Description

PAGEFIX specifies the page fixing feature, indicative of which areas are to be fixed in storage.

PAGEFIX is not used under z/VM; it is used only under z/OS and z/VSE.

Valid settings of PAGEFIX are (options can be summed):

Timer PC requires KOMM to be pagefixed

Since the Timer PC disables interrupts but still needs to reference KOMM, the following error message informs you to pagefix KOMM. This prevents possible 0C4 and X'11' return codes (commonly known as Page Translation Exceptions):

M204.2447: KOMM MUST BE PAGE FIXED TO USE PCTIMER
