Ray, You should detach the CMS-oriented disks from your Linux guest before booting the Linux kernel. Your kernel should only have disks attached that Linux will actually use. Having disks attached/linked that are dedicated to one particular z/VM image will prevent relocation.

When I first tested the first zLinux image, it complained about the vdisk 592. I realized that this statement existed in z/VM V6.1 so I added the statement and the first zLinux image came up and so were other zLinux images. At z/VM V6.3, when I attempted the LGR function, it complained about it. Believe the statement is no longer applicable and need to code to address to the "IDENTITY TCPMAINT" statement instead. However I do not what the coding is like. Please advise.

I searched the "define vswitch" command and did not have a parameter for EQID. I ran the command "q controller" command and it showed the follows: q controller Controller DTCVSW2 Available: YES VDEV Range: 0600-F000 Level 630 Capability: IP ETHERNET VLAN_ARP GVRP LINKAGG ISOLATION NO_ENSEMBLE NO_INMN BRIDGE_CAPABLE VEPA SYSTEM VSWPSEG1 Active Controller: * RDEV: 0E1C SYSTEM VSWPSEG2 Active Controller: * RDEV: 0F5F Controller DTCVSW1 Available: YES VDEV Range: 0600-F000 Level 630 Capability: IP ETHERNET VLAN_ARP GVRP LINKAGG ISOLATION NO_ENSEMBLE NO_INMN BRIDGE_CAPABLE VEPA SYSTEM VSWPSEG1 Backup Controller: * RDEV: 0F5C SYSTEM VSWPSEG2 Backup Controller: * RDEV: 0E1F Those VSWITCHes are within the Communication Controllers There is a "set rdev" command for communication controllers as follows: -Set--RDEVice--+-rdev--------+--+------------+--TYpe----------> '-rdev1-rdev2-' +-EQid--eqid-+ '-NOEQid-----' .-SET_ADDRess--4-. >--+-+-BSC_ADAPTer---+--+----------------+-+------------------->< | +-IBM1_ADAPTer--+ '-SET_ADDRess--n-' | | '-TELE2_ADAPTer-' | '-3705----------------------------------' Therefore, I can do the following: set rdev 0E1C EQID myEQID However the Type parameter is mandatory. Could you let me know what it should be?

HELP HCP1928I gives you the information you need. You don't actually assign the EQID to VSWITCH, but to the RDEVs that it is using as uplinks. Your VSWITCHes are using devices E1C-E21 and 5FC-601 on all 4 LPARs, but your RDEVICE statements aren't setting the EQID on those devices. For example, note here than you are assigning an EQID to E10-E12 and F50-F52, but you aren't using those devices in the DEFINE VSWITCH. > NAVY: BEGIN > rdev 0E10-0E12 eqid PSEGzVM type osa > rdev 0F50-0F52 eqid PSEGzVM type osa > vmlan macprefix 02000B > vmlan MACIDRANGE SYSTEM 000001-0FFFFF USER 0F0001-0FFFFF vmlan limit > transient 0 > NAVY: END : > define vswitch VSWPSEG1 rdev 0E1C 0F5C ethernet define vswitch > VSWPSEG2 rdev 0F5F 0E1F ethernet Alan Altmark Senior Managing z/VM and Linux Consultant Lab Services System z Delivery Practice IBM Systems & Technology Group ibm.com/systems/services/labservices office: 607.429.3323 mobile; 607.321.7556 alan_altm...@us.ibm.com IBM Endicott ---------------------------------------------------------------------- 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/ -----------------------------------------The information contained in this e-mail, including any attachment(s), is intended solely for use by the named addressee(s).
