I should post this to the Linux list also, but I'll start with the VM list.
On a VM system hosting Linux guests, I can think of one or two reasons why one might want to use EDEV instead of direct SAN connections. There are also some reasons why one would NOT want to. Can any of you think of reasons you would go one way or the other? Given a Linux guest on z/VM using SAN, should it go direct or go via EDEV? If direct, why? If EDEV, why? Thanks. I hope to add a slide to my SHARE pitch on this topic. -- R; <><
