Jonathon is correct. VM will need a force start and Linux will fsck. We've done more than a dozen tests and have had no issues with either. This is with SLES 9 and 10 and ext3 file systems.

I've never had an SFS server complain, but our CMS workload is rather light. Linux will want to fsck its filesystems. I've really never had a problem and we've done 4 or 5 DR tests with this configuration (all ext3 filesystems). -----Original Message----- From: Linux on 390 Port [mailto:linux-...@vm.marist.edu] On Behalf Of Melancon, Ruddy Sent: Wednesday, June 02, 2010 10:59 AM To: LINUX-390@VM.MARIST.EDU Subject: VM Linux Replication We are currently using TPC asyncronous replication with a 30 second consistency group to a remote shark for our zOS disaster recovery. We would like to do the same with our new zVM and Linux system. What do I need to look out for as potential problems? Will I have problems with zVM or Linux on recovery? Ruddy A.
