Well..... You need to do the ACTIOCDS so that the next time you perform a POR the system will use an IOCDS that matches your new IODF. ACTIOCDS does not update the HSA on the system. It tells the system which IOCDS to use for POR. To make the HSA be in sync with the software on all MVS LPARs, you need to do a HW and SW activate on one LPAR and a SW only activate on the other LPARs. -- Tom Marchant ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to [email protected] with the message: GET IBM-MAIN INFO Search the archives at http://bama.ua.edu/archives/ibm-main.html
