Mark, I think so. Now when I go in to Yast, Network Devices, Network Card, it shows Traditional Method with ifup as the management selection. If I look at the interfaces through there, they look correct. However, I can only seem to get one interface active at any given time. And it's not always, the same one. Usually, but...

I don't think your config files will be affected. After all, the main thing Network Manager does is control which interface is active at any given point in time. It's going to need those configuration files to be valid. I would say that all that is needed is to use the ifconfig command, not ifup or ifdown, and "route add default gw" to get your network back up, and then SSH in to run YaST to switch back to the traditional "netcontrol" management.

Re: OSA/Express Assistance
Hi Mark, Yes, I did. After the problem originally occurred. Both OSA interfaces were 'dead'. And I tried again after I reviewed the interface files after going through Ursula's procedures. After reboot, both were 'dead' again. I had to go through Ursula's procedures again to get it back. Right now, only one OSA interface is 'active', meaning that I can connect to it and it will answer a ping. The other is non-responsive. I'm not sure where to go next. When I look at the Network Device through Yast, everything looks correct. But there is something somewhere. I just haven't found it yet. Not knowing where to look, or what to look for, doesn't help much, either. Dave Dave Stuart Prin. Info.

The intent is that it will be used on things like laptops that have both Ethernet and wireless NICs, and cables get plugged and unplugged, etc. It's not the default on server installs for obvious reasons, but is still made available because a number of people do install SLES on such devices.

Re: OSA/Express Assistance
Dave, you can try to setup a qeth device manually at your HMC console using these steps: 1. Check with lscss, if the subchannel triplet (0.0., 0.0.xxxy, 0.0.xxxz) of your OSA-device is available. 2. Define the ccwgroup device with: echo 0.0.,0.0.xxxy,0.0.xxxz > /sys/bus/ccwgroup/drivers/qeth/group 3. Bring the device online: echo 1 > /sys/bus/ccwgroup/devices/0.0./online 4. Activate the network interface: ifconfig eth0 netmask Now you should be able to connect from your PC. Then you should check the SLES10 configuration files: /etc/sysconfig/hardware/hwcfg-qeth-bus-ccw-0.0. /etc/sysconfig/network/ifcfg-qeth-bus-ccw-0.0.

Re: SDK for SLES 11
Mark, Thanks, I think it is important to have as much as possible ported packages to s390x even they are not supported by Novell and might be delived on an as is base. I know from my work that we are always confronted with applications that exists out in the Internet and suddently we have to support them in our environment. And when I say, well that is nice but I need a lot of time to produce all the dependent modules, I guess this will not be really an convincing argument for the z/Series. I read in one of my journals that Novell supports the building of packages for software. However I don't have any details about that. Since I am not a developer but rather an system engineer, it is quite difficult for me to make soething which I could distribut on my images. So if there would be a kind of service that hels in building rpms it would be extremly interesting for me.

Re: Updated Fedora 11 hercules images available
Actually, you don't want KDE or Gnome running in z. That will be expensive. Depends on how you bill you CPU cycles :) Cordialement / Vriendelijke Groeten / Best Regards / Med Vänliga Hälsningar Tore Agblad Volvo Information Technology Infrastructure Mainframe Design & Development SE-405 08, Gothenburg Sweden E-mail: tore.agb...@volvo.com http://www.volvo.com/volvoit/global/en-gb/ From: Linux on 390 Port [linux-...@vm.marist.edu] On Behalf Of David Boyes [dbo...@sinenomine.net] Sent: Wednesday, July 22, 2009 03:20 To: LINUX-390@VM.MARIST.EDU Subject: Re: Updated Fedora 11 hercules images available DISPLAY=yourworkstation:0.0;export DISPLAY Gdm& Although you REALLY don't want to do this.

Sorry, it was Hercules Then you actually don't want to run KDE or Gnome it will be very slow ;) Cordialement / Vriendelijke Groeten / Best Regards / Med Vänliga Hälsningar Tore Agblad Volvo Information Technology Infrastructure Mainframe Design & Development SE-405 08, Gothenburg Sweden E-mail: tore.agb...@volvo.com http://www.volvo.com/volvoit/global/en-gb/ From: Linux on 390 Port [linux-...@vm.marist.edu] On Behalf Of David Boyes [dbo...@sinenomine.net] Sent: Wednesday, July 22, 2009 03:20 To: LINUX-390@VM.MARIST.EDU Subject: Re: Updated Fedora 11 hercules images available DISPLAY=yourworkstation:0.0;export DISPLAY Gdm& Although you REALLY don't want to do this.
