Hi, I wanted to add DASDs (2200-2209) to my system. Well, first off all I added the DASDs in the zipl.conf. After my reboot I get the following:
# cat /proc/dasd/devices 0200(ECKD) at ( 94: 0) is dasda : active at blocksize: 4096, 36000 blocks, 140 MB 0201(ECKD) at ( 94: 4) is dasdb : active at blocksize: 4096, 558000 blocks, 2179 MB 2200(none) at ( 94: 8) is dasdc : unknown 2201(none) at ( 94: 12) is dasdd : unknown 2202(none) at ( 94: 16) is dasde : unknown 2203(none) at ( 94: 20) is dasdf : unknown 2204(none) at ( 94: 24) is dasdg : unknown 2205(none) at ( 94: 28) is dasdh : unknown 2206(none) at ( 94: 32) is dasdi : unknown 2207(none) at ( 94: 36) is dasdj : unknown 2208(none) at ( 94: 40) is dasdk : unknown 2209(none) at ( 94: 44) is dasdl : unknown It seems to be ok. The DASDs are available to the system, but I cannot access them. When I tried to format them I got the following: # dasdfmt -f /dev/dasdc -b 4096 dasdfmt: Unable to open device /dev/dasdc: No such device Do I have to add the devices somewhere else? THX, - Tim -
