Peter,
I just set up a pregenned RL02 based RSX11M+ and took a look at the DD
driver. It is a vectored driver and needs to have the /VEC switch to tell it
not to use the default RSX11M.STB but instead use RSXVEC.STB
I was able to load the DDDRV with:
>LOA DD:/VEC/PAR=GEN/HIGH
The /PAR=GEN overrides trying to put the driver in DRVPAR that won’t have room
for it unless you reVMR
The /HIGH puts the driver at highest available memory in GEN to avoid
fragmenting the memory in GEN
Best,
Mark
