Good morning - I'm trying to add a new dasd to my Linux (SuSE) system. What I did was: -add the line : MDISK 0204 3390 0001 3338 VMLX05 MR ALL SOME FEW into my Linux CMS user's USER DIRECT definition.
- Format the device using cpfmtxa z/VM utility. - CMS format 204 c - IPL my Linux system. - check the devices: cat /proc/dasd/devices 0201(ECKD) at ( 94: 0) is dasda : active at blocksize: 4096, 581040 blocks , 2269 MB 0202(ECKD) at ( 94: 4) is dasdb : active at blocksize: 4096, 600840 blocks , 2347 MB 0203(none) at ( 94: 8) is dasdc : unknown - define dasdd: mknod /dev/dasdd b 94 12 - Then I got the message: mknod: `/dev/dasdd': File exists - try to format to create partitions: linuxdev:~ # dasdfmt -f /dev/dasdd -b 4096 -p dasdfmt -f /dev/dasdd -b 4096 -p dasd: No device registered as (94:12) dasdfmt: Unable to open device /dev/dasdd: No such device What am I doing wrong or missing???
