Mark,

Did you GRANT this z/OS?

Subject: Layer 2 to Layer 3

I have a Linux guest that I use as a DNS cache server for my z/VM, z/OS, and 
other linux guests.
Friday I migrated from z/VM 5.2 to z/VM 5.4 and changed the vswitch from layer 
3 to layer 2.  Since this change my z/OS can no longer use the linux guest as a 
DNS server any DNS query (NSLOOKUP) returns:
EZB3040E *** Can't find server name for address 199.44.xxx.xx: No response from 
server

I can ping the z/OS address from the Linux guest, and I can ping the Linux 
guest from z/OS, so I know that the connectivity is not messed up.
Another z/VM in a different LPAR using layer 3 vswitch can use the linux DNS 
server. It too uses the same OSA CHPID with different addresses dedicated to 
it's LPAR.

I might add that this same Linux guests is also an FTP server.  The z/OS system 
can connect to the FTP server either.

Hardware:
z9
z/OS 1.9 and z/VM 5.4 use the same OSA CHPID, just different address dedicated 
to different LPARs.
