O’Brien Vice President Consultant II, z/VM Engineering Technology Engineering & Operations Bank of America CA4-704-06-15, 2000 Clayton Rd, Concord, CA 94520 Dennis.L.O’br...@bankofamerica.com -----Original Message----- From: Linux on 390 Port [mailto:LINUX-390@VM.MARIST.EDU] On Behalf Of Keith Gooding Sent: Tuesday, October 16, 2018 13:08 To: LINUX-390@VM.MARIST.EDU Subject: Problems with upgrade to z/vm I attempted to post this to the ibmvm list but have had some problems subscribing to that list so I am hoping that someone here can help. I have used the “upgrade” path to upgrade from 6.3 to 6.4 and have started stage 2 using “instupgr stage2 (commit”. There were instructions to shut down non-essential VMs and unfirtunately I shut down the file pool server VMSYSP. instupgr now fails because it needs that fileserv. After some messing about I re-ipled z/vm and logged on to MIGMAINT again but it cannot start CMS because a saved segment is missing. The backout is to restore from the backup taken before stage2 (it is a flashcopy taken with DFDSS using CPVOLUME option which I understood to have been tested as part of DR but I found out that a different VM is used for DR. I have DDR backups from before stage1 which are over a week old so I would prefer to fix the problem if possible.
