Even wwpn list shows as empty, we select in ESS zSeries(linux) as host
and enter manually wwpn of z10 port in shark configuration,
It´s start a configuration, but ends with error.

sharks configuration.

Hi
I´m trying to connect a z10 to a shark using FCP protocol, but without
success.
We did some tests that are describe below:
1 - Connect z10 to shark 800 sw2 adapter with both sides defined as
Ficon. Works fine
2 - Connect z10 to shark 800 sw2 adapter with both sides defined as FCP.
Direct connection, no switch envolved. Didn´t work. We aren´t able to
define open system storage in ESS Specialist. Seems that shark doesn´t
"see" FCP adapter in z10. After reading some material (redbooks) we
found information about that a direct connection didn´t work. Is
mandatory use a switch.
3 - Connect z10 to shark 800 sw2 adapter with both sides defined as FCP
and using an old IBM 2109-S16. Didn´t work. We aren´t able to define
open system storage in ESS Specialist. Seems that shark doesn´t "see"
FCP adapter in z10.
4 - Connect z10 to shark 800 sw2 adapter with both sides defined as FCP
and using an IBM 2005-B16. Didn´t work. We aren´t able to define open
system storage in ESS Specialist. Seems that shark doesn´t "see" FCP
adapter in z10.
5 - Connect z10 to DS4700 via FC adapter with z10 define as FCP and
storage defined as FC and using an old IBM 2109-S16. Didn´t work. We
aren´t able to access open dasd.
We checked microcode level for shark and seems to be ok. If I connect
shark or DS4700 to an intel server, we are able to access open dasd
without problems.
Since z10 with FCP access is new for us, any hint or tip about are welcome.
Thanks in advance.
