Richard, It should not be that complicated. Issue the following to see if it applies to your system - HELP CPSET DEVICES - and check if you have the proper features statement(s) set. You should be able to issue - SET ACCEPTED rdev-rdev. HITACHI DATA SYSTEMS Raymond E. Noal Senior Technical Engineer Office: (408) 970 - 7978 ________________________________
From: The IBM z/VM Operating System [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Schuh, Richard Sent: Monday, June 30, 2008 3:19 PM To: [email protected] Subject: Making Devices Available We have some DASD devices that were, until a few minutes ago, in the Devices_NotAccepted list. I have made some of them accepted, both in the SYSTEM CONFIG and by command. Now, I am confronted with a DEFINE DEVICE command that, from the HELP files is as clear as murky water to me (the problem may well be between my ears). Is it as simple as "DEFINE DEVICE F6EF-F6F7 UNITADD EF CUNUMBER nnnn DASD" (nnnn to be filled in when someone supplies the value from the IOCP - I do not have ready access)? Assuming that I get them defined, is all that is left varying them online? They will initially be attached to the user who is going to prepare them for use, so there will be no ATTACH to SYSTEM.
