Agree. When repurposing aspects in HCD, activates detail the deletes then additions of those aspects. You indicate the activates were successful. Were they 100%?
Still suspicious of the cabling--FICON INCOMPLETE. Check end to end. At the HMC...channel not in service mode, etc. At the tape drive...is there flashing light, etc. Regards, Kevin ________________________________________ From: IBM Mainframe Discussion List [[email protected]] on behalf of Cobe Xu [[email protected]] Sent: Thursday, October 02, 2014 6:23 PM To: [email protected] Subject: Re: HCD Question Hi all, Yes, the cables physically changed connect from DASD box to Tape controller.
