A "make clean" or "make mrproper" against the Linux kernel for S/390 doesn't quite
do the job. This patch, for 2.2.16, will make those commands clean up the

William,
If the previous OS such as OS/390 had the OSA defined to it the portname
will be specified by OS/390. Change your TCPIP defs for zVM to specify the
original portname from the previous or other OS sharing the adapter. If the
portnames match you can share the OSA adapter. I recently ran in
Hmm. I confess my changes to /etc/modules.conf included a portname in lower-case. I
can retry this with upper-case. I'll also try to give one path to the OSA adapter to
VM and one to Linux, both using the same pathname. Thanks for the idea. I'll report
back here with my results!

William,
Well, the "obvious" thing to try is have VM (or some other system) _specify_
a portname, so that can match that value (using all uppercase) on your
Linux/390 system. :)

The Linux systems are running under VM in an LPAR. Other nodes using the OSA adapters
are in separate LPARs. I've asked and I'm told that no other system explicitly
specifies a portname.
I wanted to check this assertion. So we took one of the "failing" OSA adapters and
gave it to TCP/IP on
Is the VM system in an LPAR? If so and another system uses the GB
ethernet adapter, which is IPLed before yours, then I believe that
system would determine what the portname is. Just a thought.

For reasons unknown we're suddenly having trouble using our OSA adapters. The problem

microcode. Here's a snip from the console log:

Hi John,
It's just a guess, but have you tried using lower case alpha's in your hex
addresses, i.e.:
noauto,0xEE00,0xEE01,0xEE02,portname:OSA1,eth0
becomes
noauto,0xee00,0xee01,0xee02,portname:osa1,eth0
I frequently find that nothing in upper case works in Linux (but that's not
always true, and
OK, I've looked at previous posts on this topic but can't put this
together so that it works.
There is no problem when I use SuSE 7.0, I simply specify the
control-read,write and data options with the portname option during the
initial ramdisk install and hey presto it works:
noauto,0xEE00,0xEE01
How can you tell where you're goin' if you don't know where you've been?
