Cloning question for zLinux
I am having a problem with cloning zLinux systems ( use DirMaint clonedisk command to create the 201 disk for our cloned zlinux guests) This is a SuSE10 sp2 system we run the cloning process from My process will create a single clone without problem. vmcp link userid 201 20f mr chccwdev -e 20f mount /dev/dasb1 /newsys1 then change ipaddress and hostname While that program is running we start another clone which does the following vmcp link userid 201 20e mr chcwdev -e 20e mount /dev/dasdc1 /newsys2 and then the second one fails: sed: File /newsys2/etc/sysconfig/network/ifcfg-qeth-bus-ccw-0.0.4220 not found. Is there something in the zLinux kernel that would not allow two disk to be online that are identical to start with? Thanks, Gary L. Detro Senior IT Specialist 1177 S.

Linking the same disk r/w twice will likely destroy the disk. Link it RR instead.

Re: Cloning question for zLinux
Gary -- There is nothing in the kernel that cares if two disks have identical content unless you mount by label, which you did not. (And I am counting PV stamps as labels.) I gotta wonder if your second 'vmcp link' acquired a RO link instead of a RW link? You were right to use the mr token, but what that tells VM is to give me a read link if someone else has a write link. Does another virtual machine have the disk in RW mode? (Forgive me if you know this. We are a mixture on this list.) -- R; Rick Troth Velocity Software http://www.velocitysoftware.com/ On Wed, Mar 9, 2011 at 13:02, Gary Detro de...@us.ibm.com wrote: I am having a problem with cloning zLinux systems ( use DirMaint clonedisk command to create the 201 disk for our cloned zlinux guests) This is a SuSE10 sp2 system we run the cloning process from My process will create a single clone without problem. vmcp link userid 201 20f mr chccwdev -e 20f mount /dev/dasb1 /newsys1 then change ipaddress and hostname While that program is running we start another clone which does the following vmcp link userid 201 20e mr chcwdev -e 20e mount /dev/dasdc1 /newsys2 and then the second one fails: sed: File /newsys2/etc/sysconfig/network/ifcfg-qeth-bus-ccw-0.0.4220 not found.

No - you can mount 2 separate DASD's as long as they aren't LVM volumes - no problem. So - does that file exist?(the config for the 4220) ..if not, why not?Need more info about your clones..

Re: Cloning question for zLinux
Odd.. it must have a empty filesystem on it or it wouldn't mount..DIRM CLONEDISK is doing a physical copy. Unless the CLONEDISK failed (and there was a previous empty filesystem on the disk), I'm not sure why you're seeing an empty directory. Maybe show us a 'df -h' command as well as an 'lsdasd'?

Re: Cloning question for zLinux
When the scripts are running I can see Dirmaint creating the disks (using flashcopy, so I don't have to wait until the copy completes). The process also does a lsdasd and shows the disks that are online (in the failing case, both targets are online and have been mounted without any error messages). Thanks, Gary L.

Re: Cloning question for zLinux
It's not necessarily true that you don't need to wait until the copy completes... if the FLASHCOPY gets an RC0 - ok -- but if it gets a RC indicating for example - that there are already pending flashcopies for the device -- I'm not sure offhand if DATAMOVE tries again or fails the workunit. You want to see that DIRMAINT has sucessfully performed the CLONEDISK before proceeding. (not sure you haven't -- just cautioning) Scott Rohling On Wed, Mar 9, 2011 at 12:16 PM, Gary Detro de...@us.ibm.com wrote: When the scripts are running I can see Dirmaint creating the disks (using flashcopy, so I don't have to wait until the copy completes).
