Thanks for the reply, We have Z9 processors, I however tried again not using OSI layer 2 support and it worked this time but only after varying the OSA chpid offline and on again, strange I know.
Anyway it works and I'm happy Thanks Leon Buitendag Senior Specialist: Systems Programming Data Centre: Numerus Cell: +2783 376 6721 Tel: +2712 336 0628 Fax: +2712 336 0606 E-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] -----Original Message----- From: Linux on 390 Port [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of John Schnitzler Jr Sent: 16 February 2007 04:01 PM To: [email protected] Subject: Re: SLES10 OSA setup problems >Hi to all. >I am currently trying to install SLES10 but have run into a problem with the >network setup as follows: >1 for OSA-2 OSA Express >1 for QDIO >1 for Ethernet >I then get a list of all my devices >I enter the Read channel, Write Channel, Data Channel and Portname >I then enter 1 to enable OSI layer 2 support and after entering this I get >the following message >qeth: Device 0.0.a100/0.0.a101/0.0.a102 is a OSD Express card (level:0845) >with link type OSD_1000 (portname:OSAA100) >qeth:Error in registering MAC address on device 0.0.a100:x200a >Any ideas. >SLES8 worked fine on the same OSA card >Leon Buitendag What type of processor are you running on?
