After adding the new DASD, did you run mkinitrd and zipl, to fold them into
the boot configuration? I think that on RedHat, you also have to add them to

This is the last step in adding DASD, and the one that I've forgotten way

Were you able to verify that the device is online?
If lscss is unavailable, go to the dev directory:
Determine the device number (say 204) either from an lsdasd or
cat /proc/dasd/devices
cd /sys/bus/ccw/drivers/dasd-eckd/0.0.0204
cat online . . . .if value zero (offline), then
echo 1 > online
I finally got it working again. My initial attempts to restore didn't
work, but after going back to the second backup, it did restore and was
able to find the VG.
I really appreciate everyone's responses.

I did a pvscan, and it shows that I have 4 active and 3 inactive PV's
that belong to volume group oraclevg. My question is, how does a PV
become inactive, and is it really in my VG if it says inactive?

Here's what I see when I do the PVSCAN

The funny thing is when I go into yast, those inactive volumes don't
show as being in any VG, it just has -- for the group name.

I asking help for my VM collegues here. We have hit a wall. I know this is
mainly a zLinux forum, but I know there's a lot of VM talent in here.

Ismael,
My first guess is that z/VM 3.1 and/or z/VM 5.1 need PTF's for z9
support. z/VM 3.1 has been long out of support, so no such PTF exists.
z/VM 5.1 is also out of support, but if it was supported when z9's were
introduced, there would be a support PTF for it. If there is such a
PTF, did you
1st thing: do you have TRACK installed? If so, examine what the 3.1
system is doing. That should help you find the problem. Also, did you
change any of the other hardware (ie, disk, etc?)

Hi Ismael,
Do you have VM/RTM (the VM RealTime Monitor) on the z/VM systems? If
not, what do you use for a realtime performance monitor?
It could be something as simple as a virtual machine that's unhappy
about something and looping. Anything look out of the ordinary on
VM/RTM?

You may want to look at the "Upgrade 2094DEVICE, subset 2094/ZVM"

I think his thinking about using Linux as an intermediary at the
production and hot sites is that he doesn't have to pay another license
for z/VM to always be running at the hot site.
With some programming, Linux at the hot site might even be able to
