OS/VS1 v1.6.7 SYSGEN issue


 

I've been trying to perform a SYSGEN for OS/VS1 v1.6.7. However, I can't get past job g04-init-dasd-misc.jcl as it seems there are not enough 3350 DASD devices available in the starter system. I tried a to assign 014b from the WORK61 DASD volume but had the same issue with the PERM73 volume. Has anyone worked through this issue? Or am I doing something wrong? Any insights would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you,

Ron Lucas


 

Ron,

What "starter system" are you using?

OS/VS1 was meant for the lower end of the 370 family, and starter systems generally had a minimal configuration of devices (tapes, disk drives, etc.) anyway.

How many disks are you trying to initialize?

You should be able to just create the virtual disks and initialize them "in one go" by using the Hercules "dasdinit" command.

Hope that helps,

Mark S. Waterbury


 

Thanks Mark.

I was able to get the OS up and running as v1.6.0 and then install the COBOL, FORTRAN and PL1 compilers that I wanted. Next step is to add an additional WORK DASD.

Thanks again,

Ron
