Authorization

Privilege Class: G

Purpose

Use STORE STATUS to store selected virtual machine data in certain low storage locations, simulating the hardware store status facility. These locations are permanently assigned locations in guest absolute storage.

The STATUS operand causes the following data to be stored in low storage at the guest absolute addresses shown:

Table 1. Non-z/Architecture mode guest
Address Length Content
Dec Hex
163 A3 1 Architectural-mode id (X'00')
212 D4 4 Extended save area address. See note below.
216 D8 8 CPU timer
224 E0 8 Clock comparator
256 100 8 Current PSW
264 108 4 Prefix register
288 120 64 Access registers 0 through 15
352 160 32 Floating-point registers 0, 2, 4, 6
384 180 64 General registers 0 through 15
448 1C0 64 Control registers 0 through 15
Note: The extended save area address is used if it is provided. When the extended save area is available, the virtual machine's floating-point registers 0 through 15 and floating-point control register are stored there.
Table 2. z/Architecture mode guest
Address Length Content
Dec Hex
0163 00A3 1 Architectural-mode id (X'01')
4608 1200 128 Floating-point registers 0 through 15
4736 1280 128 General registers 0 through 15
4864 1300 16 Current PSW
4888 1318 4 Prefix register
4892 131C 4 Floating-point control register
4900 1324 4 TOD programmable register
4904 1328 8 CPU timer
4913 1331 7 Clock comparator
4920 1338 8 Breaking-event-address register
4928 1340 64 Access registers 0 through 15
4992 1380 128 Control registers 0 through 15

Usage Notes

  1. The STORE STATUS command stores data in the logout area.
  2. The STORE STATUS command stores CPU timer and clock comparator values that may then be displayed on your console through the DISPLAY command. This procedure is one way to get timer information on your display.

Responses

Response 1:
Store complete
is issued when the command completes successfully.
