(Off the top of my head without looking at the screens.)
You first need to use the HMC to create a valid IOCP. In the IOCP you will define an OSA port for ICC usage. Once you have performed a POR to bring in the new IOCP, you can then configure the ICC, including the IP address and port number, using the "OSA Specific Functions" on the HMC.

So an update from when I posted yesterday. Me and a friend have (after many hours last night) figured out how to reconfigure the IOCDS and create a new LPAR. We also got as far as being able to load over FTP, but that's about where we got because we are not sure how or where to get an SSH connection to the machine to continue. Also if I am installing Linux would I need 3270 OSC ports on the machine? I figured Linux wouldn't use the 3270 protocol but am I wrong? My friend also had a theory that you can use a 3270 console to access the LPAR directly without anything running on it to assist in an install, if this is true how do I know the IP address of the OSA card? All I can find is the MAC address. I've even preformed a network scan in the subnet to see if my router gave it an address and I just need to find it but nothing appears on the network that seems to be related to the machine. (Also note, the SE on this machine doesn't have a built in 3270 console sadly, its an older OS/2 SE that doesn't have this feature.) The real frustrating part is it seems 90% of the install docs for Linux speak of installing through something like z/OS or z/VM where you can define IP addresses and such and know exactly what is going on. Where as this is an install through the SE (HMC) which is a blind install almost. We've made a lot of progress, but there are still a few missing pieces to the puzzle. Also as for later plans for storage and such, I am still waiting for a few pieces to get here but I have an IBM 2108-G07 SAN Data Gateway that should give me FCP based SCSI storage to install onto once I figure out how to actually get an SSH into the Debian installer and actually complete the install. -Connor K ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to lists...@listserv.ua.edu with the message: INFO IBM-MAIN
