As I stated in my reply to your original question, you cannot share the same device numbers across LPARs. You can use different device numbers on the same OSA across LPARs. (Alan will correct me if I'm wrong.) You do know you have 240 available device numbers per OSA port, don't you?

Hi, I'm new to linux/390. I had mentioned before that I have problem with linux network connection. I am still dealing with the same problem. Is there anybody who shares devices between linux/390 and z/os lpars? I try to share the OSA device addresses, linux/390 says Device or Resource busy. (device is being shared between other 2 lpars) Did anybody have the same problem? I need advises from somebody who uses linux/390 native lpar mode with z/os. Thanks. inci ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For LINUX-390 subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the message: INFO LINUX-390 or visit http://www.marist.edu/htbin/wlvindex?LINUX-390
