Dear all,
I can confirm that the udev settle is returning always with zero. I have
the timeout set to even to 60 sec and an exit if the device node is

I've not done much, but my first step was:
getfacl -Rst . | tr '\n' ' ' | { sed 's/#/\n#/g'; echo; } | cat
In a small test in the current directory, I had two files with ACLs in ~/z.
When I ran the above in ~, the output looked like:

Over time, some of my systems have ACLs scattered around and I'm looking for a
way to get a report of which users and groups have ACLs set across a file

of detail to sift through. Are there any utilities that will disp

Yeah, that's pretty much guaranteed

If you did the test on SLES11 or later, I don't think that command will fail
since it uses /proc/cio_settle.

Nice test case! I modified it a bit :)) I never got the chccwdev to fail.
I did see the mkswap fail regularly. Then I randomly added a "udevadm
settle" after the chccwdev -e. Every time the udevadm settl

Can't progress much without it.

We have been running several z/OS LPARS and several z/VM LPARS alongside of

The zVM hosts RHEL.

We have not considered running z/OS under z/VM.

David, we've been running Linux on Z for quite a while, since about 2003 or so.
Tech management read about the IFL processor for the z/800, IBM made them a
heck of a deal and we had someone step up and offer to support Linux and VM so
we were off and running.
Now we're floundering a bit. Te

Thanks for the walkthrough. The problem appears

It's not a distribution issue; it's a timing-dependent issue that has to do
with how quickly your hardware responds. Your script will work *most* of the
time -- except when it doesn't.
Easy way to rep
Good morning again and a happy Friday to all.
I wanted to thank everyone who responded to my post yesterday. This listserv
looks like a tremendous resource and repository of z/Linux and mainframe
knowledge. I'm sure I'll be back soon!

In fact, it would be better to say that IBM no longer recommends against
running production z/OS on z/VM, now letting business factors rather
