Looks like I skipped the "directxa" step, thanks to all. -----Original Message----- From: Linux on 390 Port [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Andrew Westerfield Sent: Wednesday, March 11, 2015 3:42 PM To: [email protected] Subject: Re: Unable to get device online
Matt, Who has ownership of the LN4F85 volume? Maint? System? According to your system config entry for all LN* volumes, the volume should belong to SYSTEM if you restarted z/VM. Whenever I've gotten your same error, it's usually because I've formatted the volume under maint and forgot to reattach it to the system. Did you "directxa" after editing the USER DIRECT file?

We are running RHEL 5.5 on zvm, I am trying to get a additional mdisk online to extend a vgroup. This is a mod-27, I did these same steps last week for a new vgroup and it worked fine. Would like to mention I am very new to linux and at a loss what to try next. Thanks Matt Steps taken so far in vm; cpfmtxa - that appeared to run fine. xedit user direct and added mdisk. MDISK 207 3390 0001 32759 LN4F85 MR READ WRITE MULTIPLE There is a generic entry on the vm system config file for all LN/ volumes. Restart zvm - I understand the user direct can be dynamically added but that did not work the last time I went to add a mdisk so I did a restart. linux Restart the linux server. chccwdev -e 0207 Then get Device 0.0.0207 not found. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- 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 more information on Linux on System z, visit http://wiki.linuxvm.org/ DISCLAIMER: This email and any files transmitted with it are confidential and intended solely for the use of the individual or entity to whom they are addressed.
