NAME : HCPVPABK DESCRIPTION: Virtual Page Array (Guest Relocation) DSECT : VPABK FUNCTION : This control block is used during Live Guest Relocation to accumulate a set of guest pages to be sent from the source system to the destination system. It is tightly coupled to the HCPGSBBK. ocated by - On the source system: this block is contained within the HCPGSBBK (see GSBVPA). - On the destination system: located by the first fragment received (host logical address). CREATED BY : - On the source system: Created as part of the GSBBK. - On the destination system: Received as the first fragment from ISFC and mapped in situ. DELETED BY : - On the source system: Deleted as part of the GSBBK. - On the destination system: 1) The receive loop (HCPRLBRC) when the VPABK is for state changes and/or updated resident/xstore pages. (VPAFLAG.VPAPWM is on.) 2) The DASD handler (HCPDOPMW) when the VPABK is for updated DASD pages. (VPAFLAG.VPAPWM is off.) REFERENCES : HCPRLMSG COPY SERIALIZED : Only one task should have the address of a particular VPABK. RELOCATION CONSIDERATIONS : None otes - The entire VPABK is transmitted from the source system to the destination system. - The VPABK is broken into two main parts. See each part for more information. - Header information - VPARRAY: Virtual Page Array. - Sample HCPUSING HCPUSING GSBBK,R7 Address GSBBK. HCPUSING VPABK,GSBVPA,GSBBK Address VPABK. USING RLMSG,VPAMSG Address RLMSG. t* HCPUSING RLMSG,VPAMSG,VPABK Address RLMSG. - HCPUSING can not be used for the RLMSG at this time, see 2T0K184.
