Is the OSA port set up correctly?

I spent many happy hours trying to start an OSA port a couple of years
ago until I discovered that the port was set up as Token Ring, not
Ethernet. The reason?  There was a little wrap plug in the T/R port...

I took the T/R wrap plug out, put the Ethernet one (in the Ethernet
socket!), disabled the port from the hardware console and then went
through the set-up again (sorry, but I don't recall the exact details),
and hey presto, a working Ethernet connection.

You didn't say what type of OSA card you have - obviously if it's not
the type that supports different LANs, this may not help...

Regards,

Roy Harrop

Hi, Augie.

According to the IBM z/VM 5.4 TCP/IP Messages and Codes
manual (online edition available here:
http://publibz.boulder.ibm.com/cgi-bin/bookmgr_OS390/BOOKS/HCSK4B31/CCON
TENTS?SHELF=hcsh2aa1&DN=GC24-6124-04&DT=20081125150345)
, the E080 return code signifies:

 A LAN connection could not be made, possibly for one of the
 following reasons:

    * The cable might not be present.

    * The LAN might not be functioning.

    * The port might have been disabled.

Have you verified that the OSA card is enabled, and has a
cable plugged into?

Hope this helps.

DJ
