The temporary disk is too small to hold the starter system
files.
This problem is caused by skipping the steps that erase the VMARC and DISKIMG files
following each restore step.
To solve this problem, backtrack your steps in the install process and verify that you have
erased the temporary files that you have already restored to the minidisks owned by
NOVSTART.
If you have not skipped a step, report a problem as described in "How to Report Prob-
lems With the Starter System" on page 36
The FTP session is prompting for a write password.
This problem is usually indicated by receiving messages similar to the following:
ftp> cd novstart.F00
250-Working directory is NOVSTART F00 (ReadOnly)
250 for write access, send 'ACCT minidisk-mult-password'
Figure 41. Attempting to Transfer Files with FTP to an Accessed Minidisk
The problem results from CMS not permitting multiple virtual machines to have a write
link to the same minidisk at the same time (and thus to cause data corruption). The VM
FTP server runs in a different virtual machine, and thus triggers this problem if the
NOVSTART userid is logged on, or if you have the desired disk linked read/write from
another userid.,
To solve this problem, exit the FTP client and ensure that the NOVSTART userid is not
logged on, and that you do not have the minidisk accessed or linked from your userid.
The CMS QUERY USERID NOVSTART command will show you if the NOVSTART userid
is logged on. The QUERY VIRTUAL DISK command will show you what minidisks you
have linked at the time of execution.
If the NOVSTART id is logged on, log it off. If you have the disk linked, use the DETACH
command with the address shown to detach it from your userid.
If you still have problems, report a problem as described in "How to Report Problems
With the Starter System" on page 36
