Hello list we are running SLES8 (and SLES9) under zVM 4.4 and zVM 5.1. Last weekend we were in trouble and had to move a SLES8 image from a 9672 to a z890 (OSA Express). As all dasd devices were shared between the machines both zVM had the same definitions available.
The problem was to change the OSA definitions (lcs -> qeth) without a graphical terminal. Our solution was to just change two configuration files in /etc. This was done with *sed* on the 3270 terminal. Changes in *chandev.conf* (with new OSA addresses): noauto;lcs0,0x0e32,0x0e33,0,1 to noauto;qeth0,0x0e94,0x0e95,0x0e96;add_parms,0x10,0x0e94,0x0e96,portname:OSD01 Changes in *modules.conf*: alias eth0 lcs to alias eth0 qeth If you are able to use *vi* just edit the two files, stop the *old* image and restart on the new hardware. I hope, anyone can benefit from this hint.
