it is possible, but not very user friendly, so using "sed" or
"echo ... >>" are the primary options

access to the SSH yet as network service is not up

Hi Peter,

Ideally, you dedicate the FCP devices with the same virtual devno to the guest 
in the DR site as to the guest in the main site.


If that's really not possible for you, you indeed probably would add the DR 
virtual FCP devnos to /etc/zipl.conf [designed method for the root-fs] and 
additionally to /etc/zfcp.conf. Re-create initramfs. Re-write zipl boot record. 
Would be easiest if you could do that while booted on the main site.

https://www.ibm.com/docs/en/linux-on-systems?topic=devices-configure

The different storage WWPN and LUN in the DR site, should not be much of a 
problem as your FCP devices are NPIV-enabled and I assume you have a somewhat 
recent Linux distribution (such as RHEL 7 or later?), so zfcp auto lun scan 
would automatically discover paths in the DR site for you.

The replicated volume still shows the older WWPN, FCPS

Not sure if I can update it from 3270 emulator logon ?

The full console output is helpful (not necessarily sufficient, though) in such 
cases, especially the parts about "Kernel command line:". I usually spool the 
Linux console of my guests to get the full output later on.



this usually means that the storage device with the root filesystem
can't be found. Does the VM definitions match the Linux parameters?

Dracut timeout

Hi

I tried bringing up the Linux service machine in our DR site after updating
the guest user directory with FCP device, updating WWPN of Storage box ,
LUN and ran the exec from zVM and I received the below message. Not sure
what needs to be done. Any suggestions?
