>From "B"
# vmcp link "A" 100 1100 mr ( assuming 100 is instance A's root disk )
# chccwdev -e 0.0.1100
# mkdir /Aroot
# lsdasd ( to determine /dev/dasd? )
# mount /dev/dasd? /Aroot
Then you can either # cd /Aroot/etc
Or
# chroot /Aroot
# cd /etc
After fixing:
# /umount /Aroot
# chccwdev -d 0.0.1100
# vmcp detach 1100
You should be able to bring up "A".
Hope this is what you're looking for.

Subject: Mounting root fs of one instance to another instance to make repairs
Under vm 5.3 both instances are suse sles10.
Some one edited the /etc/inittab on instance A.
How can we mount instance a's root fs to instance b so as to fix the inittab?
Or, is there a better way?
Thanks for any help.
