If the server creates a system LX, how does the client locate it? Of those ways, which is easiest?

For a space-switch PC when the new SASN is set to the old PASN, the target routine can use MVCS or a move with ALET=1 to move data to the secondary space. What in the book contradicts this? By the way, I disagree with Shmuel about "The easy way is to be a subsystem". The client needs to know what PC to issue. This does not require a subsystem in order to "know". When the LX is not a system LX, the client will need to connect to the server's LX. That in and of itself requires authorization, sometimes/often provided by the server having defined a system LX for that purpose. <snip> Are You saying that each accessing address space would provide a unique EAX. <snip> Definitely not. An "accessing address space" does not "provide" an EAX. That is not how EAX's are used.
