I don't understand there are no "real" addresses in the z/Linux configuration files. They are virtual DASD addresses. If z/Linux is running under z/VM, then just use z/VM to map the new real DASD addresses into the same virtual addresses for the z/Linux guest. That's one of the major pluses of z/VM.
