I need some help. 

We are replacing the IBM TS7740 VTS/ATL with the Luminex hardware.  The hardware is installed and I can use TAPELOAD and TMOUNT, Luminex utilities, to mount volumes on both zVSE and zVM.  I have started to setup EPIC but the zVSE guest just will not contact the Luminex hardware.

I think the issues lays with the fact we have 7 zVSE guests machines and the Luminex system group have never encountered a like ours.

I have a separate tape pool for each guest.

***********************************************************************

TAPOLA TSIDPOL (A,P00000,P09999,VMSYSVTS), P=A - PRODVSE +

(F,A00031,A00059,VMSYSATL),TAPE=YES

TAPOL1 TSIDPOL (1,Z10000,Z10999,LUMINEX1),TAPE=YES P=1 - DEV1VSE

TAPOL2 TSIDPOL (2,Z20000,Z20999,LUMINEX2),TAPE=YES P=2 - DEV2VSE

TAPOL3 TSIDPOL (3,Z30000,Z30999,LUMINEX3),TAPE=YES P=3 - DEV3VSE

TAPOL4 TSIDPOL (4,Z40000,Z40999,LUMINEX4),TAPE=YES P=4 - DEVTVSE

TAPOL5 TSIDPOL (5,Z50000,Z50999,LUMINEX5),TAPE=YES P=5 - DEVIVSE

TAPOL6 TSIDPOL (6,Z60000,Z60999,LUMINEX6),TAPE=YES P=6 - ZVSEVSE

***********************************************************************

The ERD ADDs have a separate ACLNAME for each.

ADD UCB=610,DEV=3490,FEAT=E,ACLNAME=LUMINEX1,ACLVEN=L,ACLNUM=2

.

.

ADD UCB=620,DEV=3490,FEAT=E,ACLNAME=LUMINEX2,ACLVEN=L,ACLNUM=2

.

.

ADD UCB=630,DEV=3490,FEAT=E,ACLNAME=LUMINEX3,ACLVEN=L,ACLNUM=2

.

.

ADD UCB=640,DEV=3490,FEAT=E,ACLNAME=LUMINEX4,ACLVEN=L,ACLNUM=2

.

.

ADD UCB=650,DEV=3490,FEAT=E,ACLNAME=LUMINEX5,ACLVEN=L,ACLNUM=2

.

.

ADD UCB=660,DEV=3490,FEAT=E,ACLNAME=LUMINEX6,ACLVEN=L,ACLNUM=2

.

.

Plus all the necessary EPIC options.


Is anyone running anything similar that they would share?

Thanks, Andy for getting back.  Shortly after sending the question I found my issue and I now have it working.
Isn't that the way it always happens?

Thanks again,

John

Check list

 

1 – IOCP has Luminex CUU address defined.

2 – I guess due new versions of zVSE isn´t necessary to define them in ADD asyproc statemets.

3 – If you runs under zVM make sure CUU´s are attached to zVSE system

4 – Use AR Command VOLUME to check if they are available to zVSE and DVCDN/DVCUP commands.

5 – If all above is ok, well problem could be really with Epic definitions.

6 – Keep in mind that Luminex virtual drives are defined as 3490/3490E or 3590 for Operating Systems, so do all you need to do if you install a real 3490 or 3590
