A little more complicated... I think you want 'VINPUT VMSG' Then, if your guest has a directory console statement so it has other than SYSC, you get: "HCPPCX6531E The operating system will not accept commands from the service processor." Of course in that case a simple send works but you still need

In the guests' VMDBKs, in the SIEBK is stored the offset from the hardware clock that gets loaded when the guest is run. I don't recall the offset in the block. Unless that's different they should both be seeing the same CPU clock. -- Mike Harding z/VM System Support /sp Linux on 390 Port wro

Assuming you're running the supplied SMFPROF, take a look at the "smffreq" variable setting. This may not be the day for it actually to do anything. Also, if you read the code, it's looking for a list of servers to be stacked and failing that looks in its reader for files coming from your racf ser

I think there's also the factor that most are well into their 30's before they mature enough to understand that getting the job done reliably is more important in the long run than flash and sizzle. Ron Wells' post makes a good point, but the fact is that as it settles into its hipervisor roll, VM
