of course; z/VM 5.3.0 would not be GA if not.

You need at least spool to get started: CP will page into spool when it
doesn't find free PAGE areas, so you could leave out 530PAG
to get started.  But, as has been said often enoufgh: to get good
performance later, you'll need some page packs anyhow.

Hi Folks,

I'm preparing to install z/VM 5.3 and notice the starter system now
needs 530SPL and 530PAG.  Has anybody completed installation of z/VM 5.3
from the starter system tapes (3390-3)?  Is there ANY spool/page on
530RES or one of the 530W0x volumes?  I'd rather not have to dedicate
two entire volumes to spool/page just to get the starter system
up........

-TIA
