Module parameter

7.1 z/VM guest

You can load the monitor read support if it is compiled as separate module. You can also specify a DCSS name, if applicable.

About this task

Load the monitor read support module with modprobe to assure that any other required modules are also loaded. You need IUCV support if you want to use the monitor read support.
