Check to insure that your z/VM system is included in the access list for the CHPID attached to the control unit defined to the 1B00-1B0F devices.

I did a ?VARY OFF SUB 1B00-1B0F?. That command worked. Then I did a ?SET RDEV 1B00-1B0F TYPE 3278?. That command worked. Then I did a ?VARY ON SUB 1B00-1B0F? and it worked. Then I did a ?VARY ON 1B00? and got the following message: HCPCPN6283I Device 1B00 cannot be varied online because no channel path is available. I am sure that there is no 3174 plugged in. Once it gets plugged in, I should be able to vary on the addresses. Is that correct ?

Is there anywhere else, autolog2 maybe?, where you did set set rdev ?

From: The IBM z/VM Operating System [mailto:ib...@listserv.uark.edu] On Behalf Of Daniel Allen Sent: Wednesday, August 04, 2010 3:13 PM To: IBMVM@LISTSERV.UARK.EDU Subject: [IBMVM] IODF question We build and activate our IODF using z/OS HCD. z/VM 5.3 and 5.4 recognize the change. In our z/OS IODF, we have addresses 1B00-1B0F as 3278-2 devices. However, according to z/VM 5.4, addresses 1B00-1B0F are DASD devices. Last weekend, we did a POR (Power On Reset). Is there something in z/VM 5.4 that does not allow certain addresses to be 3278-2 devices ?
