Mark, Thanks for the response. We figured it out, we were trying the auto config, and it was trying to assign the same portname to both GbE adapters. We did a manual config for just one of the adapters, and it is now working.

Configuring OSA-E adapters in QDIO mode Dave, It may well be that these new adapters are at the microcode level that requires a portname to be specified. Just what parameters are you passing to the install scripts? Mark Post -----Original Message----- From: Dave Jousma [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Monday, December 02, 2002 12:09 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: HELP! Configuring OSA-E adapters in QDIO mode All, Trying without much success in getting past the initial install of SuSe Linux 7.0. Successfully did a LOAD from CD on the HMC into an LPAR. Going through the network configuration, it sees my OSA-express adapters, and I tell it to auto config them, but it comes back with error: No such device, and the network definition fails. Any ideas? These are new OSA adapters, they may have never been configured.
