This is during install of sles8.
I do the load and the dasd shows up in the window.

I go to another ssh to format and get these results...

I still think this has something to do with the RAMAC  3990-13 controllers
and older RAMAC B23 dasd.

I do not see any disk addrs  in the /proc/subchannels...

We're going to wait a week or two until this client cuts over their z800 to
production, at which time it will
have access to a newer RVA....
Then we'll give it another go....

Dave, is this an install or adding dasd after the install? I have done both
with SLES8 on RAMAC (STK) with no problems as well as Shark.

The usual suspects are:

- during the install, did you "load" the dasd before going to next?


after install:
- have you added the devices to your zipl.conf and done the zipl?
- do you use cio_ignore and the volumes you want are in the ignore list?
- if not in the zipl.conf list, did you try varying them on with
      echo "set device rang=xxx-yyy on" >> /proc/dasd/devices"

- if they're not in /proc/subchannels then they could be in th cio_ignore
list or not genned.
