Even stranger, I rearranged them in the VM directory for grins Was: COMMAND DEFINE VFB-512 FF00 500000 COMMAND DEFINE VFB-512 FF01 1000000 COMMAND DEFINE VFB-512 FF02 2000000 COMMAND DEFINE VFB-512 FF03 4000000
Now COMMAND DEFINE VFB-512 FF03 4000000 COMMAND DEFINE VFB-512 FF00 500000 COMMAND DEFINE VFB-512 FF01 1000000 COMMAND DEFINE VFB-512 FF02 2000000 And now i have FF00 and FF01 working and not 2 and 3 Weird timing thing? -----Original Message----- From: Linux on 390 Port [mailto:LINUX-390@VM.MARIST.EDU] On Behalf Of Marcy Cortes Sent: Wednesday, August 10, 2016 10:12 AM To: LINUX-390@VM.MARIST.EDU Subject: [LINUX-390] vdisk swap in sles 12 Working on VDISK in sles 12. We've always just run a /etc/init.d/boot.local on sles 11 but I decided to try it the cookbook way. I have 4 disks. Only FF00 and FF02 show up, but swapon -a later will bring the other 2 online.
