This works because listing the contents of the reader is done via a DIAG call rather than Linux prodding the device itself. > I try to bring rdr online > [root@wil-zvmdb01 dev]# chccwdev -e 000c > Device 0.0.000c not found This is because RedHat defaults to ignoring all devices via the cio_ignore blacklist and only enabling those that are explicitly removed from the blacklist. To do this dynamically, do: # cio_ignore -r 00c You can then bring it online with chccwdev. You can ensure that the device is not ignored at the next boot by modifying the cio_ignore parameter in the kernel command line in /etc/zipl.conf and rerunning zipl. For example, you could change cio_ignore=all,!0.0.0009 to cio_ignore=all,!0.0.0009,!0.0.000c or getting rid of the cio_ignore blacklist and allowing all the virtual machine's devices to be seen. --Malcolm -- Malcolm Beattie Mainframe Systems and Software Business, Europe IBM UK ---------------------------------------------------------------------- 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 ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For more information on Linux on System z, visit http://wiki.linuxvm.org/
