dear list, 

could you tell me when /etc/modprobe.conf is used - 
besides when 
1. booting the system 
2. willingly submitting a modprobe command? 

Problem:
Can I modify modprobe.conf so that in contains the *wrong* DASD addresses for a 
while 
(this should happen for the sake of copying the system DASD as a whole so that 
the ready copy
contains the modified modprobe.conf for another LPAR with a different DASD 
config. 
As soon as the copy is ready I would switch modprobe.conf back to contain the 
proper DASD adresses again. 

This means "ruining" a config file for half an hour - what I don't know if 
modprobe.conf is being used by other routines in an already running system? 

Thanks 
Anna
