QETH_PORTNO=1 in /etc/sysconfig/hardware/hwcfg-qeth-bus-ccw-0.0.1200 was the trick.

It keeps coming up trying to talk to the first port (portno 0). I know the HW is good because it will work if I do: ifdown eth0 echo 0 > /sys/bus/ccwgroup/drivers/qeth/0.0.1200/online echo 1 > /sys/bus/ccwgroup/drivers/qeth/0.0.1200/portno echo 1 > /sys/bus/ccwgroup/drivers/qeth/0.0.1200/online ifup eth0 but that goes away when I reboot zLinux. It's not persistent. Here's /etc/sysconfig/network/ifcfg-qeth-bus-ccw-0.0.1200 BOOTPROTO='static' UNIQUE='' STARTMODE='auto' IPADDR='9.30.163.167' IPADDR_IPV6='fec8::9:30:163:167/64' NETMASK='255.255.255.128' NETWORK='' BROADCAST='' _nm_name='qeth-bus-ccw-0.0.1200' PORTNO=1 ETHTOOL_OPTIONS='' LLADDR='' MTU='' NAME='' REMOTE_IPADDR='' USERCONTROL='no' What am I missing?
