Bug#451230: linux-image-2.6-s390 / qeth - HSI-interface doesn't come up after reboot
severity 451230 normal tags 451230 moreinfo s390 never had automatic setup of devices. Please show your configuration. The debian installer sets up a configuration in /etc/sysconfig/hardware which lists all hardware devices which are used during the installation. Bastian --- Our HSI-NIC is integrated in the path /etc/sysconfig/hardware with config-ccw-0.0.0800. The only content in this file is: CCWGROUP_CHANS=(0.0.0800 0.0.0801 0.0.0802) Is this correct that the file has only one line? Excursion: == Sorry, we didn't describe our environment sufficiently. We running our Linux servers under Z/VM in different LPARs. The NICs and other hardware (DASDs) are defined in Z/VM for every guest (Linux). The physical hardware adapters so are mapped in virtual addresses. We aren't running Linux natively on a LPAR. We use these Linux-servers in a productive environment. At maintenance work (for example by a power on reset) we load the Linux guests from one LPAR (which will be maintained) to another LPAR. So we have the need that it works well. In SLES9 the HSI-NIC comes up while rebooting the linux-server by IPL from the Z/VM an we have our network connectivity. But we aren't happy about SLES10 and so we are looking for an alternative distribution. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe. Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Bug#451230: linux-image-2.6-s390 / qeth - HSI-interface doesn't come up after reboot
Package: linux-image-2.6-s390 Version: 2.6.18 Severity: grave Hello together, we downloaded Debian4.0 and Debian4.0R1 and detected a bug with the network-interface. This bug exists in both releases. We use it on zSeries [architecture is s390]. The problem: If we reboot the system, the HSI network-interface won't automatically come up. We have to set them up manually in z/VM with echo 1 /sys/bus/ccwgroup/drivers/qeth/VIRTUAL_ADR_OF_DEVICE/online and modify the default-route, IP-address of the network-interface and reload the ssh daemon. Now we can connect again with putty. Our solution is a workaround: = We append /etc/init.d/network with the echo command at following position: ### END INIT INFO PATH=/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/sbin:/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin ### Our workaround echo 1 /sys/bus/ccwgroup/drivers/qeth/VIRTUAL_ADR_OF_DEVICE/online [ -x /sbin/ifup ] || exit 0 Now the qeth Device comes up at (re)boot automatically and we can connect with putty to the server. Our question: = Is it possible to fix this problem? We use a lot of z/Linux servers with more than one network-interface and our workaround is not very efficient ;-) Thanks a lot!
