Re: Can a VM machine ...
Not really. Supervisor state is virtualized for the CMS user. When an instruction requiring supervisor state is executed in a CMS machine, a privop occurs and CP is given control to simulate the

Re: Can a VM machine ...
When you run under VM, you are in a virtual machine and everything is virtualized. No one on this forum needs a lesson on that. Applications running under CMS are given control in supervisor state by

Re: Can a VM machine ...
To the best my knowledge, CMS always runs in supervisor state. But it does not run with key zero. Best regards,

Re: Can a VM machine ...
Hi, I thought only CP ran in supervisor state and everything else runs in problem state on the physical system. Thus Diag 8 in a virtual system can't get to Herculesn but only to CP. While CP diag 8

Re: Can a VM machine ...
Dave, How does this mod 10 work? I'm assuming you don't mean Diagnose 10. Isn't diagnose x'0010' to release pages? Bert.

Yep ... and your question was: :) You can easily write a callable interface for your backup program to switch to supervisor key and issue DIAG 8. With the hercules CP mod and the config option I

Hello Joe, Yes; but by CP (DMK) not aCMS program. I say this because diag 8 from a virtual system is for issuing CP command. Inside DMK/CP a diag 8 would go to Hercules. Bert

Re: Can a VM machine ...
Bob, Yes, it was my understanding a virtual machine can't talk to Hercules directly. What might be possible would be to add a new Diagnose instruction (say X'FFC' so as to not interfere with z/VM.

Gentles, That is why we have Hercules cp mod 10, the HCP command which allows a user ask CP to issue a DIAG 8 on the hardware it thinks it is running on. For many on here this will be Hercules, but if

Re: Can a VM machine ...
CMS (and other virtual machines) use Diagnose 8 to pass CP commands to CP for execution. Would those start going to Hercules instead? If so, that could cause some delightful explosions!! Bo Bolch

Re: Can a VM machine ...
Hello Joe, I can see how VM, itself, can talk to Hercule via Diag 8, but how would a guest OS or CMS program? Wouldn't a Diag 8 in a virtual machine go to VM as a CP command instead of to Hercules.
