I have a colleague whose background is MVS and hardware. She is having trouble 
trying to do the following:


*       Have all IOCP decks controlled from MVS
*       MVS will create the production IODF
*       MVS will write the iocds file into the proper SE slot on the MVS 
machines
*       On the machines that only have VM, no z/OS, have the VM lpar to do the 
Dynamic activation without having to POR.

She thinks the gist of the process is

*       use the Export command on the z/OS HCD using the production IODF. This 
should contain the hardware token.
*       FTP the file to CBDSACT user id under VM.
*       Import the file using the CBDIODSP

At this point, she hits a snag because the import expects a reader file. Is 
that solved simply by SPOOL PUN * followed by PUN fn ft fm (NOH or is some 
other format required?

There is one final problem, "I still need to know how to get VM to do the 
dynamic activations using the CBDSACT rexx utility using the exported file from 
MVS."



TIA,
Richard Schuh
