This would imply to me that your triggers are poorly set.

Which is why having a rescue system around with either no LVM in use, or with

well - then you have to link all of the disks that are part of the LVM - so

It's a common and easy mistake. Here's a tip ... before rebooting, if
there have been changes to /etc/fstab, then do this:
mount -a
It will cause the system to [re]examine /etc/fstab and try to mount
everything which would
Bobby,
First make sure the problem server is down and logged off to make sure the
disks are not linked and are not in use in write mode anywhere else. You
don't want to link to a minidisk in write mode from more than one place.
So, on SLES 11, you can do this:
vmcp link deadserver 201 2201 w pa
Thanks Scott, could I ask for the steps for LVM?

This assumes 2201 contains a single filesystem.. if it's part of an LVM,
there's more to all this..

I usually don't use sed to remove a line, I make a copy of the file and use
"grep -v" to rip the offending line out of existence... It's simpler.
mount -o rw,remount /

grep -v 'LogVol08' /etc/fstab.1 > /etc/fstab
And you are good to go. Reboot and you can edit the file
Or just link the VM minidisk with the root file system for this failing
system as R/W on an working linux system, let's call that the maintenance

I always keep a copy of the old file when working with Linux on z - for key
files like /etc/fstab especially. That way I can issue single command

We lower the default for the parmvm.swappiness
The default is 60 and we mostly set this to 5 now.
To see where it's set now;
cat /proc/sys/vm/swappiness
Change it;
echo 5 > /proc/sys/vm/swappiness
Update the /etc/sysctl.conf file to keep where you want it ... 20, 5, or

Is there a way to disable or limit the amount of SwapCache? I understand
it's function, but the double allocation of these pages is causing my low
memory alerts to trip.
I can remove the swap copy with a swapoff/swapon. Is there a more elegant
way to remove?
