Loading the cooperative memory management module

7.1 z/VM guest

If the cooperative memory management support has been compiled as a separate module, you configure Linux® on z/VM® through the sender= module parameter when you load the module with modprobe.

Figure 1. cooperative memory management module parameter syntax

1  modprobe  cmm
1!  sender=VMRMSVM
1?  sender=<user_ID>

where <user_ID> specifies the z/VM guest virtual machine that is permitted to send messages to the module through the special messages interface. The default z/VM user ID is VMRMSVM, which is the default for the VMRM service machine.

Lowercase characters are converted to uppercase.

Example

To load the cooperative memory management module and allow the z/VM guest virtual machine TESTID to send messages:

# modprobe cmm sender=TESTID
