Ed, I have FLOWASM running here in z/VSE, but can not find the ASMA435 error-message. I am sure it affects VSE users as well and hence will prepare a VSE version and publish it the usual way (or did I send a VSE version to you?*) What do I need out of the XMI package to prepare the VSE

Re: Change how LE allocates storage (subpool,key)

2023-07-15 Thread Martin Trübner
I believe "Storage-protection override" is the hardware facility it is! and VSE as well as z/OS set the bit in CR0 to activate it (all the time without asking for any need). So Key 9 is the storage key everyone (regardless of key) can modify as opposed to PSW-key zero which allows to modify

Johnny, you are watching a very normal behavior. There is no unlimited supply of anything. Once the OP-sys is full (whatever resource you look at) the next level will have queues that build up. And maintaining these queues takes time. Very simple model: Once your I/O rate is higher than
