Did I miss something? mace -----Original Message----- From: The IBM z/VM Operating System [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of RPN01 Sent: Monday, June 25, 2007 11:04 AM To: IBMVM@LISTSERV.UARK.EDU Subject: Re: DASD second level Unless the Linux admin takes specific action to label the disk with the current label, it will be overwritten with the Linux volume name, and will then not be available the next time the userid is logged out and back in. Two courses of action: Either change the minidisk to exclude cylinder zero, making it begin on 001 and run for 3338, or have the Linux admin use the current label when he formats the disk (I don't remember seeing this as an option in the install process, but I wasn't looking for it, either), or let him format the disk, then discover the new label, and change all your references to match it. Note that it may not be unique if you have several Linux guests using the same virtual disk addresses. But at least you're in control of what addresses you present to the Linux guest... Option one is the simplest and most reliable, if you intend to run Linux as a guest only, and never try to boot it in a bare LPAR. You lose a cylinder per disk, but you keep control over the volumes. -- .~. Robert P.
