I've been following the LVM thread and am in the process of attempting to get it to work. I have 3 volumes I want to add to my Linux instance but when I reboot, they aren't there. I've done the following: 1) updated /etc/modules.conf alias eth0 qeth options dasd_mod dasd=201-207
2) updated /etc/zipl.conf [defaultboot] default=linux target=/boot/ [linux] image=/boot/vmlinuz-2.4.21-1.1931.2.399.ent ramdisk=/boot/initrd-2.4.21-1.1931.2.399.ent.img parameters="root=/dev/md0 dasd=201-207" 3) issue: echo "add device range=205-207 " >> /proc/dasd/devices 0201(ECKD) at ( 94: 0) is dasda : active at blocksize: 4096, 36000 blocks, 140 MB 0202(ECKD) at ( 94: 4) is dasdb : active at blocksize: 4096, 72000 blocks, 281 MB 0203(ECKD) at ( 94: 8) is dasdc : active at blocksize: 4096, 600840 blocks, 2347 MB 0204(ECKD) at ( 94: 12) is dasdd : active at blocksize: 4096, 600840 blocks, 2347 MB 0205(ECKD) at ( 94: 16) is dasde : active at blocksize: 4096, 200340 blocks, 782 MB 0206(ECKD) at ( 94: 20) is dasdf : active at blocksize: 4096, 200340 blocks, 782 MB 0207(ECKD) at ( 94: 24) is dasdg : active at blocksize: 4096, 200340 blocks, 782 MB 4) ran zipl Building bootmap : /boot//bootmap Processing section : linux adding file to bootmap : /boot/vmlinuz-2.4.21-1.1931.2.399.ent located at 0x00010000 adding file to bootmap : /boot/initrd-2.4.21-1.1931.2.399.ent.img located at 0x00800000 adding file to bootmap : /boot//parmfile.1 located at 0x00001000 Trailer entries used : 7 out of 256 Bootloader for ECKD type devices with z/OS compatible layout installed.
