A shot in the dark: Is this NIC coupled to a VSWITCH for which you forgot

HI everyone. This post has created some confusion within my VM group and I
wanted to see if I understand XSTORE and MDC. Linux does not utilize XSTORE for
MiniDisk Cache and you are better off using XSTORE for VM paging. Especially if
you over commit VDISK swap space. We tend to overcommit swap

So I'm sure this has been asked before but I couldn't find much about
it. If the default is set to 1, is there a down side to setting it to
0? In other words, in what types of circumstances would you NOT want to
change this variable?

Is there a simple way to determine if you are running on a 64-bit system?
Is the result of getconf LONG_BIT a good indication?
Thanks,

If you are running 31 Bit the output from uname -m would be s390 (without

As you might expect, we at Computer Associates run more than one z/VM
node, and z/VM on more than one physical processor. We have embraced
using Virtual Switch technology for all the good reasons that Alan
Altmark (and others) have outlined here and at SHARE. Recently we
noticed something odd.

May be I need to use both of them, uname -m to tell me if the virtual
machine is running 64-bit or not and gconf to tell me if the applicaion
is running on 31 or 64 bit mode.

I'm not running OpenAFS, but typically a segfault is an indication of not
enough memory. Bump your Linux memory size or swap file size.
