If you are new to VM, then there is another important point you need to be aware of. The virtual machine's console device can be presented either as a 3215 (line-mode) or as a 3270 (full-screen). There's a third option, but to give details would go beyond what I can say with confidence.
You want "conmode=3270" but you also want
TERM CONMODE 3270
You need for both VM and Linux to agree that your virtual console is working like a 3270.
Actually, Linux will switch to TERM CONMODE 3270 automagically at IPL if it knows its console is supposed to be a 3270.
Hunh, though.
Maybe that's what's going wrong with /proc/subchannels.
In the directory entry, it's a 3215. I don't do a TERM CONMODE 3270 before IPLing Linux, but I do have conmode=3270 in parmline.
When I log in, it's a 3215 (in CMS). Then I IPL and it becomes a 3270 (I know this because I can run ned on it)...but maybe /proc/subchannels still thinks it's a 3215?
