Re: Shared OS DASD

I am trying to build a Basevol/Guestvol Shared OS DASD system. It appears that the SuSE 9 system is different from SuSE 8. I have a bunch of SuSE 8 system up sharing the OS. Is there anything special to make the SuSE 9 work? I don't see why that would not work. Have'nt tried though. In case you're

As to /dev/3270/tub, believe me, devfs was the furthest thing from my mind. Here's what I was talking about. Consider the device /dev/tty. It exists to provide a path for the application to the current controlling tty. What would the application have to do (absent stdout/stderr) to

While I agree that xip2 is (really) great thing, what everyone recommending it's use is missing is this: Bill Scully went to great effort to document just how to set up a workable basevol/guestvol arrangement. No one has really done that for xip2. The documentation you point to is very

Bob, I don't see much running and if I try and start yast By chance, are you trying to start yast from a 3270 session? What am I missing? You probably want to use SSH sessions out of habit after the install. 3270 sessions are still handy for CP commands. If you have a Windows desktop, most

Dasdfmt and other potential block sizes

2005-08-10 Thread Nix, Robert P.
I've been letting the blocksize default to 4096 for dasdfmt, but I'm getting abuse from zOS types for not using half-track blocking, and the space I'm losing to IRGs. What are the possible values for the blocksize, and what are the pros and cons of changing away from the default of 4096?

Re: Dasdfmt and other potential block sizes

2005-08-10 Thread Fargusson.Alan
My understanding is that the block layer in Linux does not allow block sizes larger then the page size of the system. Therefore on Intel and zSeries hardware 4096 is the largest possible block size. I think this is the same for pSeries as well. If you could have a larger block size it would
