I am running Linux under z/vm. Maybe I don't care if the devices connect to my os config? That's where the problem pops up. It actually let me define them, it just won't let me connect them to the os config. Opinions?

If I want to access storage on a FCP device from the linux IFL, what, specifically, do I have to add to HCD on the z/OS side? (just channel paths?) What, specifically, so I have to add to SYSTEM CONFIG on the z/VM side? (EDEVICE statements?) Does anyone know if any of the SHARE sessions (in Anaheim) would help me address this? Anne D.
