Strange vswitch problem

2015-01-27 Thread Andrew Lemay
Hello, I have about 40 guests attached to a single vswitch and all but one are having a problem. test-09 keeps coming up as UNASSIGNED. This is z/VM V6.1.0 Has anyone ever seen this before? Adapter Owner: test-09 NIC: 8000.P00 Name: UNASSIGNED Type: QDIO 00: Porttype: Access 00

Hi Can you also attach the output of q vswitch vswitch_name access for this vswitch? Did you recently ipled your z/vm? Do you get any error messages on the guest console after logging in (that is piwer on the guest)? Thanks Offer Baruch On Jan 28, 2015 1:56 AM, Andrew Lemay and...@lemay.org

grant tcpip access to the vswitch set vswitch vsw1 grant tcpip - also add that to system profile to make it persistent - if you use RACF/VM, you will have to set permissions there - after logging on tcpip, you can have a look at the vswitch to see if the connection is ok: CP Q VSWITCH VSW1

You can't have NICDEF's using a VSWITCH with TCPIP and ATTACH: statements in the DTCPARMS file NICDEFS are used to connect a virtual device to the user and couple it to the VSWITCH. The VSWITCH is the only one that touches the Real devices not TCPIP in this case. ATTACH: is used when you want

why you configured two IP addresses from the same subnets? If that really is needed, I probably would setup two different TCPIP machines. The point of using a VSWITCH is to let it handle the physical OSAs and any failover. The guest needs only one interface per VLAN per VSWITCH that it is using

My configuration is a bit different and I have a second VSWITCH specifying OSA address 0A0 but is not defined in my TCPIP configuration. Or TCPIP's directory statement. It is defined in SYSTEM CONFIG and in Autolog1 profile exec. 0A0 is not the Primary OSA so maybe that's

attached to the TCP/IP stack. But you've probably already fixed that. The reason to attach the z/VM TCP/IP stack to the VSWITCH is to leverage the HA qualities of the VSWITCH with its ability to fail over to a second OSA card. Alan is right - if you're going to do this, the better model is to put

to see what device numbers you require. If you want TCPIP to use a VSWITCH, you will need NICDEFs to provide the connection to the VSWITCH, or you could use a :vnic. tag in SYSTEM DTCPARMS. If it's using device number F800, then you can have a NICDEF F800 to replace the OSA. You only need F800-F803
