Doing a cat on the host_access_count file gets the same/similar error when running in an LPAR. So, I don't think this is necessarily z/VM related. [1715374.556774] dasd-eckd.b3193d: 0.0.25e8: An error occurred in the DASD device driver, reason=09 [1715374.556791] dasd(eckd): I/O status report

Thanks! That's worth a shot. I'll have to do some experimenting. SLES 11 never had any issues with it and LVM certainly shouldn't lose its wits until the next reboot, but if we can work around that, at least we can avoid getting it into that state and save a reboot. Marcy -Original

I would open a ticket so that that Linux doesn't issue it when using a non-fp minidisk (which it can easily find out). Error messages should never be treated as "oh, just ignore it." If you do that, then you ignore the real error messages. You are right and all I was saying was that the
