Hello all,
any news about this subject?
I'm trying... but even if I am able too boot using "ipl zvm.ins", I don't know
how to "mount" the ramdisk.
I tried with creating a TDF file, but the ipl stops at the beginning.
Here is my conf file:
ARCHMODE ESAME
OSTAILOR VM
CPUSERIAL 000612
CPUMODEL 3090
MAINSIZE 512
ECPSVM yes
PGMPRDOS licensed
0000 SYSG
0180 3420 zvm.tdf
371a 3390 pg3711
371b 3390 sp3711
Thanks in advance,
Fausto

Fausto,
at least there was a note that zvm eval version requires 3gb, so your
512 mainsize will not work.
I do not know what is on the download disk image in the way of files,
but I suspect you will have to extract the zvm.tdf, pg3711, and sp3711
files somewhere that hercules can access them. Is that what you are
referring to when you mention "mount" ramdisk?

Jim,
I created the tdf and disk files.
All of them are in the same directory.
My tdf is:
@TDF
c:\zvm\zvm.nucleus FIXED 1024
TM
c:\\zvm\zvm.ramdisk FIXED 1024
TM
TM
EOT
when I try to ipl, I have this...
ipl ZVM.ins
HHCCP002I CPU0000 thread started: tid=00001CFC, pid=4692, priority=15
HHCTT002I Timer thread started: tid=00001D2C, pid=4692, priority=0
HHCCP003I CPU0000 architecture mode z/Arch

Do you think this is related to the memory issue?

You're over-thinking it. You don't need the TDF. I'm told that all you need
to do is place ZVM.* and ZVMBOOT.* in the same directory, then do "ipl
zvm.ins". Make sure you have LOADPARM CONSSYSG and MAINSIZE 3072 (minimum),
as well as a definition for the SYSG device and any others ou might want
(such as DASD or 3270).

Jay,
you're absolutely right, that does the trick - at least for me.
Booting took some minutes; afterwards you can do a force drain and set the
clock.
Only some keyboard issues now with my X session from MacOSX to the SYSG console
on the server where hercules is running (DELL R100 4GB, dual XEON, SLES10 64
BIT)
Lets see what happens next....
@Fausto,
please let us know if this is working for you as well.
Thank you.

Hello,
I have Windows VISTA Business 32-bit, on a DELL XPS M1530, with 4 GB RAM, but I
cannot start hercules with 3GB of MAINSIZE... "Cannot obtain 3000MB of main
storage: Not enough space".
So I have to switch to another system.
As soos as I can do it, I'll let you know if it's working.
thanks a lot,

Change your Vista Paging file size to the maximum it will allow, or up to
6GB.
Wasn't there some relocating tricks you can also use?

You can never get 3Gb of Mainframe RAM allocated on a 32bit Windows system.
The most you can ever hope is a 3GB address space for Hercules and to get
that you would need to tweak the system. For vista its documented here:-
http://www.prophotowiki.com/w/index.php/IncreaseUserVa
and for XP here
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms791558.aspx
However that depends on the program being linked with the
"/LARGEADDRESSAWARE"
and having never built it I am not sure it is.

.ins files contain a file name and a load point. If the load point in
the .ins file plus the file size is less than 3G, a smaller memory size
might be feasible. That could get you past the Hercules initialization
error for 3G, allowing the ipl to occur with confidence that all of the
files in the .ins will load. I think I remember 2047M (2G minus 1M) as
the max for a Windows 32-bit system for Hercules main storage. Not
having a Windows box, you would have to try that.
If you get the wait state code reported by others, you could run an
instruction trace to see if you are simply running out of memory or
there is a hard coded test some place. When I was trying to get
OpenSolaris to IPL I had to do a bunch of this with some patches to get
it to work. YMMV of course for VM.
Just some ideas you might want to explore one step at a time.
