I don't think it's related to reiserfs versus ext3. The YaST panels are a little ambiguous when it comes to using the term formatting. The panel where you activate and format your disks is equivalent to varying them online, and then running the dasdfmt command. The panel where you create

Tracing question

Please forgive the naivety of this question, but my knowledge of Linux is severely limited. Back in the good old days of VM and CMS, it was easy to load a program, locate it in storage, set a few CP trace traps within it, and then start it running. How can I do the same thing in Linux?

Here is the quagga.log, Thanks for looking at it. I can't understand why I'm getting the MTU errors.All other MTUs that I could check are set at 1400, as is linux. for reference. 185 is the vipa interface, the 51s are the eth interfaces connected through vswitches to OSA cards.

Hi, I tried to use gpg today to generate a pgp key on SLES9x. The process hangs while reading from /dev/random (which is lacking entropy). Hasn't this whole /dev/random (and /dev/urandom) thing been beaten to death? Does anyone else use gpg on s390x? Cheers, Arty

Use gdb to stop the program where you are interested. Get its address. Quit gdb. Go to the VM console: #CP TR I R address of the routine you are interested in (If you are in a virtual MP environment then prefix commands by #CP CPU ALL, e.g. #CP CPU ALL TR I R ...) Start the program. When you

Right, function is one thing, performance is something else. It may work, but not work well. What I think Rick and friends need to do is to ask EMC to investigate it. They can analyze it and make pretty graphs. Ask them specifically if you are seeing any device level write pendings. RAID
