I just came back from Share and we would like to try to bring up Linux
on an lpar on our z9. I was told to remove all of the dasd except what
Linux would be using. What else should or should not be included in this
IOCDS? Anything else that might prove helpful?
We plan to try this with CentOS-5.

Hi,
You will also need your OSA cards and maybe some tape addresses. Are you going
to be using native Lpar or zVM?

IBM will loan you VM for a "trial", generally for free if you ask
nicely. You'll waste a lot of time and effort getting Linux working in
LPAR for no gain, and you lose a lot of the cool factor by only being
able to create one Linux system.

Since both Novell and RH offer downloadable trial versions, it doesn't
make a lot of sense to mess with CentOS if you're seriously considering
production use. Just do
To directly answer your question:
1. Remove anything you don't want to give to the Linux test system. After

then the Linux image, may be told to take and use devices that the production
system(s) want.

zVM is definitively the way to go, our experience in zVM was none and still we
were able to install/configure zVM without major problems. If your are still
going to use CentOS instead of RedHat or SUSE you may want to take a look at

I can get that fix
I've no problem with the but our Linux guys use Red Hat on the
other servers. Since it's an uphill swim already, I've gotta go with the
path of least resistance.

The default in SLES10 is "sftp" i.e. encrypted FTP.

Hi,
In the past I had a similar problem but don't really remember if I was still on
zVM 4.4 or zVM 5.2. The problem was fixed after applying the latest maintenance
to zVM.

Are you SURE? After I got OpenSSL using libica correctly, I spent about
three months trying to make it work with OpenSSH and never got anywhere.
Do you have a recipe?

I was running out of space on '/', so I followed the procedure to move part of

It mounted successfully, so I updated /etc/fstab following the procedure. All
was good. So I shut down and rebooted. Dur
Afternoon again,
During a reboot this afternoon, I received a message stating that it had been
143 days since /dev/dasd?1 had been checked. Check forced.
This occurred for all the physical /dev/dasd?1 drives, the two small LVM
groups, and some of the special directories.
Is this normal
This is normal for EXT2 filesystems. I don't know if this also happens on EXT3.

I do this to provide OSA failover for the TCP/IP stack. It's easier
than configuring VIPA.
