First, I would like to help all the people who helped me on this forum and off-list. I appreciate it very much. Thank you gentlemen! For the record purposes the solution and full story: I had to set HIF (High Integrity Fabric) to YES. Note1, there is no such option in GUI (webtools), only CLI (configure - fabric parameters) Note2, it is relatively new option, it is available in FOS 7.4.2a, but not yet present in 7.2.1d Note3, HIF enables/disables support for FICON, despite all relevant parameters (PBR, DLS, IOD, IDID) are OK. Note4, HIF setting was automagically set to NO during FOS upgrade. Note5. All existing connections survived the (non-disruptive) upgrade because those settings are checked only during "handshaking" process and the machines were not POR-ed since the FOS upgrade. My recommendation: after any FOS change disable and re-enable some chpids attached to the switch. BTW: I wish I would have some button in webtools or command like "ficonsetall". -- Radoslaw Skorupka Lodz, Poland ====================================================================== Jeśli nie jesteś adresatem tej wiadomości: - powiadom nas o tym w mailu zwrotnym (dziękujemy!), - usuń trwale tę wiadomość (i wszystkie kopie, które wydrukowałeś lub zapisałeś na dysku).
