I'll send you a drawing (in a private note) I once made for the network people here
2007/5/23, Anne Crabtree <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>:
OK, I apologize for being so dumb about this but it's really confusing! I am trying to set up a connection from 2nd level VM to first level VM and was using the virtual CTC to do so. The reason I am doing this is so that I can try to start TCPIP on 2nd level which I have not done yet. Once TCPIP on 2nd level is running, I wanted to start a Linux guest. On 2nd level TCPIP, I was going to define another vctc to connect to the linux on second level. All this is to verify that maintenance I put on 2nd Level VM will not affect Linux before moving that maintenance to first level where there are productional linuxes running... So now, I'm not exactly sure where I am in that process even after all this advice. I detached the vctc from an linux guest on first level that is not being used. I think it has been defined on 1st level to my second level VM (VMTEST). I just IPL'd VMTEST and issued the CP SEND CP VMTEST DEF CTCA 2030 (and same for 2031) If I query 2030 it says: CTCA 2030 FREE TCPIP is not running on 2nd level. I've never even tried to start it because I'm still trying to get verification from someone who knows TCP/IP (although he doesn't know VM) that I coded the IP addresses for 2nd level correctly. When you said : CP SEND CP VMTEST COUPLE 2030 guest2 vaddr2 I have no idea what to put for guest2 or even if I need it! And I can't attach to TCPIP there since it's not even running yet. I'm assuming what I've done so far means 2nd level is attached to 1st level though that virtual ctc but I wouldn't swear on it. I'm sure you can see my confusion. Anne D.
