A HOWTO document on www.linuxvm.org describes how to use V-disk for swap. I followed the instruction as outlined on RedHat 7.2, but failed when issuing dasdfmt command: I received the following message:
dasdfmt -b 4096 -y -f /dev/dasdb dasdfmt: Unsupported disk type /dev/dasdb is not an ECKD disk! This disk type is not supported! Does this procedure only work on SuSe? is there a way to make work for RedHat? Thanks Abdel. Gharzita Pace University [
