That is an incorrect syntax, I suppose what happened to you is
that the driver tried to add a device at the address "de", ignoring
the rest "vice=xxx".
Since the devices were showing up at 7240, that was probably a
different problem.

Actually, the strings "device " and "range=" are simply ignored,
but only when written exactly like this. Doing

echo "add xxx-yyy" > /proc/dasd/devices

is fully sufficient. What a lovely interface...

This looks like your dasd devices could not be found by
the driver. Can you verify that the devices are present?
Try looking at the output of "#cp q v dasd" on the
3215 console or at the contents of /proc/subchannels.
