To my knowledge, there aren't any mirrors of SUSE Linux Enterprise software.  
SUSE Product Management has old versions removed from the search results that 
get returned on download.suse.com to prevent customers from downloading them by 
mistake.

If you have a reasonable cause to need them, you can try opening a support 
request with your support provider.

H What the heck is CCW op code X'66'?  Something took the device 
offline or detached it from the guest.   A real I/O error would have been 
reflected to the OPERATOR's console.

Ubuntu under z/VM Installation / IPL problem

2016-06-15 Thread Terry Madge
My colleague has been attempting to install Ubuntu under z/VM and has created 
the 4 files required to IPL under z/VM CMS for the first time;

INITRD
KERNEL
PARMFILE
UBUNTU EXEC

When he attempts to IPL by issuing L C02UBU2 BY MAINT, he is prompted by the 
boot menu and it then goes into a disabled wait state.

The disabled wait state indicates an inability to start the subchannel to 
continue the IPL, does anyone have any ideas what may be causing the problem? 
Is there an option during installation that should have been taken? This is 
being IPL'd using a V7000 , not DS8000 ECKD disk.

ICH70001I C02UBU1  LAST ACCESS AT 11:46:42 ON MONDAY, JUNE 13, 2016

Any help is much appreciated.

Kind Regards
