Thanks for the info - it worked great !! Alan Levy W: 718-403-8020 C: 347-401-4629 -----Original Message----- From: Linux on 390 Port [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Rich Smrcina Sent: Wednesday, April 26, 2006 10:36 AM To: [email protected] Subject: Re: Copying server to another IFL
Use: DEDICATE AB01 XY01 DEDICATE AB02 XY02 DEDICATE AB03 XY03 This way the new machine thinks it is using the old devices, but is actually using the new devices. You can get around this by using the VSwitch or by configuring all of your Linux machines to use the same 'virtual' device addresses and assigning the real devices in the directory.
