| Subject: Testing a second OSA-E card
|
|
|
>-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|
We recently upgraded our 9672 G6 (with an OSA-2 card) to a z900 (with two
OSA-E cards). I'm testing a SuSE Linux 2.2.16 distribution and currently
using
one of the OSA-Es in non-qdio mode. Everything is working fine just like
with the 9672.
I would like to try the other OSA-E (which is genned for qdio). I've look
through some of the redbooks and search the archives and I wasn't real sure
of the
command sequence to get Linux talking to OSA-E on at least a temporary
basis. Would the sequence be something like:
insmod qdio
insmod qeth qeth1,0x1500,0x1501,0x1502,portname=TESTPORT [1500
is the device number]
ifconfig eth1 xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx netmask xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx
Thanks,
