Hi, We had a major incident at the weekend on one of our LPARS.
After the normal scheduled re-IPL of the LPAR we could not connect using the VIPA, but could use the physical addresses that relate to the OSA ports. Reloading the TCP/IP stack didn't fix the problem and eventually we had to close TCP/IP and inactivate the SNA major nodes (that use the OSA) to enable the OSA chps to be varied OFF/ON. This fixed the problem. We have no indication of any error - either in the syslog or TCPIP stc and there were no hardware errors on the HMC. I've searched IBM's database, but without any real info to go on, this has not provided any clues. Has anyone seen anything like this before?
