If you are running your Linuxes under VM, you can get away with this. If you 
are running Linux in an LPAR, then you just handed the Linux guest the ability 
to overwrite your zOS sysres.

Definitely not a good idea. We limit the number of devices.

Subject: How do you configure your I/O?

Hi List,

We are having an internal debate here. The "official" recommendation for I/O
configuration for Linux on z is to limit access in the IODF to devices Linux
actually uses. Some don't want to take the time. So we are wondering if
everyone does this.

Feel free to respond off list.

Thanks, Frank
