All of them or none of them.  It is unaware of a "guest lan"  it sees the
subnet.  Whether real or virtual(ly real?) is irrelevant.

If it supports OSA, it doesn't matter.  And I believe SUSE 7 on (meaning all
versions produced for 390/z hardware) have OSA support.

Re: z/VM Guest LAN Setup Query !!






I don't believe this release supported guest lans.  CTC or IUCV
point-to-point connections only.

Subject: z/VM Guest LAN Setup Query !!


Hello,

 We are having a MP3000 mainframe. We have installed z/VM 4.3 on one of the
LPARs. The SuSE Linux 7.0 with kernel (2.2.16) is installed on z/VM.
 We are able to IPL the linux from z/VM. We are interested in setting up the
Guest LAN.
We have carried out the following steps:
1) Define a LAN

DEFINE LAN LNX OWNERID SYSTEM TYPE QDIO

2) Define a NIC Card for linux user

DEFINE NIC 0700 QDIO

3) Couplethe NIC card to the LAN

COUPLE 0700 TO SYSTEM LNX

All these steps are successfully carried out.

Now, when we IPL Linux,the channel are detected as shown below.

Detected device 0700 on subchannel 000A - PIM = 80, PAM = 80, POM = FF
Detected device 0701 on subchannel 000B - PIM = 80, PAM = 80, POM = FF
Detected device 0702 on subchannel 000C - PIM = 80, PAM = 80, POM = FF

Next, we have to load the qdio and qeth drivers in Linux.
We were able to load the qdio drivers but when we try to load the qeth
drivers , it gives the following error:

insmod qeth
Using /lib/modules/2.2.16/net/qeth.o
Jul  8 01:02:49 VMLNX kernel: loading qeth S/390 Gigabit Ethernet driver

Jul  8 01:02:49 VMLNX kernel: Trying to use card with devnos
0x700/0x701/0x702
Jul  8 01:02:49 VMLNX kernel: qeth: received an IDX TERMINATE on irq 0xA
with ca use code 0x22 -- use another portname
/lib/modules/2.2.16/net/qeth.o: init_module: Device or resource busy
Hint: this error can be caused by incorrect module parameters, including
invalid  IO or IRQ parameters Jul  8 01:02:49 VMLNX kernel: qeth: There were
problems in hard-setting up the card.
Can anybody explain the error in loading the driver and detailed steps to
configure the Guest LAN on MP3000.

Regards,
Neetu Jain
