Hi Maneesh. Which operating system do you have in your mainframe ?
I have z/VM 3.1 and have installed the marist linux under it without
problems. This is a version you can download from the internet. Check

(in case that you have VM/ESA or z/VM).

There is no 'upgrade' path. You have to do a new install.

Do you mean zvm dumped and restarted when page AND spool space were full?
Spool full conditions result in the stopping of all spool activities -
bad enough - but vm continues.
If page space is full, CP pages to spool, when spool is full and page is
full then its dump and restart time.

Yes. That was when I discovered the Q Alloc MAP and Indicate paging all

monitor usage. This was before we had the Linux machines autologed, so I
would come in and the Linux guests would be down.

Not necessarily.
I believe that you will find that if you separate pageswap from spool, and
make sure that there is adequate pageswap space, then the norm will be that

No. Debian is a Linux distribution on its own, just like Marist.
You install one or the other in a given virtual machine. Not both.

They are two separate (and completely different) operating systems. It's
one or the other, if all you have is an LPAR. If you have VM, you can
have both in different virtual machines.

Basically, you can do one or the other.

Both Marist and Debian are versions of Linux, as are Suse and RedHat and Slacware.
Choose one of the five. Frankly, the Marist version is quite old now and rather
out-of-date, still

Does anyone know if the MP2K systems will support the HMC option to boot
