They are ECKD. The PMR is already open.

Hi Victor -
Are these devices on FCP CHPIDs? I am seeing similar Linux failures (disabled 
wait PSWs without anything in logs, etc) but with different errors, usually 
IFCCs and invalid sense codes. Perhaps you should open a PMR. My guess is the 
hardware is presenting phantoms.

CP typically recovers but somehow it punches Linux's lights out. But it's not 
killing all Linux machines. In my environment I'm thinking it's in flight I/O. 
That's just a guess.

The strange thing is the Channel path id = invalid

Hi Victor:
I see similar events from time to time always corresponding to phantom I/O IFCC 
and complaints about unknown sense. Did you check the VM OPERATOR log for I/O 
errors? There could be some interesting alerting in there.
Good luck,
David Kreuter

Mark:

Checking the other vm's I found two more guest at the same time, stops . I open 
an issue with IBM regarding this. Three are SLES 11 SP4 and one is with SLES 12 
SP3 those are running under z/VM 6.4. Our Unix team are checking the info you 
suggest.

Thanks,

No, but you might gain some insight into what part of the Linux kernel that 
came from by looking at the /boot/System.map file that corresponds to the 
kernel you were running.  It's also possible that there are some messages in 
the system log/journal just prior to that error.
