I'm looking forward to btrfs on SLES 12; specifically its snapshot capabilities and how we can use it to perform system rollbacks (the integration of zypper, snapper & GRUB2 to accomplish this).

With SLES12, zipl really doesn't play much of a role. You still need it, but it only gets executed when grub2 gets [re-]installed. That's why you won't see a /etc/zipl.conf any more. So, to answer your question, don't worry about whether zipl supports system rollback. It's not a consideration. Something that _is_ a consideration are btrfs subvolumes. The way the rollback feature works, everything that is in a subvolume of / is _not_ included in the snapshots and hence cannot be rolled back. That's why you see things like /var/log, /home, /opt and so on as subvolumes. So, don't go creating subvolume without keeping in mind they won't be part of a rollback.

You'll need to contact SUSE for a PTF. I was told it is 987099 in Bugzilla.suse.com But I don't seem to have access to that. -Original Message- From: Linux on 390 Port [mailto:LINUX-390@VM.MARIST.EDU] On Behalf Of Aria Bamdad Sent: Wednesday, August 17, 2016 9:11 AM To: LINUX-390@VM.MARIST.EDU Subject: Re: [LINUX-390] SLES 11 SP4 - Kernel locking up Does anyone know what kernel level this bug has been fixed in or can you provide a link to an issue that I can monitor?

SUSE has a test fix for it. Has to do with running 32bit programs.

This is on two separate Linux guests and it happens - right away- after starting some network applications: Linux completely freezes. If we go back to the previous kernel everything runs fine. I've opened a case with SUSE & we'll be uploading a z/VM dump of the guests but wondered if anyone else has seen this before (recently)?

Re: cmsfs-fuse data refreshing
No, because there is no logical connection between the Linux guest and the CMS guest. Linux has no way to know that the disk contents were changed. Only by using NFS can Linux see a changed file, and that file would be an SFS file.

It looks like the data is not refreshed on Linux and I have to unmount vary the dasd offline, vary online and mount again to see the changes.Any suggestion would be appreciate.
