Hello Fellow Listers; In need of some help with z/VM and TCPIP for z/OS guest. Here's the backgroung:
1) When running 5 z/OS LPARs the z/OS systems use the same OSA address, such as 7D0 but have different IP addresses in their IP Parms. This works and has worked well for a long period of time here. 2) We now need to have three z/OS guest machines up and running under z/VM with full IP capability. My communication wiz guy has been in touch with IBM and has been told that you have to set the OSA up that way under z/VM too. How can I dedicate 7E0-7E2 to three guest at one time? It sounds like a communications disconnect to me, but what do I know. At current time, I have each z/OS guest with his own triplet of unique OSA addresses. Each one will work fine UNTIL they are all up and running, at which time, we start seeing "console hangs" and what appears to be machine lockups. Some times they will eventually clear themselves, sometimes not. And it rotates as to which z/OS guest system hangs. Thanks in advance. ********************************************************************************************** GDOL CONFIDENTIALITY NOTICE: This transmission may contain confidential information protected by state or federal law.
