The thought is to stop PPRC, replace the secondary box, then start up PPRC again. Then hyperswap. Then stop PPRC, replace the secondary box, start up PPRC again. Linux wouldn't exploit new things like zHPF until it was restarted, but that's ok with us. marcy -Original Message- From: Li

We also use TDMF from z/OS while the system is down. It would be nice (hello IBM) if TDMF was available for z/VM to perform the migration without an outage like it does for z/OS. I'd be interested in hearing how a PPRC method would work. Aaron -Original Message- From: Linux on 390 Por

Typically you would bring down guests and DDR all the volumes to the new DASD.. then clip (relabel) all the old volumes (and probably format/scrub/etc).. make adjustments to system config as needed to keep old stuff varied off, etc.Note that I'm strictly talking about doing this at the z/VM

We shutdown it down and had z/OS move the whole thing with TDMF. That thing is much faster than anything we have on VM (DDR, CA Hidro). http://www-935.ibm.com/services/us/en/it-services/softek-transparent-data-migration-facility-tdmf.html We were able to do that in dev. Production will be di

I think the one non-obvious thing with using VNC was you had to use port 1? It's been a while since I tried it. Read the message very carefully. -Original Message- From: Linux on 390 Port [mailto:LINUX-390@vm.marist.edu] On Behalf Of Mike Noel Sent: Thursday, April 25, 2013 12:04 PM To:

Thanks Bruno, Your instructions match what I initially did. I used ESAME but got a dracut msg saying /dev/root not found (see https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=907322), probably 'cause the generic.prm on the iso (at least the one I downloaded) doesn't specify "root=". So I used a modified
