All systems are clones of an original, so all device assignments in Linux are the same across systems. Here is my ZIPL and FSTAB. I cannot generate the error messages as I had to re-clone the system and get it back online. I was receiving errors on different filesystems and I ran FSCK's on them, then received this abend in the kernel: I restored the Linux volumes from the backup tapes and it will not come up all the way. I switched tape sets with the same result. The kernel is abending. ************************************************************************ ****

Are your Linux guests device number consistent across Linuxen? As in, /dev/dasdb1 is always device 601 and /{root file system} is 600, etc? Or is it on Linux A it's 600,601,602 etc and Linux B it's 400,401,402 etc? What does your zipl.conf look like? Also can you post any messages you get when you try to boot them?
