This note from the message manual is worth noting: 

DISPLAY TCPIP,,OSAINFO is limited to OSA-Express3 ethernet features in QDIO

Hi list,

I have a couple questions about commands that can be run from the console.

First of all, is there a console command that can be used to display the MAC 
address of an OSA port?


You can view it from HMC, I don't know any z/OS command for that.



Second, is there a console command to ping an IP address out an OSA port?


Again, HMC utility. Caution: OSA ICC port is *NOT* managed/used by TCPIP 
stack of z/OS image. For example you can use it with TCPIP shut down. 
From z/OS point of view it looks more like channel attached 3174.

Oh, BTW: the ICC port is ping-able even when z/OS is not started.



I scanned the manuals and didn't see anything for either of these.  Here's the 
situation.  We're trying to bring up a new LPAR on a remote machine.  TCP/IP 
comes up, and it activates 1 of the 2 OSA ports we're supposed to be using.  
But we can't ping into the LPAR, and can't find any command that we could run 
from the console to see if we can ping out.  Also, we are looking for the MAC 
address of the 2 OSA ports to see if the switch is even seeing them.

As I said, ping to OSC is independent from z/OS and it's TCPIP.
BTW: you have to define OSA-ICC sessions! Did you do that? Are you sure 
about the definitions?




As far as the HMC issue is, this is a z196 machine with a bunch of OSA cards in 
it - 12 to be exact.  But if I go to the HMC, and look at the OSA advanced 
facility screen, only 5 OSAs show up on that screen.  Shouldn't all the OSA 
cards/ports show up on the HMC OSA ADV FAC screen?


I suspect IOCP/IODF mismatch. In normal scenario OSA Advanced Facilities 
should show all PCHIDs available, including OSE, OSD, OSC ones (I've 
never used OSN, OSM, OSX).

To get the OSA MAC address, use the following MVS command:

   DISPLAY TCPIP,,OSAINFO


For PING, there is console command that uses EZACMD. Example:

   %%EZACMD 'ping -v w3.ibm.com'

See the Comm Server manual "IP
Sys Admin Commands" for details about using these two commands.


Note: From reading the manual, it looks like you will need to do some 
configuration work before you can use EXACMD.

If you have NETVIEW, and have activated the console interface for it,
you can ping thru it.

%ping xxx

where % is the NETVIEW command character.

or

F cnmname,ping xxx

where cnmname is the name of your NETVIEW.

Scott,

Couldn't get to TSO.  All we had was the MVS console session thru the HMC.

We found the issue.  We are using 2 port/chpid OSA cards and I had forgotten 
the PORTNUM=1 command in the VTAM TRLE so my attempts to talk TCP/IP were going 
to lala-land.

Thanks.

Rex,

How are the machines connected, I saw OSA but , router ?  A lot of routers have 
ping turned off.
Secondly, Ping can be used via TSO, no problem , also Traceroute ..

The command:

I don't know of a way to ping from the console offhand, but
there may be one.

I would expect that the HMC would show all OSAs, but I only
have a z1BC with 4 cards so I can't say for sure what how
that many cards would be shown.

Re: A couple questions about z/OS consoles and TCPIP commands (and a potential HMC issue)

Rex,

How are the machines connected, I saw OSA but , router ?  A lot of routers have 
ping turned off.
Secondly, Ping can be used via TSO, no problem , also Traceroute ..
