Barry, > The /etc/sysconfig/hardware contains identical entries. Are they really identical?
I have a system with two interfaces connected to NICs at 600 and 700. The /etc/sysconfig/hardware configuration files are different: # cat /etc/*release SUSE Linux Enterprise Server 10 (s390x) VERSION = 10 PATCHLEVEL = 3 # cd /etc/sysconfig/hardware # diff *600 *700 9c9 < CCW_CHAN_IDS="0.0.0600 0.0.0601 0.0.0602" --- > CCW_CHAN_IDS="0.0.0700 0.0.0701 0.0.0702" Also, for reference, here are the ifcfg-* files: # cd ../network # diff *600 *700 4,8c4,8 < IPADDR="9.60.18.241" < NETMASK="255.255.255.128" < NETWORK="9.60.18.128" < BROADCAST="9.60.18.255" < _nm_name='qeth-bus-ccw-0.0.0600' --- > IPADDR="10.1.150.241" > NETMASK="255.255.0.0" > NETWORK="10.1.0.0" > BROADCAST="10.1.255.255" > _nm_name='qeth-bus-ccw-0.0.0700' Hope this helps.
