NAME : LGRMSTBK DESCRIPTION: Relocation mapping for HCPMSTBK DSECT : $MSTBK FUNCTION : LGRMSTBK describes those fields of the MSTBK that will be migrated to the destination system during guest relocation. LOCATED BY : This is a mapping of the RDODATA area within the RDOBK during guest relocation. RELOCATION CONSIDERATIONS : This control block is used during live guest relocation. It is used to relocate a control block defined in a corresponding HCP COPY file. Any fields or bits defined in HCPMSTBK which are required on the destination system must be defined here, and code must be added to migrate the field or bit during a relocation.

The decoding routine(s) on the destination system will be aware of the context for the incoming MSTBK, and will therefore be able to set flags and other data as required. Bit map: Contains the MSTBK flags that are subject to relocation. These bits are defined sequentially, regardless of how they are defined in HCPMSTBK. This yields a consistent mapping that ensures compatibility when a guest is relocated between systems at differing service levels. Names in the comments column indicate the control block byte which contains the flag. This name is subject to change if the flag definition changes. ====> NEVER change bits which already exist here. ====> NEVER change the order of bits in this section. ====> ALWAYS add new bits at the end of this section, together with new flag bytes as required. 0008 8 Signed 2 $MST_BITS (0) Bit map area 00000000 $MST_BLEN *-$MST_BITS Length of bit map area Data: Contains all HCPMSTBK data that is subject to relocation, except for flag bits, which are handled separately.
