Ensure that you have run the aws_bashrc command while logged on as that user, and from that user's home directory.

The following messages occur during startup:

AWSECH004S Unable to define 
      RAS/FEDC memory, RC=-3.

This message is seen with many awsckd definitions.

The Linux® kernel setting SHMMNI, which sets the system-wide maximum number of shared memory segments, is probably too low. The default is 4096.

Try increasing this setting by adding kernel.shmmni = 8192 to /etc/sysctl.conf and activate it using the command sysctl -p.

The following message occurs when ipling z/VM® 6.2

Older z/VM V6R2 maintenance levels may not work with zPDT® Version 1 Release 6. Either migrate to z/VM V6R3 or ensure PTF VM65007 is applied to your z/VM V6R2 system.
