I have set up a public service web page at

for posting positions available and wanted for VM, VSE and linux/390.

I have an small web application that was developed on a laptop with WAS5.0 web
studio and DB2. They decided to install it on my Z800 Linux LPAR running WAS 5.0.2 and
DB2 8.1. It installed OK as best as I can tell. I set up the JDBC provider and the
data source. I also setup the J2C

While our CP (z/VM 4.4) is 64-bit, our release of SuSE SLES8 is 31-bit.
This worked on SLES8, but doesn't with SLES8-SP3.

Hi,
We were adding a large number of disks to our SuSE8 image. Normally, it
adds the dasd as dasda, dasdb, etc. When we added disk 27, it adds
the dasd as dasdaa.
Here is the log when the devices were added:
dasd(eckd): /dev/dasdaa ( 94:104),[EMAIL PROTECTED]: 3390/0A(CU:3990/01) Cyl:3338
Ken,
For any dasd greater than dasdz you must run mknod
mknod -m 660 /dev/dasdaa b 94 104
mknod -m 660 /dev/dasdaa1 b 94 105
mknod -m 660 /dev/dasdab b 94 108
mknod -m 660 /dev/dasdab1 b 94 109
Get the major/minor node numbers from a cat of /proc/dasd/devices

I've been working with the SuSE SLES9 beta, which is a
2.6.5 kernel. The April 16, 2004, Device Drivers,
Features and Commands for the IBM site talks about
udev and how it can can provide alternate device
names.
Has anyone made it work for zSeries? Is there a sample
of how to enter the command,
A couple of scripts have been posted to automatically take care of this. If nobody
else has the short one handy, I'll try to find mine.

I've built the RPMs for udev (0.23) with 2.6.4. I've not done anything with
the alternative device names, but out of the box it does a good job of
populating /sysfs.

Ken,
Which nodes in /dev/ come pre-defined is entirely up to the Linux
distributor. In your case, SUSE decided to stop at /dev/dasdz?. As others
have pointed out, that doesn't prevent you from defining your own. Just
remember when you upgrade to a new platform that you need to check this to
Note that this is a rather brute force method (it does not check to see if
the nodes already exist), and that it will only define nodes for volumes
that have already been dasdfmt'ed, and fdasd'd, and the appropriate DASD
kernel modules loaded. Those caveats aside, it'll create what is needed.
Right. The script I wrote, which is a little less elegant, uses /proc/dasd/devices,
and builds nodes for only active devices.
