Mike, I actually have the following set up shown below:
IDENTITY LNXADMIN PASSWORD 256M 1G BG INCLUDE LNXDFLT BUILD ON zVM1 USING SUBCONFIG LNXADM-1 BUILD ON zVM2 USING SUBCONFIG LNXADM-2 BUILD ON zVM3 USING SUBCONFIG LNXADM-3 BUILD ON zVM4 USING SUBCONFIG LNXADM-4 OPTION LNKNOPAS SUBCONFIG LNXADM-1 MDISK 0100 3390 0001 10016 VM1091 MR PASSWORD PASSWORD PASSWORD MDISK 0101 3390 0521 9496 VM1090 MR PASSWORD PASSWORD PASSWORD SUBCONFIG LNXADM-2 MDISK 0100 3390 0001 10016 VM1525 MR PASSWORD PASSWORD PASSWORD MDISK 0101 3390 0521 9496 VM1526 MR PASSWORD PASSWORD PASSWORD SUBCONFIG LNXADM-3 MDISK 0100 3390 0001 10016 VM149E MR PASSWORD PASSWORD PASSWORD MDISK 0101 3390 0521 9496 VM149F MR PASSWORD PASSWORD PASSWORD SUBCONFIG LNXADM-4 MDISK 0100 3390 0001 10016 VM1527 MR PASSWORD PASSWORD PASSWORD MDISK 0101 3390 0521 9496 VM1528 MR PASSWORD PASSWORD PASSWORD It works great to use the zVM1 to do cloning and I can create zLinux z Images from the zVM1 LPAR. But I am unable to use zVM2, zVM3 and zVM4 to do any cloning at all. I also cloned MDISK 100 (VM1091) of zVM1 to VM1525, VM149E and VM1527 and MDISK 101 (VM1090) of zVM1 to VM1526, VM149F and VM1528. Understood that the MISK 101 started at 521 because 1 to 520 were used by LNXMAINT for two virtual mode A and D for SWAPGEN, RH65GOLD and LNXADMIN parameters and configurations and so on. I have been communicating with IBM Link to figure how to create Linux on System z from zVM2, zVM3 and zVM4 and I am kind of out of resource. Since you were the Master of the RedBook and you still are. Could you please show and tell me what went wrong? The reason that I am looking for this particular configuration is because I want to configure zLinux images from a particular LPARs to pick up particular range of predefined mac prefix.

Use caution before using links/attachments. Ray, Yes. The idea here is to have one administrative Linux per LPAR (SSI member). With an IDENTITY, all four can/should be running at the same time. We had 100 and 101 minidisks in an earlier Cookbook so as to have two 3390-3s. In the current cookbook we split a 3390-9 in half which may not make the most sense, but it still works. If you have the disk space, you might want to make both 100 and 101 full mod-9s to leave a little more room for growth. -Mike On Fri, Nov 14, 2014 at 1:28 PM, Chu, Raymond <[email protected]> wrote: > Hi, > > I have already configured a z/VM SSI cluster with 4 LPARs.
