Can anyone provide any documentation or opinion on the use and management
of the OOM-Killer process on SUSE Linux SLES 10 SP1?

Not really. It's algorithms are hard-coded into the kernel. I'm not aware of
any way to
My experience is with the effects of the OOM killer. Perhaps with Linux
on a desktop it is ok as it may pick on non critical processes but in a
virtual machine server environment it represents a drastic out of
storage condition requiring immediate action. I have seen this a few
times on Oracle

Hi everyone,
Someone asked on IBM-MAIN about the tech conferences--sorry I should
have posted this sooner. My boo-boo.
Here are the dates for two upcoming IBM System z Technical Conferences
(renamed to Technical University).
Here's the link to the events calendar where you can find these

Hi all...
We're working with a customer that someone has suggested to them that as
we move their Oracle d/b from brand x to Linux on z, that we also move
the actual d/b from their old SAN box(es) to mainframe disk (3390
images). The catch is that the d/b is about 8TB, and to my rough math

Does Linux even support that many DASD devices? Does LVM?
I can't say for sure, but I can pretty much

or about 150 mod 54s, if I calculate right. That's still a very large
number, but much more manageable. That being said, it's possible that
a direct SAN connection would be faster - at least test it and see for
your application.
Regarding the max
The device drivers manual tells all, but I think the number is somewhere
north of 250,000 dasd devices.

Now that I think about it some more, I'm pretty sure
First, give up on mod 9's and do 54's for that stuff :)
Our biggest is about 5TB. It's about 110 mod 54's. It's divided into 6 file
systems on 6 different volume groups. (Not a DB, but just files).
We did adjust the boot time interval of fsck so that all 6 don't get fsck'd on
the same

Wow. That's way too many :)
Course 64K should be enough for anybody.
I hope we have bigger disk sizes before we need 250,000.
I'd think you'd have a 64K limit under z/VM.
That's still too many :)

That's enough to sway the sales guys...And alas, we only have mod 9s

Wow... what a amazing high number of dasds... Makes me crazy...
Some time ago I've seen a box with 400GB storage in 3390-3, and each dasd
was divided in 3. Linux loaded them all, but take some 30 minutes to boot.
But 8TB is a whole different figure... I guess your boot would take half a
day... If
