That's not a circumvention, that's the solution to your problem.  Unless Red 
Hat decides to modify their kernels to use the old naming convention, this will 
continue to be needed until you modify all your scripts to handle the 
"predictable names."

Hi,
Thank you for the response.  Umm... I'm not sure about this but I circumvented 
with



 echo 'GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX=net.ifnames=0' >>/etc/default/grub


I would appreciate, you or anybody can bring more light into this.


Regards,
Tom

Hi,

Sorry for commenting so late, but regarding #1, make sure that you remove all 
IP device restrictions. This is found in /etc/zipl.conf... the statements start 
with "rd.znet":

i.e. -   
rd.znet=qeth,0.0.0600,0.0.0601,0.0.0602,layer2=0,portno=0,portname=foo"

I hope this helps.

Hi,

I am not a Redhat expert so can't comment on #1.  But for #2, no, you do not 
want to delete those tempfs file systems.  This is how the kernel keeps track 
of things. These are in memory temporary file systems that are created at boot 
and disappear at shutdown. Leave these alone.

Subject: RHEL 7.4 - Difficulties

Hi,
I would appreciate if you can help me with the following:

1. Changing the Interface name (I followed the instructions on the link : 
https://access.redhat.com/solutions/2592561 and it didn't work.)

# ip link
1: lo:  mtu 65536 qdisc noqueue state UNKNOWN mode 
DEFAULT qlen 1 link/loopback 00:00:00:00:00:00 brd 00:00:00:00:00:00
2: enccw0.0.0100:  mtu 1500 qdisc pfifo_fast 
state UP mode DEFAULT qlen 1000 link/ether 02:00:03:00:00:8c brd 
ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff

I need to change enccw0.0.0100 to eth0 because we have so many scripts which 
uses eth0.

# nmcli connection modify enccw0.0.0100 connection.interface-name eth0 # nmcli 
connection up eth0
Error: unknown connection 'eth0'.

# udevadm info /sys/class/net/enccw0.0.0100

E: SUBSYSTEM=net
E: SYSTEMD_ALIAS=/sys/subsystem/net/devices/enccw0.0.0100
E: TAGS=:systemd:
E: USEC_INITIALIZED=85059

2.  File system - When I installed, I created single partition "/" for the 
entire disk.  But, after the install completed, I see the following.  Should I 
go ahead and delete all "tmpfs"?

 df -T
Filesystem Type 1K-blocksUsed Available Use% Mounted on
/dev/dasda1ext4  21160896 4004264  16058644  20% /
devtmpfs   devtmpfs   8141464   0   8141464   0% /dev
tmpfs  tmpfs  8155160   0   8155160   0% /dev/shm
tmpfs  tmpfs  81551608468   8146692   1% /run
tmpfs   tmpfs  8155160   0   8155160   0% /sys/fs/cgroup
tmpfs  tmpfs   1631032   0   1631032   0% /run/user/0

By default we partition the whole disk as on ECKD and use SAN for all other 
purposes.

 df -h
Filesystem   Size  Used Avail Use% Mounted on
/dev/dasda1 19G   16G  2.1G  89%   /
tmpfs 499M 0  499M   0%  /dev/shm

Appreciate your help.

Tom

Red Hat 6 fails to boot after zVM 6.4 upgrade

2017-11-06 Thread Vitale, Joseph
Hello,

Running a  CA  zLinux  Product called  "PIM"  aka eTrust or 
Control Minder.  A Linux security product managing ID's,  su  access, etc..   
Product fails during boot causing core dumps.

Did I miss some compatibility setting upgrading from zVM 6.3 to 
6.4



Thanks
 Joe
