I am installing 1.11 and somehow have managed to get both /etc and /var mounted as directories and no symbolic links: /SYSTEM/etc mountpoint = / on OMVS.Z1B.ROOT (empty) /etc/ mountpoint = /etc on OMVS.Z1B.ETC /var/ mountpoint = /var on OMVS.Z1B.VAR
Based on my 1.9 system, the mounts should be: /etc SYML to mountpoint /SYSTEM/etc on OMVS.Z1B.ETC (some copied 1.9 and ServerPac files) /var/ SYML to mountpoint /SYSTEM/var on OMVS.Z1B.VAR and /SYSTEM/etc mountpoint /SYSTEM/etc on OMVS.Z1B.ETC /SYSTEM/var/ mountpoint /SYSTEM/var on OMVS.Z1B.VAR I have tried to UNMOUNT both /etc and /var to run the BPXISJCL executing the BPXISETS REXX exec to change the DIR to SYML. I get error message: "The symlink defined by /etc [/var] already exists as a different file type. Please correct and resubmit." I have searched the archives and read _UNIX System Services User's Guide_ and _UNIX System Services Command Reference_ and the _ABCs of z/OS System Programming: Volume 9_ Chapters 2-5 to no avail. Do I need to delete and recreate these directories? If so, how do I make sure I get the correct DIR mountpoints and the SYML pointers? ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to [email protected] with the message: GET IBM-MAIN INFO Search the archives at http://bama.ua.edu/archives/ibm-main.html
