RHEL 6.2 will not IPL

2012-08-21 Thread Michael MacIsaac
Hi, I have a RHEL 6.2 system that I logged into OK yesterday and did some work (including installing a number of RPMs). This morning I was unable to login through SSH, though I'm sure I used the right password. So I went to the console which still had root logged on and tried the passwd

Michael, I think you best shot for now is to start RHEL in init 1 or Single user mode, and put SELinux in permissive mode. If it works, probably RACF is not behaving well with SELinux. If you need help with that, let me know, Regards, Filipe Miranda Linux on System z On 21/08/2012, at

Hi, I'll follow up with more info on the can't login/SE Linux issue later. I reinstalled RHEL 6.2, this time dasdfmt'ing the two disks from a root shell before using the install shell. I turned off SE Linux by setting SELINUX=permissive in /etc/selinux/config, and ran through the same steps

One thing I ran into on RHEL6: Ext4 seems to be a bit more sensitive about being properly closed than ext3 did, and RHEL6 by default doesn't go to a shell prompt when install is done (at least when using kickstart). When I built a test system with ext4 and a default kickstart setup, the system

Based on my understanding, machine guests such as linux on z/VM can get cpu resource by their SHARE value. For example, LINUXA system has SHARE RELATIVE 100. LINUXB system also has SHARE RELATIVE 100. So LINUXA and LINUXB both has 50% of real physical processor resource. If LINUXA has 2 virtual
