Hi Rich, We have serius problems with OSA Fast Ethernet (10/100).The symptom is: *SNA/TCPIP osa port (OS390): stop *TCPIP osa port (vm-linux): stop. IBM said: Not use even port for all - OSA witch VM (Linux) and OS390 (TPCIP/SNA)-. They are not have a solution for this problem. No fix (microcode). Brgds.
