I doubt the problem is with your guest definitions.  I would imagine that
you're seeing network problems due to general performance problems of
running a Linux/390 install under a second level VM.

Subject: NFS pb while using OSA Gigabit at 2nd level of VM
Importance: High


I'm trying to install different distributions of Linux, using NFS
installation mode.
I'm using an OSA Gigabit card, dedicated to my LPAR.
I've no problem while installing a Linux Guest (bot SuSE and RedHat 2.4)
under my first level of VM.
Now, if I want to install the Linux Guest under a 2nd level of VM (VM under
VM), even with dedicated devices, I've problems:
    -with SuSE: I just have very poor performances on the OSA card, but I'm
able to go up to the end of installation process
    -with RedHat: I lose the connection, in most of the cases in the middle
of install process, with NFS error messages:
            "nfs: task xxxx can't get a request slot"

Does anybody have an idea what might be wrong in the VM guest definitions?
'sounds like some USER DIRECT bad definitions... any CP class missing? or
any OPTION to set or remove (such as MIH)?

Thks.


Amicalement/Best Regards...
