is using and defined them for RSCS links and they connect fine. It must be something with how TCP/IP uses the Read and Write pairs instead of multiplexing them like RSCS does. We also know the TCP/IP's are physically seeing each other because activity on one end (pinging etc.) sets off the Units checks on the other end. Ron Greve

he VM TCP/IP in the non IFL LPAR should be able to communicate with a LINUX quest in the IFL LPAR. I think the ccw_chan_mode parm in SLES specifies the type of CTC link. I think "0" would correspond to BCTC. >CCW_CHAN_MODE="0" If we're still off base we are op
