I am looking for some help with an HMC problem on a z9 system. I am helping install a z9 at a client who is about two hours away. I had gone to the client's previously and had set up the HMC and was creating an IOCDS for it, so the HMC and SEs were communicating. I set up a userid for myself with most powers so I could access the HMC remotely. The client's people subsequently went about configuring the network to allow me to access the HMC through a VPN. That works, but now the communication between the HMC and the z9 doesn't work. The z9's name (serial #) still shows under defined CPCs, but the icon is greyed out and when any attempt is made to access it (like single object operations), it indicates that the CPC is not communicating. I have tried to PING the SEs from the HMC (not working - times out). I have tried to PING the HMC from the primary SE (also times out). The HMC has one IP address that should correctly set it on the LAN with the SEs - 192.168.4.100 - the other IP address is the one I access the HMC from the Net. There must be something that I am missing, but I can't think of what it might be. Anyone have any suggestions?
