If the 191 is only used at Linux boot, you can change the directory entry and 
then login to the VM userid running the Linux system and:

BEGIN (if you get a CP READ)
#CP DET 191
#CP LINK * 191 191 MR
#CP DISC

(assuming your LINEND char is #)

If you are actually using the disk during runtime, then it's a lot safer to 
bounce the guest.

Subject: Detaching A disk from z/Linux guest dynamically

Hi

I have a copy of the DASD volume where the A (191) disk resides for a specific 
z/Linux guest. I want to point the guest to the new copied volume from the one 
it is currently using without bringing the guest down. Is there a way to do 
this?

Thank You,
