Hello,
We are planning to migrate some Sun server to a set of Linux/390 images
running under z/VM. But I have some unanswered questions about the HDS
9910 SAN box we are using. (not my specialty, so bare with me)
For the moment the HDS SAN is partitioned/formatted using the "Open E"
method. Apparently this is the required method for connecting to open
systems (UNIX, Windows,...)
But for s/390 the system needs a other method. Is this also true for
Linux/390 ? Probably yes because it uses a driver that talks to native
s/390 disk formats.
If we need to repartition, does this require we completly reformat our
SAN, or can this be done with keeping our current data (and without
backup) ?
And maybe anybody here has some other ideas, tips we need to look at ?
Thanks for your help,
Tim
