Hello all, I am not sure if I do something wrong here.... I format a DASD in CP as PERM. Then I provide this DASD to Linux as fullpack minidisk, 0-END. When I issue lsdasd I see the disk is not formatted, as expected. From CP I can see the volume serial on disk via Q <rdev>
Then I run dasdfmt with a -k parameter to preserve a volume serial, it complains that there is no volume serial on the disk. If I run dasdfmt -l volser, it works as expected and sets the volume serial. So either I do something wrong or dasdfmt can set but not read the volume serial. Any ideas ? It is RHEL 5.6 Thank you =================== Marian Gasparovic =================== "The mere thought hadn't even begun to speculate about the merest possibility of crossing my mind." ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For LINUX-390 subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to lists...@vm.marist.edu with the message: INFO LINUX-390 or visit http://www.marist.edu/htbin/wlvindex?LINUX-390 ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For more information on Linux on System z, visit http://wiki.linuxvm.org/
