Error description

  • This APAR contains updates for the SMAPI VSWITCH query and
    SMCFGDM EXEC will be enhanced.
    .
     This APAR contains updates for two problems:
      1.  The EXEC which executes
          Virtual_Network_Vswitch_Query_Byte_Stats API was
          inadvertently omitted from the z/VM 7.1 GA build. This
          EXEC is now restored via this APAR.
      2.  The SMCFGDM EXEC has been enhanced. This EXEC is used to
          configure DirMaint so that DirMaint is in sync with SMAPI.
          The newly configured DirMaint is then ready to be used as
          the SMAPI directory manager. SMCFGDM EXEC will now include
          a recommendation for how many Dirmaint Datamove Machines
          ought to be defined based on the SMAPI configuration.

Problem conclusion

  • The following fixes are supplied with this APAR:
      1.  DMSSUVQI $EXEC which processes the
          Virtual_Network_Vswitch_Query_Byte_Stats API
          has been restored and added to the DMSBL493 $EXEC
          build list.
      2.  SMCFGDM $EXEC has been updated so that it now provides
          a recommendation for how many DirMaint Datamove machines
          should be defined based on the SMAPI configuration.
