Hi 

Yes, it has been confirmed that RedHat z/Linux 4.6 does not support FCP
PTP Topology at any level of the Kernel. 

Thanks for all the responses.

Yup.  We got that same error on a SLES9 GA system.  We switched to a
SLES9 SP3
system and the FCP driver worked there.  So it looks like PtP FCP
support is
a fairly recent addition.  Haven't tried it with RHEL yet.
