Hello!
So its been added to the basic system regarding the 6 Pack series? I
know there's a Waterloo tape some place for the basic system and of
course the dreaded additional pack tape that we know how to install
but I confess I do not know how.
pi@raspberrypi:~ $ ls /media/memory0/h390/*.aws.*
/media/memory0/h390/base-source.aws.bz2
/media/memory0/h390/CPR6L0.ddr.aws.bz2
/media/memory0/h390/ptf-616.aws.bz2
/media/memory0/h390/starter-3330.aws.bz2
/media/memory0/h390/VMREL6.ddr.aws.bz2
For example up there is the base-source.aws.bz2 one, and then the CP
tape also packaged as an AWS one and compressed using Bzip2 and that
PTF tape, and the crazy one is marked starter-3330.aws.bz2. That's the
one that's got me a trifle peeved.
I understand making use of the two named as the system ones, as they
were restored a while back, I have kept complete decks or rather drive
images.
So are the Waterloo things on those two ones, I've not restored? And
how would I go about bringing the starter one into the Bob set I use.
Of course I could go ahead and bring up next time the current but not
Beta six pack.

Its an add-on so it is only in the "n--packs" The source is on the Waterloo tape. It may need tweaking as it was originally written on sepp/bsepp.

Hello!
It does? Then why did I get this from a DIAL CPWATCH command string on
the original one, DIAL CPWATCH DMKDIA045E CPWATCH NOT LOGGED ON
IND from the console not the 3270 shows what it is doing, CPWATCH from
the same place does not.
Does this mean it's a missing entry on the original Bob kit? This will perfectly
be obvious to everyone except the individual reading this out loud to a crowd
of Yeti. (Including one who smokes a brand of smoking tobacco that's older
than most of us.)

CPWATCH reports paging rate.

Adrian,
In my experience, I doubt you are doing all that much paging. First off, the
VM/370 CP IND command doesn't show paging stats like it did in later
releases, so it is difficult to know how much you are paging.
If you are a single user VM/370 system, running 16MB real, even if you had
a 16MB user virtual machine, you would have to go some to cause much
paging beyond a very light amount. If you had several 16MB user machines
running simultaneously with large active working sets, then maybe you could
get the paging rate up to 5-10 pages per second. With Hercules caching, it
just isn't a problem.
Regards,
Bob
