Hi! Please forgive the question, but I don't carve up new volumes every day. When I do, they're typically FB, and I'm trying to learn more of the mainframe side. I'm hoping someone on here might have run into this on a DS8000 and can spot what's going on. I'm also working with IBM on it, but I also figure it's an interesting technical issue.
I'm trying to provision a new LCU and some volumes on a DS8000. First, the LCU: mklcu -qty 1 -id A0 -ss E000 -lcutype 3990-6 That works, and I can see the LCU. Now the volumes: mkckdvol -extpool P0 -cap 3339 -name CKD_P0_#h E000-E0B9 Then, I get a load of errors, like this: CMUN02282e mkckdvol: E000: Unable to create CKD logical volume: CKD volumes require a CKD logical subsystem I'm sensitive to the sentiment against "how-to" type questions, so please bear with me. I've read through a dozen manuals, RedBooks, and presentations. What I'm really after here is to understand the issue. It seems to be tripping up on the fact that the LCU ID, which has to match the CUADD, is different from the first two parts of the subsystem ID. Has anyone run into this before, or can spot the error of my ways? Thank you very much! -Ben ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to [email protected] with the message: INFO IBM-MAIN
