That's what we do. But we also still mkswap and swapon on the Linux side. That way if changes are made to the swap signature info there, no worries.
Also we had to change the vdisk in the directory to COMMAND DEFINE VFB-512 .... in order to support LGR. Also had to add OPTION CHPIDV ONE Be sure your vswitches are defined the same as well or you won't be able to relocate. Wave didn't deal with CMS in the directory entry in November. I think that has been fixed, but I haven't retested yet. -----Original Message----- From: Linux on 390 Port [mailto:LINUX-390@VM.MARIST.EDU] On Behalf Of O'Brien, Dennis L Sent: Friday, January 22, 2016 1:53 PM To: LINUX-390@VM.MARIST.EDU Subject: Re: [LINUX-390] SSI guest best practice Immediately before you IPL Linux, detach the CMS disks (190 19D 19E) in the guest's PROFILE EXEC.
