I have been asked several times by our network people if there is a way to
get Linux to stop using IPv6 DNS resolution. With multiple search domains,
Linux will try all of them in IPv6 before it tries IPv4. Especially when
considering the IBM WebSphere is excessive with its use of DNS lookup,

Anybody recommend current install and use doc. We are running z/VM 5.4 and

I'm finding a lot of old doc for VM 5.1 and Redhat 4.

Ed,
I think we need to look at your configuration a little deeper. You say that
Linux can see all 6 of your real processors. By default VM will give just
one virtual processor to a guest. How are you determining that you can get
to all 6 processors with Linux? I think you will need to start by

So does your construct

Thank you for the clarifications.
The VM LPAR in question is also running a z/OS guest hence the need to allocate
the real CP's. From the HMC profile perspective, all the engines are
shared among all the LPAR's.
