The SLES9 guest is down when I am trying to install SLES10, and the SLES10 guest is the only one trying to use the IP address at that time. (I only brought up the SLES9 guest to make sure somebody could use that ip address.)
The parmfile for the SLES10 guest contains the following to define the VSWITCH: InstNetDev=OSA OsaInterface=qdio OsaMedium=eth Layer2=0 ReadChannel=0.0.7000 WriteChannel=0.0.7001 DataChannel=0.0.7002 Portname=OSAE400 The SLES10 guest gets connected to the VSWITCH, and the E005 error (IP address already registered) shows up in the VSWCTL1 console. Are there other details that would be helpful?

That's not possible. (Ok it's POSSIBLE to do it but you will get unsatisfactory results for trying). I presume the SLES9 guest is down when you're trying to do this SLES10 guest? If not, and you're using the same IP address I'd expect the behavior you stated. -J Stephanie A Maginn <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent by: Linux on 390 Port <LINUX-390@VM.MARIST.EDU> To LINUX-390@VM.MARIST.EDU cc 11/22/2006 02:37 PM Subject IP Address Already Registered - SUSE SLES10 Please respond to Linux on 390 Port <LINUX-390@VM.MARIST.EDU> I am new to Linux, trying to install SLES10 under z/VM 5.1. I am trying to use a VSWITCH. I IPL the kernel and initrd from my virtual rdr and (eventually) get: HCPIPN2833E Error 'E005'X adding IP address nn.nnn.nn.nnn for VSWITCH SYSTEM SWITCH01. HCPIPN2833E IP address is already registered. After a pause, it says *** Could not find the SUSE Linux Enterprise Server 10 Installation Source. Activating manual setup program. I have been able to use the IP address for SLES9 and for a VM guest. Only SLES10 is having this error. Has anybody else run into this with SLES10? I hope it is an error in my PARMFILE. The guest is authorized to the VSWITCH, and does show up in a Q VSWITCH DETAILS. The OSA is at latest MCL level. z/VM 5.1 is at 0601. Thanks, Steph Maginn VM Technical Computer Sciences Corp.
