Chapter 8. The VM/370 Starter System Introduction The Starter System Progra. (DMKSSP) redefines the real configuration according
to the operator's specifications.
theDMKSAV .odule reads a copy of the Normally, VM/370 fro. disk CP nucleus into real storage and then calls DMKCPI to perfor. the initialization tasks

tape.When VM/310 is loaded fro. the
startersystem tape, the DMKSAV .odule
reads acopy of the starter system nucleus
into real storage and callsD!KSSP to give the operator the opportunity to redefine
the devices necessary to continue withsyste. generation. When D!KSSP is through
with its processing. it callsD!KCPI to
continue the initialization process.DMKSSP is an interactive program. The
operator must signal attention to define a
console at an address other than009 or 011. Then, the operator responds to
questions displayed at theterminal to
redefine the printer, punch, reader, tape
and disk devices.Chapter 8: The VM/370 Starter System 163
