Hi Alan,
Yes, you are correct:
In the HOME address specification I had the z/OS HiperSockets HOME
address below the VIPA HOME address. I do not have the z/OS's IP
address defined in the z/VM TCP/IP configuration. Sorry for the
confusion and thanks for clearing it up.

With the help of IBM support we were able to figure out my problem. It
turns out that we have a Source VIPA defined and active on the z/OS
LPAR. In the HOME address specifications I had the z/VM HOME address
below the VIPA HOME address. When I Pinged VM it wanted to respond
back
via the VIPA HOME IP address which was different than the HOME IP
address that I had defined for the z/OS LPAR in TCPIP in VM. As a
simple
correction I changed the order of the HOME addresses on the z/OS side
putting the VM HOME IP address above the VIPA HOME IP address then the
PING was successful.
I'm glad you got it figured out, but your post is confusing to me. I
don't understand why you have z/VM's HOME address defined in you z/OS
config, and vice versa. I think you meant In the HOME address
specification I had the z/OS HiperSocket HOME address below the VIPA
HOME
address. Likewise, you would not define z/OS's IP addresses in the
z/VM
TCP/IP config.
But, yes, SourceVIPA can mess things up if you're not running dynamic
routing daemons everywhere.
