You where asking about the disk setup, here is our for SLES11 SP2. I tried to setup according to a redbook, to be prepared for shared readonly disks. Not a good idea. Instead he current solution looks like this (not at all like the first try):
disk0 / 351 MB disk1 /boot 35 MB disk2 swap vdisk 64 MB disk3 swap vdisk 64 MB disk4 swap 386 MB disk5 LVM 7 GB ( /home /opt /root /srv /usr /var ) disk6 /tmp 1 GB disk7 LVM 2GB /own_std_software plus some linked disks with WAS on. If you add /etc as a logical volume into the disk5 LVM I guess this is a good start for sharing as readonly / and /boot Cordialement / Vriendelijke Groeten / Best Regards / Med Vänliga Hälsningar Tore Agblad Volvo Information Technology Infrastructure Mainframe Design & Development SE-405 08, Gothenburg Sweden E-mail: [email protected] http://www.volvo.com/volvoit/global/en-gb/ ________________________________________ From: Linux on 390 Port [[email protected]] On Behalf Of Burton, Randy [[email protected]] Sent: Friday, June 26, 2009 14:31 To: [email protected] Subject: Re: Mounting root fs of one instance to another instance to make repairs Dave Jones wrote: >>Yes, it is possible to have a zLinux guest access another guest's FCP based disk files, >>but it's a bit more of a hassle....which is why I always suggest that things like >>the "/", "/etc", "/usr", and "/boot" all be allocated on 3390 DASD devices. >>Leave the really big Linux file systems (e.g., Oracle databases) to the FCP disk. I agree - and I'm curious about what people are doing with "standard" file system layouts for zLinux - are most people doing something similar to this: Disk 1: all the system stuff, on 390 disk: / /bin /boot /etc /lib /lib64 /opt /root /sbin /sys Disk 2: standard "data" kind of stuff, also on 390 disk: /var /usr /home /tmp Disk 3: /swap (also on 390 disk) Disk 4: /data (all the really big stuff goes here, on FCP) Randy Burton ---------------------------------------------------------------------- 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
