The problem that I'm having is that we use the 9490s for the esoterics as well. It has been this way for the longest time and I would hate to be the one to change it and then the SILO no longer works.
On Monday, the STK support guy will have an answer to those missing modules. I was just hoping that someone on the list had the 4 modules I'm looking for. I'll let everyone know the outcome...

Way back when, I was a user of the STK UIMs so that I could gen the 9490s as device type 9490. But, after some z/OS (or perhaps OS/390, it was some time ago) change came along, and the STK UIMs didn't work correctly anymore, I changed to using the standard IBM UIMs - and have not looked back since. If you do decide to go down the path of installing the STK 9490 UIMs into z/OS (the modules must go into SYS1.NUCLEUS, by the way), please post back your results as I'd be curious to hear if STK ever fixed their UIMs for the problem we hit several years ago. There is one side effect to using the IBM 3490 UIM for the 9490 device. The IBM UIM for 3490 expects the Control unit to have 16 devices behind it. The STK UIM 9490 allows for what the STK device actually does - one control unit / one device. As a result, when you generate the production IODF using the IBM 3490 UIM, HCD issues a warning message. CBDG448I Following 8 control units of type 3490 have less devices attached than the minimum number of 16 unit addresses: 0230, 0231, 0232, 0233, 0234, 0235, 0236, 0237 This message appears, and the job I run to create a production IODF ends RC=4. Everything works correctly - I believe this is how nearly every STK 9490 user does this. Here's definitions for eight 9490 devices, with device numbers 230-237: CNTLUNIT CUNUMBR=0230,PATH=(1C,29),UNITADD=((00,016)), * LINK=(B6,B6),UNIT=3490 CNTLUNIT CUNUMBR=0231,PATH=(1C,29),UNITADD=((00,016)), * LINK=(BA,BA),UNIT=3490 CNTLUNIT CUNUMBR=0232,PATH=(1C,29),UNITADD=((00,016)), * LINK=(BD,BD),UNIT=3490 CNTLUNIT CUNUMBR=0233,PATH=(1C,29),UNITADD=((00,016)), * LINK=(C1,C1),UNIT=3490 CNTLUNIT CUNUMBR=0234,PATH=(36,43),UNITADD=((00,016)), * LINK=(B8,B8),UNIT=3490 CNTLUNIT CUNUMBR=0235,PATH=(36,43),UNITADD=((00,016)), * LINK=(BE,BE),UNIT=3490 CNTLUNIT CUNUMBR=0236,PATH=(36,43),UNITADD=((00,016)), * LINK=(C1,C1),UNIT=3490 CNTLUNIT CUNUMBR=0237,PATH=(36,43),UNITADD=((00,016)), * LINK=(C4,C4),UNIT=3490 IODEVICE ADDRESS=230,UNITADD=00,CUNUMBR=(0230),STADET=Y, * UNIT=3490 IODEVICE ADDRESS=231,UNITADD=00,CUNUMBR=(0231),STADET=Y, * UNIT=3490 IODEVICE ADDRESS=232,UNITADD=00,CUNUMBR=(0232),STADET=Y, * UNIT=3490 IODEVICE ADDRESS=233,UNITADD=00,CUNUMBR=(0233),STADET=Y, * UNIT=3490 IODEVICE ADDRESS=234,UNITADD=00,CUNUMBR=(0234),STADET=Y, * UNIT=3490 IODEVICE ADDRESS=235,UNITADD=00,CUNUMBR=(0235),STADET=Y, * UNIT=3490 IODEVICE ADDRESS=236,UNITADD=00,CUNUMBR=(0236),STADET=Y, * UNIT=3490 IODEVICE ADDRESS=237,UNITADD=00,CUNUMBR=(0237),STADET=Y, * UNIT=3490 Brian On Fri, 16 Nov 2007 17:43:12 +0000, Roy Hewitt wrote: >George, > >Yes you could define them as 9490, and as you have discovered you will >need to install various modules to install the HCD UIMs, as HCD does not >understand '9490' > >However, there is little point in doing this as you can just as easily >define them with Control Unit 3490 and Device Type 3490.
