It is strange. Rick types "lscss" and expects zLinux to give him the right
information. He gets

Device   Subchan.  DevType CU Type Use  PIM PAM POM  CHPIDs
----------------------------------------------------------------------
0.0.01B0 0.0.000A  3390/0C 3990/E9 yes  FF  FF  FF   444BA0B1 A1B06F4D

which is wrong. zLinux says "Yes, it is wrong, but nobody informed me and I
didn't care to inform myself."

Now Rich goes ahead and types "chchp -v 0 b1" which triggers zLinux to
inform itself and then, after "lscss", returns the right answer:

Device   Subchan.  DevType CU Type Use  PIM PAM POM  CHPIDs
----------------------------------------------------------------------
0.0.01B0 0.0.000A  3390/0C 3990/E9 yes  FF  E4  FF   444BA0B1 A1B06F4D

It is a rare case of humans having to instruct the computer how to deliver
the right answer and not the computer doing it by itself in the first
place.

I have been in the first row of that movie a long time ago and have given
up. Couldn't convince anybody to correct this. All the best, Rick, hope
your Service Request has more luck.
