The IBM "Linux for S/390 Device Drivers and Installation Commands" document, dated 18
July 2001, in Chapter Seven, "Linux for S/390 CTC/ESCON Device Driver", has Usage Note
2 under "Preparing the Connection" which reads:
Definitions on the remote side
Set up the TCP/IP on the remote side, as described in the reference manuals.
This will vary depending on which operating system is used on the remote side.
Note: It is important that you have IOBUFFERSIZE 32678 defined because the
LINUX for S/390 CTC driver works with 32k internally. This is configurable
for each device by writing the value to the buffersize file for that device
(proc/net/ctc/<devicename>/buffersize ), for example
echo 32768 >/proc/net/ctc/ctc0/buffersize
I'm not sure how this is accomplished. Logging on as root and issuing the command
doesn't work. Here's what I get:
LINUXWPS:/proc # echo 32768 >/proc/net/ctc/ctc0/buffersize
bash: /proc/net/ctc/ctc0/buffersize: No such file or directory
What is the correct technique for creating the appropriate directories and file?
