How can we get the job to run and resolve message SYBVMT080E ?

 

Environment:  

Running VMIMAGE backup on z/VM 6.3.0. 

Answer: 

Try increasing HiDRO's OPCORE which is the virtual storage limit per HiDRO task. 

To do so, logon to HiDRO

Select PF5 - Set Defaults and Tape Pools

Select PF4 - Set Defaults

Check OPCORE

4194304 (or 4M) is the default

Increase to 5242880 (or 5M)

Make change and PF2 twice to save

 

Additional Information:

Also make sure the HiDRO server has a minimum of 128M of virtual storage.
