Before you can collect records, you must authorize your z/VM® guest virtual machine and,
unless it was compiled into the kernel, load the device driver module.
About this task
This section provides information about the guest authorization
that is required for collecting records and about how to load the
device driver if it was compiled as a module.
Procedure
- Authorize the z/VM guest
virtual machine on which your Linux® instance runs to:
- Use the z/VM CP RECORDING
command.
- Connect to the IUCV services to be used: one or more of *LOGREC,
*ACCOUNT, and *SYMPTOM.
- If the z/VM recording
device driver was compiled as a separate module, load the vmlogrdr
module.
Use the
modprobe command to
ensure that any other required modules are loaded in the correct order:
# modprobe vmlogrdr
There are no kernel
or module parameters for the z/VM recording
device driver.
