Hello,

I got help, and found the solution.

The user direct was incorrect (on z/VM level). This line: IPL SUSE11DB PARM
DASD=300-3FF
   The correct line:    IPL SUSE11DB PARM DASD=300-5FF

The DASD range was not extended.  This is working now!

About the root cause: Before the extension of LVM and creating of the new
LV and FS, the chccwdev was enough. But after and during the first boot,
the lvm was not able to find the necessary PV and building up the LV and
FS, so the filesystems was harmed or missed.

But I got another idea also:
use dasd_configure to configure the new dasds:
Example:
dasd_configure 0.0.0400 1 0
dasd_configure 0.0.0401 1 0
dasd_configure 0.0.0402 1 0
...
This command should bring the dasd online and create a udev rule to make it
persistent at ipl time.

As I see now, this second solution would be good also (it was not tested,
because of the server is very sensitive and in production).

About the affected system:
myhostname:~ # cat /etc/SuSE-release
SUSE Linux Enterprise Server 11 (s390x)
VERSION = 11
PATCHLEVEL = 4
myhostname:~ #



Kind Regards :
Csaba Polgar

There's not nearly enough information to know what's going on, yet.  First,
what distribution is this?  What maintenance level?

Next, is this an LVM setup, or something else?  If LVM, then some output
from things like "vgs" "pvs" "vgdisplay -v" and so on would be helpful.
