We are starting our Linux POC and all has been going well. Until I got
to the Hipersockets, that is.
We are trying to talk to two z/OS LPARs, one development and one
production. in our IFL
LPAR, z/VM 5.2 RSU 0701 and SLES9x SP3. POC is a Java app that gets
messages via
MQ Series and reformats into XML and queries a site on the web via https.
The initial test worked well with MQ talking over the OSAs out to our
internal network and
back in the other OSA (why don't we share them? Don't ask!). Now we want
to modify that
use a Hipersocket interface.
Initial:
z/OS -- OSA -- network -- OSA -- Linux (on vswitch)
Wanted:
z/OS -- Hipersockets -- Linux
Hipersockets were defined on CHPID 50 (addresses 5000-500F) .
xxx.yyy.zzz are the same for all the following addresses:
Both z/OS systems are v1.6. and have addresses xxx,yyy,zzz,101 and
xxx,yyy,zzz,102
(development and production, respectively) using addresses 500-5002. The
z/OS
systems can ping each other. I set up the z/VM guest to use 5004-5006
through
dedicate statements in the SYSTEM CONFIG and used yast to add configure
the interface
as xxx.yyy.zzz,103. All indications are that the interface is fine:

Any ideas as to why the SLES9x will not talk to z/OS? Any thing I should
look for, ask or z/OS network people, etc.?
