Changing the default disk pool

The default disk pool is the default provider of disk resources for creating z/VM virtual servers and for templates.

Complete the following steps to change the default disk pool:

  1. If it is not started already, start the Virtual Server Deployment task for the z/VM System you want to work with.
  2. In the z/VM System resource tree, expand the top node. The top node represents the z/VM system.
  3. Click the z/VM Profile node below the top node. If your current access credentials are complete and valid, the z/VM Profile pane is displayed with the profile data. If your credentials are incomplete or no longer valid, follow the instructions on the screen to update you credentials before you continue with the next step.
  4. From the Disk Pool list, select the disk pool you want to be the default disk pool.
  5. Click Save.
