Saturday, I was in to install my new IOCDS for Linux with a CTC definition so I can
communicate with my Linux Lpar from my production TCPIP. The devices on one side of
the connection, the one defined as a CNC Chpid, do not come up online. Here are my
IOCDS definitions:
CHPID PATH=(04),SHARED,
PARTITION=((LINUX1,PROD,TEST),(LINUX1,PROD,TEST)),
TYPE=CNC
CHPID PATH=(05),SHARED,
PARTITION=((LINUX1,PROD,TEST),(LINUX1,PROD,TEST)),
TYPE=CTC
CHPID PATH=(06),SHARED,PARTITION=((PROD,TEST),(PROD,TEST)),
TYPE=CNC
CNTLUNIT CUNUMBR=0D00,PATH=(04),UNITADD=((00,008)),CUADD=0,
UNIT=SCTC
CNTLUNIT CUNUMBR=0E00,PATH=(05),UNITADD=((00,008)),CUADD=0,
UNIT=SCTC
IODEVICE ADDRESS=(D00,008),CUNUMBR=(0D00),STADET=Y,UNIT=SCTC
IODEVICE ADDRESS=(E00,008),CUNUMBR=(0E00),STADET=Y,
PARTITION=(LINUX1,PROD,TEST),UNIT=SCTC
The 8 IODEVICEs starting at E00 come up online, or I should say can be varied online.
The devices at D00 will not come up online. If I issue V E00,ONLINE I get the
following:
RESPONSE=PROD
IEE103I UNIT 0D00 NOT BROUGHT ONLINE
IEE763I NAME= IECVIOPM CODE= 0000000400000000
IOS551I NO PATHS PHYSICALLY AVAILABLE
IEE764I END OF IEE103I RELATED MESSAGES
Why won't the E00 devices come up online. Before I installed the new IOCDS, I went
into the back of our MP3000-H50 and plugged an Escon cable between Chpids 04 and 05.
Hopefully someone knows if my coding is correct, or why the devices defined don't come
up online. Maybe this is normal. I don't have my Linux1 Lpar running. We don't have
VM.
I did notice that the E00 devices have the PARTITION keyword, and the D00 devices
don't. I didn't notice that before today when I looked at the IOCP deck I generated
on Friday. I don't think that should have anything to do with it, because both Chpid
04 and 05 have the PARTITION keyword for all Lpars.
