Our z/VM folks have configured me a vdisk which I am trying to make use of
in my Guest Linux install. It seems that I was able to do this under
SLES7 however, am having difficulty doing it with SLES8. Perhaps I have
forgotten something along the way or something is misconfigured. Second

Eric,
You need to either have DIAG support built into your kernel, or you need to
modprobe dasd_diag_mod. You should probably make sure that dasd_diag_mod.o
is on your initrd by re-running mkinitrd.

What distribution are you using? With SuSE, they're completely different
media so it's not possible to install 32-bit on one system and 64-bit on the
other.

Eric,
I remember seeing some issues with the 64bit kernel and the diag driver. We
are just doing the equivalent of the following:
modprobe dasd_fba_mod
echo add device range=292 /proc/dasd/devices
mkswap /dev/dasdg
swapon /dev/dasdg
The bottom line is that the vdisk is an fba type device. If

Following the procedures below worked perfectly. I then proceeded to take
the dasd_fba_mod and add it to the /etc/sysconfig/kernel file and ran
mkinitrd to ensure that everything is there. I now have a swap device on

I saw that mentioned in the SuSE SP3 anno - something about a VM problem.

That's interesting. I installed my supposedly 32-bit CDs on a 64-bit
system and when I did my first ssh to start YaST, I checked the kernel
mode with uname and it came back s390x. The same CDs were used under
Flex (in ESA mode).

Shouldn't that be resize_reiserfs? It's there with SLES8.
But SLES is partial to reiserfs. I've used it on Intel
many times to grow them dynamically... even while being
heavily used... seemed to work.
