already done some time ago. When the activation

Colin, is it possible, that the files are not closed properly? Try a 'FINIS * *' fm before you rename the files. You say that after an IPL CMS the error condition is cleared. this may be an indicator for a not correctly closed file. kind regards Franz Josef Pohlen Am 15.02.2010 17:54, sch

Anson, you can also order it via internet delivery. The ptf number is always UM97, e.g. zVM 5.3 UM97530, zVM 5.4 UM97540. There is also a menu point of ordering recommended Service for zVM, There you can get also the critical service ptfs. kind regards Franz Josef Pohlen Am 09.02.2010 08:

I do it because mostly after RSU there are Shared segments being rebuilt. Therefore I copy also the spool volume. I also don't think that I can use the same spool volume in first and second level vm. At least I have never tried it. I mentioned the spool backup for the possible case that the vm

Berry, what about another idea of maintaining zVM. I have no user data on the zvm dasds, there is only the software and some config staff, which does normally not change. So I can copy the zvm system (res spl pag) to other previously reserved dasds and start zVM from there in second level. The

As far as I know the customer is not allowed to make any changes to the software of an HMC. There is an upgrade process from the IBM support which does it. I had one customer who has bought a used z800 with an OS/2 HMC. During the refresh of the patches the IBM technician also reinstalled the H
