If you are mounting your Service root at /Service, then mount this one at /Service/var/wbem. Run your apply checks, you should have nothing going there anyway. Don’t worry about the symbolic. When you mount it later at IPL or when you put this filesystem into service and the correct location it will still resolve to /var/wbem. Look in the manuals, but I haven’t been mounting that filesystem for applying service for a long time. Pretty sure Serverpack sent it along to make a running system.

Thank David, I was attempting to create a separate directory/mountpoint and mount my target version to the new location.. which is when i get the 79 EINVAL, which refers to a root of an already mounted file system.. doesnt seem to like anything i attempt. Never thought about making a copy of it somehwere else.. since my /var is symbolic for /SYSTEM.. i wonder if i copy the contents into /SERVICE/SYSTEM/var/wbem/ logs and repository subdirectories.. then if there was maintenance applied.. when i IPL back to target to test maintenance.. copy the updated back to the real target file. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to [email protected] with the message: INFO IBM-MAIN This e-mail transmission contains information that is confidential and may be privileged.
