You had an invalid memory reference with a segment other than the
kernel segment i.e., not seg 0. Did you get a dump?
If present, it's benefitial to look at the SYSDUMP_SYMP error log
entry which contains a stack traceback.
If you got a dump use crash to look at it.

Data Storage Interrupt implies that the system tried to store to a bogus
memory location. This can happen due to referencing a bogus pointer,
stepping on someone else's kernel memory, trying to access memory that's
paged out when you have interrupts disabled, etc...

This happened twice, at 2 separate jobs to me. The first one was due to
outdated microcode on a SCSI adapter. The 2nd was due to a corrupt filesystem.
What you'll need to do is contact ibm, they'll run you through creating
the dump file, and then you send that dump file to ibm for diagnoses.
I think the SYSVMM error is a pretty generic error and can point to
a lot of things.
