Resource Requirements for Building and Managing Saved Segments

Saved segment build and management tasks are normally done using the MAINTvrm virtual machine. If you plan to use some other user ID, it must have:
  • Access to the VMSES/E Software Inventory disks: MAINTvrm 51D and PMAINT 41D.
  • Access to the VMSES/E code on MAINTvrm 5E5.
  • The ability to link and access the minidisks and SFS directories specified in the saved segment product parameter file, the product-level product parameter file, and the saved segment definitions in the SEGDATA file. Minidisks must already be linked if you are not using the LINK build list option.
  • The ability to get write access to the build target disk specified in the saved segment product parameter file.
  • CP authority to issue the DEFSEG, QUERY NSS, PURGE NSS, and SAVESEG commands.
  • A virtual machine with enough storage to contain the saved segment with the highest storage range and the additional storage used by CMS.
  • A NAMESAVE directory control statement entry for each restricted saved segment.
  • A read/write A-disk.
