Thank you Viktor!! Right you are, I should have used chzdev instead of znetconf -a. The devices are displaying as Pers YES with the lszdev command. I removed the devices from the /etc/dasd.conf file (temporarily added them there so they wouldn't be ignored), rebooted and they are active.

Upon reboot, the kernel command line determines the devices seen by the operating system. In a next step the configured devices are been freed from the ignore list. In your example the console (0009), the boot disk (0150) and two QETH devices (0300-0302, 0700-0702) are removed from the ignore list. If you want 1000-1002 and 2000-2002 to be persistently available you should configure them, e.g. using chzdev(8). -- Kind Regards, Viktor ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For LINUX-390 subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to lists...@vm.marist.edu with the message: INFO LINUX-390 or visit https://urldefense.com/v3/__http://www2.marist.edu/htbin/wlvindex?LINUX-390__;!!IfVdvpvC!E5pGzxyHs8IlBGAvXegBzz1l_wiY6yiJRGV440a0u2bNoZlHzzmIOXihb-rW$ The information transmitted is intended only for the person or entity to which it is addressed and may contain CONFIDENTIAL material.
