We are getting a connection problem with our first LINUX guest on z/VM
5.3. I am new to z/VM and do not know networking. I created a TCP/IP stack
that appears to be working through an OSA card (9F00). We were able to FTP
the SUSE Linux install. I created a Virtual Switch that uses another OSA
device (9E00). When we start up the Linux virtual machine, it apears to
connect to the Virtual Switch. When I do a "q vswitch details", I see a
line like the following.
Adapter Connections:
Adaptor Owner : NOVSTART NIC: 0600 Name: UNASSIGNED
We are not able to ping outside the Linux virtual machine or connect to
the virtual machine. I am including an "ifconfig -a" and "q vswitch
details" command output (without the Linux virtual machine being active) .
I do not know what to do next to resolve the problem. Any help from the
list would be appreciated.
ifconfig -a
