Hi all, I've been trying to think of any reason to ever have cio_ignore in a VM guest. I can see real use for it in an LPAR where you may have thousands of devices that have nothing to do with the Linux instance. But in a virtual machine I only give it the devices I want it to have in the first place.
Teaching it to new comers, they can easily understand chccwdev -e as the logical equivalent of varying something online to VM or z/OS. With having to issue a cio_ignore -r then a chccwdev -e I keep getting asked why they have to vary it online twice. And I don't have any good answer... Thoughts? Insights?
