I'm having a performance problem. I was asked to install SLES 9 64-bit into an LPAR. To create the server I got my hands on the needed DASD and conducted the install of Linux under z/VM. The virtual hardware configuration (DASD and OSA addresses) were specified as would be used on the LPAR.

Whether or not you limit the DASD range in zipl.conf it will still do a store subchannel and sense id for each of the devices it can find for the active IOCDS. If it's trying to do sense id (maybe even read device characteristics, I can't recall) for heavily used devices on other LPARs you could
