Thanks again. It's not a big problem, other then the boot stopped sufficiently long for me to wonder what was going on, and read the 32 cpus detected message<G>.
A z990? A common thing with vendors is not to try out their software on a constrained shop. Perhaps you need a constrained LPAR (or VM guest) that is capped somewhere around 10 mips. Just to try things. After all, most of us don't run on idle engines (at least us VM types don't). There are always things running, somewhere<G>.

No, detecting 32 cpus is feature...the 30 second delay is not. I somehow overlooked the 30 second part in your first mail. Thanks for making me aware of that boot performance problem on a multiprise 7060. I never noticed it on an z990. I will see if we can get a boot performance fix for that in one of the next updates for the April 2004 stream and/or SLES9. cheers -- Mit freundlichen Gr��en / Best Regards / Un cordial saludo Christian Borntr�ger Linux Software Engineer zSeries Linux & Virtualization IBM Deutschland Entwicklung GmbH email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Tel +49 7031 16 1975 ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For LINUX-390 subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the message: INFO LINUX-390 or visit http://www.marist.edu/htbin/wlvindex?LINUX-390 ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For LINUX-390 subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the message: INFO LINUX-390 or visit http://www.marist.edu/htbin/wlvindex?LINUX-390
