This sounds like xCAT does not have authorization to the z/VM SMAPI 
servers. xCAT is going to issue a Image_Volume_Space_Define_DM SMAPI call.

What release of z/VM  and xCAT are you running?

In the SFS directory:  VMSYS:VSMWORK1.
There is a file called VSMWORK1 AUTHLIST

Is the z/VM userid of your xCAT zhcp listed in there? If not, duplicate 
the line for MAINT and change it  to ZHCP. Be careful to keep the "ALL" 
keywords in the same columns as the others.

Subject:        [xcat-user] How to add a disk to a pool ?



Hi All,
 
First post from a newbie with xCAT …
We have installed xCat on a System Z.
I want to provision a node, but when I try to add a disk, there is no POOL 
available.
 
How can I add a disk to a pool ?
 
I tried the following from comman-line: chhypervisor xcatvm --adddisk2pool 
5 XCTB5B POOL1
But received this error:
Error: xcatvm: Defining space on DASD volume to be allocated by directory 
manager... Failed
xcatvm:   Return Code: -108
xcatvm:   Description: Socket processing error
 
Any help/advise would be greatly appreciated.
 
Thanks,
CL
