You probably have DFSMS installed on your system. The DGTSRVnn worker machines have a dummy mdisk at addresses x'500' and x'5FF', devtype 3380, and volid $$. These mdisks should be listed in the EXCLUDE section of DIRMAINT's EXTENT CONTROL. Jim Bohnsack Date:Tue, 7 Dec 2004 20:43:22

While the solution below probably works, I think the explanation of the problem is bogus. SMB and CIFS are two names for the same protocol. The fact that smbfs and cifs use the same port tells me that they are talking to the same server process. Sounds to me like there is a Linux bug,

FORCE may require you to give too many privileges to the virtual machine. You could use SIGNAL SHUTDOWN which is class C (it's class A also I know). You can also change the class of the command to restrict it to a class of its own that the stonith guy belongs to. -Original Message-
