Hi Simon,

Alter the parameter SAPADDR=4, if you have other SWN active or defined
in our VTAM.
The SAPADDR=4 must be unique and when you tested it a time ago, it yet
was not defined in VTAM.

Assunto: PALNK when activating XCA for OSE/SNA

Hi,
A long time ago we tested our SNA connection
via OSE and it worked, but obviously something has changed.

Today we tried to bring up the XCA in VTAM and 
it fails every time.

The SNA ports in the OSA are defined in the OAT like this:
                               Image 0.2 (VMTEST  )
0A(B10A)  SNA       00
0B(B10B)  SNA       00

And when I do a GET OAT the output says:
0A(B10A)  SNA       00                                       S      ALL
0B(B10B)  SNA       00                                       S      ALL


The XCA definition in VTAM is this:
XSWTO    VBUILD TYPE=XCA
*
XSWTOP   PORT  ADAPNO=0,CUADDR=B10A,MEDIUM=CSMACD,SAPADDR=4,TIMER=90
*
XSWTOG   GROUP DIAL=YES,CALL=INOUT,DYNPU=YES
*
XSTOLL00 LINE  ANSWER=ON,ISTATUS=ACTIVE
XSTOLP00 PU    ISTATUS=ACTIVE
<same for 01, 02... 17, 18>
XSTOLL19 LINE  ANSWER=ON,ISTATUS=ACTIVE
XSTOLP19 PU    ISTATUS=ACTIVE

I attached the 0A port to VTAM:
 CP Q B10A
OSA  B10A ATTACHED TO VTAM     B10A
READY; T=0.01/0.01 19:13:28

and tried to activate the XCA:
V NET,ACT,ID=XSWTO,SCOPE=ALL
 IST097I VARY ACCEPTED
 IST093I XSWTO ACTIVE

But when I do a Display:
D NET,ID=XSWTO,SCOPE=ALL
 IST097I DISPLAY ACCEPTED
 IST075I NAME = XSWTO, TYPE = XCA MAJOR NODE
 IST486I STATUS= ACTIV, DESIRED STATE= ACTIV
 IST1021I MEDIUM=CSMA/CD,ADAPNO= 0,CUA=B10A,SNA SAP= 4
 IST654I I/O TRACE = OFF, BUFFER TRACE = OFF
 IST170I LINES:
 IST232I XSWOL00 , PALNK
 IST232I XSWOL01 , PALNK
<same for 02, 03, .... 17, 18>
 IST232I XSWOL19 , PALNK
 IST314I END

I have already tried resetting the channel (toggle standby from 
all LPARS in the HMC, and toggle online just where it is needed)
but that did not help at all.

So, does anyone see what the problem might be?
PLEASE?

Thanks very much!!
Shimon
