Flash Express is dead end.
z14 and z15 has no Flash Express. Both have Virtual Flash Express, which is part of regular RAM assigned to this role. It is paid feature, IMHO it is much more efficient to buy this memory as central memory and have much less paging. Note, VFM is cut from same memory limit, so it decreases limit of memory. Of course this is a problem for those who has rich memory configuration.

On the z13 and z14 generations it was called Flash Express and connected using 
the PCIie interface. On the z15 generation it's even closer to the processor 
now.

Thanks, Mark. I didn't know SCM was internal on the T02. I looked up SCM and 
the init and tuning guide (for 2.1) said it was part of auxiliary storage which 
in my mind has always been on external boxes.

SCM is internal to the z15-T02 processor. Someone was definitely using it up. 
Plenty of these messages in the system log.

I know this is a long shot but did you check your storage array to make sure 
there wasn't a hiccup in it that momentarily disabled the SCM?

I looked last night. Didn't see any IRA messages that indicated who's consuming 
page space. We're 99.9% SCM for paging, just one small local page dataset for 
VIO. I'm conjecturing that that message isn't being issued with SCM. I'll 
double check the log though.

Mark, if you still have access to the SYSLOG for the lpar you could try to look 
for message IRA220I. The message will list the who was using up the AUX slots. 
The message can be displayed related to message IRA201E.
Thanks..

Someone used up the entire 128GB of SCM we've assigned to paging on one of our 
systems last night. AutoIPL took a SAD and then reipled, so the recovery went 
as well as can be expected. I'm not well versed in IPCS and so I was wondering 
if someone could give me hints on how to ascertain who did the deed.
