Because you attached your REAL device E007-E009 as VIRTUAL device 
addresses 0340-0342.

Using consistent virtual addresses on each server is a *GOOD THING*.  This 
permits you to have fewer changes between SLES guests.
You just attach different REAL devices to the guests as the same VIRTUAL 
addresses.  Linux only sees the same virtual device addresses, so the 
Linux configuration is the same for pretty much everything except the IP 
address and Hostname.

That way you take that same Golden Image, copy it to the next virtual 
guest server, only have to change the IP address and Hostname, and add 
whatever middleware it needs. The virtual OSA addresses are the same.

But you'd be far better off spending a little time researching VIRTUAL 
SWITCHes and using them instead of real OSA addresses.

Why doesn't it like my E000 and/or e007 response?

When I do a q osa, this is what I see on my system:

 q osa

OSA  E004 ATTACHED TO TCPIP    E004 DEVTYPE OSA         CHPID 00 OSD

OSA  E009 ATTACHED TO CLIENT   0342 DEVTYPE OSA         CHPID 00 OSD

Any help will be appreciated,

Thanks,
Alyce

It's not required, but it is a good idea to have somewhere central for
all the console logs on your system to go by default, rather than have
them scattered all over the spool. If you want to silence the message,
change the CONLOG on the CONSOLE statement in the directory entry to any
valid userid on your system, or remove it if you want the console logs
to end up in CLIENT's rdr.

> > CPU statements?

No. Most guests seem to feel healthier and more responsive if you have
more than one logical CPU, but it's not required or desirable in some
cases. Do note that there are some applications that don't build
properly in a UP system, so we put the extra statement in to try to
catch that. 

As Rich said, it's an example. Tailor it as you see fit. 19F and the
disks you plan to use to put the Linux system on are the important bits.
The rest is "as you like it".
