RH 7.2 in an LPAR. Currently connected to network via CTC to z/OS gateway. We'd like to try out the OSA-Express card with the linux LPAR. It's in QDIO mode, and is being used by one other z/OS LPAR right now.
According to the Large Scale Linux Deployment redbook (sg246824), on page 79-80 (97-98 in the pdf file), with EMIF two LPARs can use the same device channels to communicate to the OSA adapter. Is there any reason NOT to do this? Also, at the IBM OCO RH page (http://www10.software.ibm.com/developerworks/opensource/linux390/specia l_oco_rh_2.4.shtml) It states: delete the old module dependencies using: rm -f /lib/modules/2.4.9-38*/modules.dep Do the dependencies get rebuilt on the insmod qeth or some other time? After I'm done trying it out, removing the OCO modules and deleting the modules.dep files will effectively have me back where I was before (or should I restore the old modules.dep files)?
