Hi, I've just installed our first RHEL4.4 Linux under z/VM 5.3 (RSU 0703) and we have a slight issue with the fdisk and fsck commands in that they don't recognise the partitions on the 3390 minidisks that Linux is using for it's dasda disk: [EMAIL PROTECTED] ~]# fdisk -l Note: sector size

IFL usage for DataGuard

2012-05-18 Thread Guest, Darren
Hi, We are implementing a DataGuard solution to sync data with our DR system. Does anyone have any idea how much capacity a single z10 EC IFL at the DR end (ie: the DataGuard receiving system) would be able to handle, eg: redo log rates in GB/hour? The IFL would be running Oracle 11.2.0.3.2

Hi Mikael, I believe you're OK providing you're on the same type of machine (ie: z/Series to z/Series is fine). We're about to do this (z196 to z10 EC) so I'll let you know if it works!! :-) Cheers, Darren -Original Message- From: Linux on 390 Port [mailto:LINUX-390@VM.MARIST.EDU]

Hi all, Our Linux team has just upgraded some of our SLES11 SP1 systems (running under z/VM 6.2 on a zEC12) to SP3. The systems run Oracle and the Oracle test bods report that Oracle is now 10-20% slower. They identified Oracle SR 13074706 and applied it. Although that helped, they still think

Hi, My understanding is that having 5 IFLs on each LPAR would mean you'd have to license all 10 IFLs on the box; the total of 20 logical IFLs would be dispatched on all 10 physical IFLs. I believe that if your total logical IFLs is 5 or less then you would be OK; only 5 physical IFLs worth

Meltdown/Spectre; Linux on z affected?

Hi, Not sure if people have seen that attached article or heard of the 'intel' chip issues from elsewhere: https://www.theregister.co.uk/2018/01/02/intel_cpu_design_flaw/ The 'fix' for meltdown (at least) is apparently to change the Linux kernel which will potentially affect performance. I'm
