z/VM paging problem

[Edward M. Martin]

Hello Everyone,         I appreciate everyone’s patience with me on this problem.         I have been getting the message HCPCLS174E Paging I/O error; IPL failed     whenever I IPL from a cuu.         The message has been explained very well but I am still trying to find out what happened. These volumes have not been formatted or touch for years per the old system person.             We have changed from the MP3000 with V=R/V=F/V=F on the three main VSE/ESA systems. TO    a Z890 with all V=V.  Plus we now have 2gig of Xstore defined to the z890.         I do have a question about CPFORMAT and the ICK03024I message below. Is the ICK3024I message correct or should there be a filler as these are suppose to be CPFORMATED?       CPVOL LIST UNIT(123) VERIFY(430RES)   ICK00700I DEVICE INFORMATION FOR 0123 IS CURRENTLY AS FOLLOWS:               PHYSICAL DEVICE = 3390                                             STORAGE CONTROLLER = 3990                                          STORAGE CONTROL DESCRIPTOR = E9                                    DEVICE DESCRIPTOR = 0A                                             ADDITIONAL DEVICE INFORMATION = 48001500                 RECORDS ICK00703I DEVICE IS OPERATED AS A MINIDISK                          ICK00091I 0123 NED=  3390.A34.EMC.05.000000001987             ICK091I   0123 NED=  3390.A34.EMC.05.000000001987             ICK03090I VOLUME SERIAL = 430RES                              ICK03024I DEVICE IS CURRENTLY FORMATTED WITHOUT FILLER ICK03000I CPVOL REPORT FOR 0123 FOLLOWS:                                                                                    ICK03021I 0123 IS FORMATTED FOR VM/XA|ESA MODE                                                                                        CYLINDER ALLOCATION CURRENTLY IS AS FOLLOWS:                  TYPE     START     END     TOTAL                              ----     -----     ---     -----                              PERM     0         0       1                                  DRCT     1         20      20                                 PERM     21        28      8                                  TDSK     29        78      50                                 SPOL     79        256     178                                PAGE     257       390     134                                PARM     391       435     45                                 PARM     436       480     45                                 PARM     481       525     45                              PERM     526       3338    2813                                                                              ICK00001I FUNCTION COMPLETED, HIGHEST CONDITION CODE WAS 0           15:45:07    07/24/06      Thanks to you all,   Ed Martin Aultman Health Foundation 330-588-4723 [EMAIL PROTECTED] ext. 40441
