Does anyone on the list have advice, documentation or the like for installing SuSE SLES8 31-bit on a zSeries z800 under z/VM for DB2 ?
At present we have SLES8 64-bit installed and running a number of instances under z/VM on an IFL with no problem. I have been asked to install DB2 under a SuSE Linux instance on our system; DB2 will only run under the 31-bit version of SLES8, according to the IBM documentation.
I have contacted SuSE and received a evaluation copy of SLES8 31-bit, however the same media is used for the 31-bit as the 64-bit. So I am confused/stumped as how to get a 31-bit install accomplished at this time.
Is there some file/flag/setting I'm missing, or is there a larger environmental change that needs to be made to the IFL or z/VM perhaps?
I have sent a request to SuSE support but I am still waiting for a response so I thought I would post here as well.
Any help would be greatly appreciated; thanks in advance,
George Rester
