Ok. Thanks. I thought the chccwdev thing was all I really needed but wasn't
100% certain. I went forward using that as the replacement to echoing a
command request ala sles 8 and it all was fine. Must say the device
detection/allocation is much improved in SLES 9.

I wouldn't think there are any "gotchas," per se. The only thing you
need to be aware of is the chccwdev command to bring the new volumes
online after they've been attached or linked to the guest.

Subject: Temporarily adding DASD to SLES 9 systems
If one wants to add a couple volumes to reduce the footprint in cyl of a
couple volumes that were re-sized incorrectly what is the best way to do
that?
Had it down pat in SLES 8
Anyway looking to bring 2 3000 cyl volumes in to replace a 8000 and 5000
cyl volume respectively, temporarily as devs 211 and 281, copy devs 201
and 280 to 211 and 281 via the procedure on the linuxvm.org website then
so all the needed things like zipl etc, and then change the guest
definition to get rid of the old 201 and 280 and reassign 211 and 281 as
201 and 280 respectively.
Any gotchas in how to do this on sles 9?
