Currently running Debian Squeeze 6.0.5 on an IBM System Z z9 BC. We run under z/VM as a guest. Today we added a 3390 volume and I was able to get it online and formatted as /dev/dasdb1. I can create and mount a filesystem. However, I can't make the dasd device permanently available(online) across reboots. To get it online and mounted I had to resort to the following:
In /etc/rc.local I added: /sbin/chccwdev -e 0.0.0240 mount -a to reread /etc/fstab I am looking for a way to make the /dev/dasdb(1) come online at ipl and therefore the /etc/fstab entry will mount the filesystem at ipl also. Any input greatly appreciated. Nelson Ducote IBM SSR New Orleans
