Re: Udev ressize 256 too short

2008-11-17 Thread Marcy Cortes
 
Thanks Mark.

Even though it may be only cosmetic, I think I'll go ahead and open an
SR to get it cleaned up.  It's just one of those things that's liable to
confuse the next soul who gets a page about this server and goes barking
up the wrong tree.  With 5+TB of DASD (actually 20 with local mirror,
remote mirror, and disaster recovery space), I'm a little nervous about
anything that does't look perfectly clean at the moment.

As Malcolm reported, the output from a command being run by udev is
producing more than 256 *bytes* of output.  In a case I worked on with
another couple of customer, it turned out to be the "dmsetup" command.
It didn't appear to be causing any problems, so I don't know why udev is
issuing the command in the first place if it doesn't need all the output
from it.  Strange, but it seems to be cosmetic.

Oracle sites using ASM

2008-11-17 Thread Rich Smrcina

Are there sites running Oracle on Linux on System z that are also using ASM 
(Automatic
Storage Management).

If so, did you compare the performance of ASM against a similar configuration 
with LVM?
 What did you measure it with and what were the results?

Thanks.

It's unlikely that his authorization to couple to the VSWITCH goes away between 
phase 1 and phase 2 of the install.

Hi Richard!

The most common problem with a VSWITCH is the lack of authorization to use
it. Under MAINT, try a Q VSWITCH ACCESS. If your guest isn't listed, you can
solve it using "CP SET VSWITCH VSW1 GRANT LINUX99".

It sounds like you meant this to go to a specific individual, but you sent it 
to the list.  No harm done, from what I can see.

If your problem hasn't been fixed, and you'd like more help from the whole 
community, give some details on your setup and the exact error messages you're 
getting.  The list has a very good track record on figuring things out.

Very heavy, as well. Takes two *strong* people to move one. Takes a serious
cart to move one very far.

Don't forget the Xerox D-machines and the Symbolics, and the LMI machines as
well. Symbolics still has a lot of applications in DOD space, and there are
still hundreds of D-machines and D-machine descendants in the space program.

> Anyone else want to 'fess up to having worked with UCSD Pascal or Modula-2?

Many, many hours with both. And p-System FORTRAN, and the p-Writing Tools
package developed at UCSD, which was a brilliant set of writing assistant
gadgets for teaching technical writing, and an ancestor of Google Apps by
marriage.  Modula, less time, but contributed a fair amount of doc kvetching
to the CMS Modula port.

P-System was more than just the languages -- the whole environment was
pretty slick. It had a very decent editor and (if you liked Lotus 123), a
fairly intuitive interface. It'd be a great start for a very lightweight
Java OS that actually could be useful.

KVM just uses qemus device subsystem for I/O emulation and it uses it as a
management hub. The qemu console allows to attach/detach devices/cpus and
such similar to CPs console.
