OOPS dropped off the trailing "s"...
I believe the command is: echo -n "add device range=491" >> /proc/dasd/devices ----------------------------------- Jeremy Warren Sr. Systems Programmer KB Toy Stores mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]@kbtoys.com "Nix, Robert P." <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent by: Linux on 390 Port <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> 12/09/2004 08:59 AM Please respond to Linux on 390 Port To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] cc: Subject: [LINUX-390] Dynamically adding DASD... I'm missing some minor key point in this process... I allocated a new minidisk for a Linux image (SuSE SLES 8), and linked it into the virtual machine. I've tried CMS formatting it and not formatting it, and it appears to have the same problem. I go to /proc/dasd, and issue the command "echo "add devices range=491" > devices. Then I type "cat devices" and where I expected to see the new device is a line such as: None(none) at ( 94: 24) is dasdg (ro): unknown If I now add the device into zipl, and restart the image, the disk will be there w/ no problems. What am I doing wrong in the dynamic allocation? -- Robert P.
