Might be of public interest... Hi Craig, Using SLES10 SP2 in /etc/sysconfig/hardware/hwcfg-qeth-bus-ccw-0.0.0c00: STARTMODE="auto" MODULE="qeth" MODULE_OPTIONS="" MODULE_UNLOAD="yes" SCRIPTUP="hwup-ccw" SCRIPTUP_ccw="hwup-ccw" SCRIPTUP_ccwgroup="hwup-qeth" SCRIPTDOWN="hwdown-ccw" CCW_CHAN_IDS="0.0.0c00 0.0.0c01 0.0.0c02" CCW_CHAN_NUM="3" CCW_CHAN_MODE="0" QETH_LAYER2_SUPPORT="1" QETH_OPTIONS="buffer_count=128" Three more of those, 1c00/02, 2c00/02, 3c00/02 In /etc/sysconfig/network/ifcfg-qeth-bus-ccw-0.0.0c00: BOOTPROTO="static" STARTMODE="onboot" LLADDR=02:00:00:02:03:96 IPADDR="" SLAVE='yes' MASTER='bond0' MTU='8992' _nm_name='qeth-bus-ccw-0.0.0c00' Three more of those, you get the picture. In /etc/sysconfig/network/ifcfg-bond0: BOOTPROTO="static" STARTMODE="onboot" IPADDR="10.2.3.150" NETMASK="255.255.255.0" NETWORK="10.2.3.0" BROADCAST="10.2.3.255" MTU='8992' BONDING_MASTER='yes' BONDING_MODULE_OPTS='mode=802.3ad miimon=500 xmit_hash_policy=layer2' BONDING_SLAVE0='qeth-bus-ccw-0.0.0c00' BONDING_SLAVE1='qeth-bus-ccw-0.0.1c00' BONDING_SLAVE2='qeth-bus-ccw-0.0.2c00' BONDING_SLAVE3='qeth-bus-ccw-0.0.3c00' And that is basically it.

We've never tried connecting them directly to a guest. So we're working on finding the network config parameters we need to use on the linux guest to connect the OSA devices and get the vlanid set correctly. If you have any hints or config parameters that you would be willing to share or manuals we should look into, please send them along. Hopefully tomorrow we will take a shot at this.
