We had VSE/ESA 2.3.2 running on z/VM 4.1 and z/VM 4.2 and VSE/ESA 2.5.1 under 
z/VM 4.2 on the MP3000 H30.  No problems.

When you say the guest is looping, is it the VSE supervisor or a VSE partition?
What does "now going into the VSE panels" (3) Operations (6) System Status (1) 
Display System Activity, tell you?  (i.e. all VSE systems have basic tools on 
them)

Also, to prevent a high priority, looping partition from locking everything 
below it out, change your "prty" command to use the "share" type.

i.e.
PRTY G=Z=D=M=N=BG=FA=F9=F7=F6=F5=F4=F8=L=O=P=F2,FB,F3,F1           
PRTY SHARE,Z=10,D=10,M=10,N=10,BG=50,FA=50,F9=50,F7=50,F6=50,F5=50 
PRTY SHARE,F4=50,G=100,L=10,P=50,O=20                              

All partitions will get some cpu cycles.  Really great when you are using IP 
functions as they won't time out.

Hi all...
This is a real shot in the dark,  but in case anyone else has bumped 
into it....

We have a VERY back level client (VSE 2.4 under VM 3.1) who is trying to 
move into the 21st century.   Their plan is to update VM to 4.4 (last 
one that will run on their MP3000), then to upgrade VSE to 2.6, then on 
to a zSeries, and more current VM and VSE releases...

They also have no tools on VM or VSE to see what is going on...

VM 4.4 IPLs fine and seems to run ok.   But when they bring up their VSE 
guests (with CICS), sooner or later one of the guests starts looping and 
has to be logged off.   Which guest loops and how long it takes to start 
looping varies...

Anyone tried to move VSE 2.4 to VM 4.4?

If not we'll probably have to try and trace it and track it that way...

Thanks for any suggestions...
Lee
