Hi Listers. This is one of those "I think it works this way but I want to verify it" type questions.
I have a z9BC box running z/OS 1.4. I have 2 OSA adapters defined to TCPIP and I need to change the IP address on one of them. It is used as a backup port so if I bounce the port I won't impact anybody. A section of my TCPIP.PROFILE looks like this: DEVICE GIGADEV0 MPCIPA LINK GIGA00 IPAQENET GIGADEV0 DEVICE GIGADEV1 MPCIPA LINK GIGA10 IPAQENET GIGADEV1 HOME 172.16.0.1 GIGA00 172.16.0.2 GIGA10 START GIGADEV0 START GIGADEV1 I have an OBEYFILE that looks like this: DEVICE GIGADEV0 MPCIPA LINK GIGA00 IPAQENET GIGADEV0 HOME 172.16.0.7 GIGA00 START GIGADEV0 This OBEYFILE only contains the configuration information for the port I want to change. I should be able to feed this OBEYFILE into TCPIP and get the IP address changed without impacting the other OSA port, right? If I don't put the unchanged information for the other port into the OBEYFILE, TCPIP will leave it alone, right? Also, do I need to feed the BEGINROUTES/ENDROUTES block into the OBEYFILE since that isn't changing either? Thanks in advance.
