Sorry, the latest SLES8 has the latest stuff. I'm not sure about SLES7
stuff. Can you check the source for the 20030221 kernel? (The stuff is in
/drivers/s390/.../hwc.c) It appears you have the support contact with SuSE
so what do they say?

Okay I've got the TCP/IP rexec daemon running on z/VM. Now I'm
assuming I also have to have a rexec daemon running on my Linux guest. I'm
very much a Linux newbie.. How do you start the daemon on the Linux
side? I've looked in the man pages, but no luck on actually starting it up.
TIA,
If you want to start a process on VM from linux, you only need the rexec
client program on Linux. The rexec daemon is started from inetd (or xinetd).
Look at /etc/inetd.conf (for inetd).

I don't think that the rexec daemon needs to be running on z/VM. To have
it start with a Linux SLES7 guest, modify the /etc/inetd.conf file:
execstream tcp nowait root/usr/sbin/tcpd in.rexecd

On a related note, you might consider using the rexec command from VM to

We've just upgraded to z/VM 4.3 and would like to begin using the CP SIGNAL SHUTDOWN

When I try the SIGNAL command I get

They later kernels from SuSE have the patch in it. My patch has been adapted
by the kernel folks so that it's different to the quiesce-diffs you've
located. SLES8 definitely has it. You'll need to update /etc/inittab to
enable the signal to do the ctrl-alt-del processing.
