Don't use the FULL parameter to backup VM volumes from OS/390 or z/OS.
Instead use the TRACKS parameter. For example:
DUMP -
TRACKS(0,0,3338,14) -
ADMINISTRATOR -
CPVOLUME -
INDDNAME(DISK) -
OUTDDNAME(TAPE) -
CANCELERROR -
OPTIMIZE(4)

Hi Scott,
I think you may be running into problems because the Debian kernel is
compiled with the DEVFS option turned on. You need to reference your
dasd with /dev/dasd/ where is the device address instead of
/dev/dasda /dev/dasdb etc.

I did exactly that on a R63 instead of a R83. The Linux distro I used back
then was SUSE 7.0 with the 2.2.16 kernel. Not sure what you can expect with
one of the newer distros. It seemed to work ok.

There are many things to complain about with Unix System Services, but

I had a very similar problem that occurred every night on my syslog server.
I posted the problem here a few months ago and no one responded with any

You don't want to treat the volumes like OS/390 or z/OS volumes by using the

all the tracks.

Gordon,
You should only need to restart the ctc0 interface. Logon to the Linux
system console and:
ifdown ctc0
ifup ctc0
You may want to consider connecting your Linux servers to the VM TCPIP stack

This sounds similar to one of my early experiences. Do you have a 3174

My guess is that your kernel is taking an oops! May I suggest you spool
your Linux console somewhere with the CP command "SPOOL CONSOLE * START"
before you IPL Linux. After your Linux dies again, review the console log
that is left in your reader with the RDRLIST & PEEK commands.

Many people including myself ran into this very same problem. The short
answer is that you need to use something other than a Windows based PC ftp
server to serve up the SuSE CDs.
Linux is using some ftp extensions that Windows doesn't have. Try using a

I think DISKMAP is ignorant of volumes which are online, but, don't have any
mini disks on them. It simply reads the USER DIRECT file and creates a map
from it. So if there's not at least one mini disk on a volume, a map for
the volume is not created.

Have you tried running VMFINFO from MAINT? You should be able to determine

I guess I was wondering if you could achieve something similar to what
OS/390, z/OS, and z/VM do with paging to expanded storage versus DASD.
Obviously expanded storage is faster for paging, but once a page has been
unreferenced for a while you would not want to keep it there but move it to
dasd.
I was further wondering what linux would do if you specified both a V-DISK
and a DASD device as swap files. Is linux smart enough to prefer the faster
device, and only use the slower one when it needs too?
