I'm not sure I remember correctly (it's been a long time), but I seem to recall that the LCU is defined in the IOCDS/IODF. That is, you define the logical construct in the host, and then create units and assign space in the Shark to match the IOCDS/IODF.
IIRC, defining/assigning space was easy enough, but deleting/reassigning was difficult. HTH and good luck. -----Original Message----- From: IBM Mainframe Discussion List [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Mike Myers Sent: Thursday, June 16, 2011 10:20 AM To: [email protected] Subject: Shark configuration I'm looking for some help configuring some storage on an F20 model ESS box. We have just been given a substantial amount of disk space in one of our sharks. The storage had previously been configured as open system storage. Now we want to convert it to S/390 storage and use it for our z/OS system. When I view the storage allocation, I can see that the storage shows up as mostly unassigned (some fragments are unallocated). What I am trying to do is create a few LCUs to which I can assign the space as 3390-9 volumes. However, in the LCU table, only the 4 LCUs that address the S/390 storage presently in the box appear. No table entries appear for un-configured LCUs. I can't find any mechanism that permits me to add an LCU, even though the documentation says that I can have as many as 16 LCUs. Has anyone with experience with shark configuration point me in the right direction? Am I going to have to use the "batch configurator" to do this? If so, where do I find documentation and how do I access it?
