All,
Having never applied service of any kind to z/VM, what would be a WAG
to apply say PSP or any hardware buckets.
Thanks,

Billy,
Applied RSU1002+PSP+z196 PTF's to 3 systems, tested in-house code, etc,
ready to go in 2 days. Yes, I have been doing z/VM for a few more years
than I care to admit.
READ and re-read all instructions, question everything, keep DETAILED
step by step notes(helps for next time), you say it's your first time -
MAKE DDR BACKUPS before starting, create a second level VM under VM to
practice on. Give yourself 2 weeks - start to finish. Maybe less IF you
can hide out some where away from daily interruptions..
Learn how to search the archives of this IBMVM list. The answers to
almost all of the issues/questions you encounter are out there somewhere.
Building a 2nd level system (VM under VM) is the best and safest way to
get it the hang of it, easy to start over if needed.
In keeping with the VM mascot ways, post away, we are just a bunch
cuddly bears here (dare I say old bears?) Ha..
Best Regards,
Doug
