Dear all,
What is the right approach to define VMSERVx machines to work in CSE?
When the directory is shared and the names of those machines MUST be the
same on all the z/VM instances there is a conflict since they use all the
same minidisks. I couldn't find too much information about this.
The VMSERVx servers can be started on one VM only at a time.
But, they can be reached by users on other VM systems: you'd make a
CTC connection between the VM systems and use ACTIVATE ISLINK to make
the CP's talk to eachother. Global resources are then available
throughout the ISFC collection.
Kris,
thank you for this info. But isn't it the case that e.g. DFSMS/VM need th
ose
SFS servers and if so, I thought the name MUST always be the original one
.
If this is not the case than fine. Does it mean that the DFSMS an be run
from other SFS servers as well?
Best regards,

We downloaded the suse-10 sp2 starter system and installed it with no
problems. Using this starter system we are almost finished upgrading a
suse-9 guest to suse-10 sp2.
Another approach - the one I use - is to add each of the VMSERV[S|U|R]
systems to the XSPOOL input and output exclude lists in SYSTEM CONFIG. This
prevents them from participating in the shared spool configuration, but
allows them to log on to multiple VM systems in the CSE cluster
concurrently.
DFSMS wants to have a VMSYS server. VMSYS filepool IDs are local, so
each VM system would need one.
When you use CSE with a shared CP directory,SASAFFIN records in the
directory can make that users in one system have other minidisks than
users in other systems. So, even with CSE, you can have
That doesn¹t deal with the write-enabled minidisks owned by those users,

My guess is that all of the GUIs won't be actively doing things all at
the same time. Newer levels of Windows can also run headless.
Granted 3000 copies of Windows will probably require some pretty good
sized hardware, this sounds like a pretty cool product.
