Josh, chatting with some developer, I got the following information: It looks like the Linux middle level scsi driver scsi_mod.o is not loaded. zfcp may not loaded into the kernel, either. Try the following: > lsmod (check output, see if scsi_mod and zfcp are there) >modprobe scsi_mod >modprobe

Re: Redhat 7.1, 7.2, 8.0, s390, s390x?

2003-01-28 Thread Christoph Arenz
As far as I know, RedHat 8.0 for s390 and s390x does not exist and in fact, in the matrix at http://www.redhat.com/download/mirror.html all links for s390 do not work because the URLs point to a non-existing 8.0 version. If you replace the 8.0 part in the URL with 7.2 (or 7.1?) things might work.

... did you run depmod -a to update the module dependency file? Otherwise modprobe will not have all the information it needs, but insmod should work already (if you provide the correct parameters...). Kind regards, Christoph "Kittendorf, Craig" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>@VM.MARIST.EDU> on 15.08.2002

Hmm, IIRC, it depends on whether you have configured your Ethernet card on the MP3000 to be DIX or IEEE 802.2 compliant - one MTU was then 1500, the other 1492 (though I don't remember which MTU where...). The Ethernet card can be configured on the OS/2 SE with mpts; the parameter is D for DIX or

Mark, this is what I found in some (internal?) documentation. According to this, the first LPAR that defines the portname sets the portname on the card. Linux is in this regard not different than other operating systems... On September 12, 2001 the following MCL's were released: Driver 38 fo

2002-03-13 Thread Christoph Arenz
Steve, out of curiosity --- what parameters did you define for the qeth driver - did you define a portname? IIRC, there was a OSA microcode change. With the new code the cards required a portname to be defined. If the card is shared then all sharing systems need to specify the same portname. Oth

Well, the basic reason is that the patches on developerworks are meant to be applied on an unchanged "vanilla" kernel as from http://www.kernel.org Every distributor patches the kernel in a way so that the patches on developerworks may or may not apply cleanly. Apart from applying, it is also th

Darren, it looks to me (from the device types 1731/1732) as your OSA card is configured as a QDIO device. If you are using a OSA Fast Ethernet card, it is a configuration option in the IOCDS whether the card will be running LCS or QDIO. Please check whether it is configured in the IOCDS as type

Hi, Just to let you know that RedHat and IBM are working closely together to provide the right levels of oco-modules fitting for the latest RedHat distribution (and yes, both sides see it as their responsibility to provide a working solution): Well, there seems to have been some synchronisatio
