All, As I've mentioned in the IBMVM mailing list (but not here), I'm working on a combination NSS and DCSS rescue system. Initially, I defined it as starting and ending just under the 2G memory address because that seemed like a reasonable place. It turns out I needed to have it end below the 2047M address so that the DCSSBKUP and DCSSRSAV CMS tools could be used.
So, I defined a _new_ DCSS using the same name (RESCROOT) so that I could populate it and save it at the necessary virtual storage address. What I found was that there was no way to tell Linux to use the new one versus the existing one at the too-high virtual storage address. At least I couldn't find a way around that. I hated having to purge the DCSS before retrying because that meant the rescue system was unusable (to anyone who wasn't already using it) until I could get the new one re-saved. Is there some z/VM or Linux incantation (or combination of those two) that will let me create and populate the new one without first purging the old one?
