Hi Dave,
The SWAPGEN creates the VDISK and the zLinux does accept the disk. But
swap is not activated on the disk. To activate the swap I have to issue
a mkswap before swapon. And after booting the guest it must be done again.
I don't know if it is a problem with swapgen, with linux or some fstab
issue. So before troubleshouting, I want to replace the current swapgen
with the newest one and then test to see if it helps.
I noticed that the vdisk in linux is reported by /dev/dasdk and a
partition on /dev/dask1. But from the docs I understand that the disk in
FBA should be used as /dev/dasdk and not dasdk1.
Quite strange, we already have some linux images with a vdisk swap and
nobody has complained about the swapdisk.
Thanks for the swapgen file. Tomorrow I'll test it with this one.
Regards, Berry.

Hello List,
The past day I have tried to get the new version of SWAPGEN into my
VM but
no success so far. I have tried every way I can do a filetransfer but
every time I end up in a file I can't use on VM. Can anyone send me the
VMARC-ed version of the current SWAPGEN so I can continue? I do have
the
old version here but there seemds to be a problem with my VDISK swap so
I'd like to try the newer version. (TIA)
What sort of problems are you having with SWAPGEN?
