Re: Z10 BC DS8700 Storage issue
Hi, Thanks for replying , Scott and Paolo. I am starting to understand the issue. My IOCDS looks like : CNTLUNIT CUNUMBR=1000,PATH=((CSS(0),20,22,23,30)),* UNITADD=((00,256)),CUADD=0,UNIT=1750 IODEVICE ADDRESS=(300,196),CUNUMBR=(1000),STADET=Y,UNIT=3390B And CNTLUNIT CUNUMBR=1100,PATH=((CSS(0),20,22,23,30)),* UNITADD=((00,256)),CUADD=1,UNIT=1750 IODEVICE ADDRESS=(1100,196),CUNUMBR=(1100),STADET=Y,UNIT=3390B I have asked for the csv reports from the DS8K for further analysis.

Re: Z10 BC DS8700 Storage issue
Srnivas, double check DS8700 Channel Paths and be sure they're ONLINE... If they are, check your IOCDS and verify that CHPs/CUs are assigned to your LPAR (if you are IPLing one...).

Re: Z10 BC DS8700 Storage issue
Hi, In the IOCDS , I have mentioned device address as (300,196) and (1100,196). But the Storage engineer has formatted the devices starting from 2100 instead of 1100. I think that should not be a problem. But I am not sure. Also , is there a power up sequence. Like should the DS8K be powered up before the Z10BC?

Re: Z10 BC DS8700 Storage issue
Srinivas, about power sequence: DS8700 must be up and running before you can use it That's obvious... Anyway, try to vary DS8700 CHPIDS off and on again and retry If the problem persist, maybe we need more elements to analyze it, like msgs, IOCDS infos and so on.
