You can definitely reduce overhead on the VM layer by running multiple
applications on a single Linux guest. When you have a few applications
with a few dozen servers, it may make sense to have one appliction per

I'm wondering about this. I'm a z/OS person with some Linux knowledge.

If you're using the RPM (which Mark pointed out is the way to go), it
looks like you'll need to install the other compat-libstd package

libXp rpm. Here's the output of what each rpm provides (taken from RHEL

Hi Mark,
My task and problem is not: having to bring a device online, and yes, we are

different DASD and networking hardware)

I take it you are not under VM, which would make all of this fun
irrelevant because you can keep the same address virtually!
I think what you need to do is mkinitrd and zipl to another disk but
using a zipl.conf that has the appropriate dasd= parm.
That is still an option in 2.6 even though

You don't say whether you're running under VM or not, but if you are,
there is a much easier way to accomplish this task.
