Hello,
We shutdown our Linux instances once a week to get clean volume backups.
They are started back up via a REXX exec which simply issues:
'XAUTOLOG LINUX001'
sleep 30 sec
'XAUTOLOG LINUX002'
sleep 30 sec
'XAUTOLOG LINUX003'
At least 1 of the 3 Linuxes will hang during startup, usually the
DB2/UDB instance. To resolve the problem, I log on to a 3270 as the
"hung" user, log off, then log on again. The IPL proceeds normally when
performed via a connected terminal. The following are the last messages
in the spooled console log during the "hang". It seems to hang during
normal DASD setup. There are many more volumes left to verify at this
point:

I believe, but I'm not sure, that the problem began when we added a 2nd
IFL to zVM and defined a second virtual CP to these 3 machines.
Has anyone experienced this?
(System versions are zVM 4.2, SuSE 7-2.4.7 Kernel)
Thanks in advance,
