Does your zHCP have ABCDG privileges or a custom set that includes
privilege C (SEND)?  What rnetboot does, is it invokes "vmcp send ipl
$addr", where $addr is what you supplied.

I'm trying to create my first Linux guest using autoyast.

slesxcat:~ # nodeset slesxc01 install
slesxc01: Setting up networking on VSWTVPN (layer:3 | DHCP:0)
slesxc01: Purging reader... Done
slesxc01: Punching kernel to reader... Done

slesxc01: Punching parm to reader... Done

slesxc01: Punching initrd to reader... Done

slesxc01: Kernel, parm, and initrd punched to reader.  Ready for boot.
slesxcat:~ # rnetboot slesxc01 ipl=00c
slesxc01: Booting from 00c... Done

I see that the guest does logon to vm.  But I waited serveral mins and
could not connect via VNC.  So I used a 3270 session and logged onto the
guest.  I see that it was in a VM READ.  I manually IPL 00C and the install
started as expected.

Can you tell me what I should be looking for to determine why it did not
IPL 00C when it was autologed?
