Subject: Re: [IBMVM] DASD cylinders
Back in the "Good Old Days" with RTM, I had a modification that would
identify the different
3390 models on the device screen, with '3393' for a model 3, '3399' for a
model 9, '339M' for
a model 27, and '339X' for everything else (which at the time the three
models were all we
had.) With PTK we can't do that, unfortunately, and with all the changes
they've put into
CP, it would take a big-time rewrite of RTM to make it work past zVM
5.1.0.
I agree with Marcy in that it would be very nice to be able to have some
way of knowing
which model 3390 you are looking at. Even being able to have a customized
screen that
would read a table of addresses and matching in the correct device type
would be useful.

Re: DASD cylinders
That's what I think too. Mod 27 and Mod 54 don't exist. I just read
the ds8000 doc, you can choose 3390 Standard Mod 3, 3390 Standard Mod 9,
or 3390 Custom Volume.
Velocity, if you are listening, question, any way of seeing the cyl
counts in any of the screens for "custom" volumes?

3390 model 1, 3 and 9 were real devices that were the same except for
the number of cylinders. After RAID came along everyone stopped making
real devices. Model 27 and 54 never existed. They were emulated model
9's with more cylinders.
