Radoslaw, I'm not an EMC CE, but since it appears that the DS,QD,xxxx,RDC appears to be asking the device what it supports, this is the indicator that MIDAW is disabled on the hardware side, so you probably need to contact your EMC support folks.

Sent: Friday, February 01, 2008 8:17 AM To: [email protected] Subject: Two questions about MIDAW The following scenario: z9, z/OS 1.7 with up-to-date service. FICON connections. 1. What steps should be done to enable MIDAW on non-IBM storage? The box is EMC DMX3 with proper microcode level. AFAIK MIDAW support has to be enabled by EMC CE. I wonder about activities on host side. 2. z9, z/OS 1.7 (with service), Shark ESS 800 with Microcode 2.4.4.112.

Q2: Is the microcode level correct for MIDAW? Q3: If yes, what should be done to enable this function? Regards -- Radoslaw Skorupka Lodz, Poland -- BRE Bank SA ul.
