Hi All,

just wanted to let you know the second adapter registered as 'unknown' in my system. I (a) swapped positions from C04 to C06, and (b) exchanged the 2849 for another 2849 I had laying around. Now it showed up properly as another CMN0x. Thanks for all the help!

Regards,

Rene.

Sounds like you have that part working then.

Hello Jack,

I already have a working LAN console, and performed a scratch LIC and OS
install from there.
Did you mean I have to perform some additional settings
to 'release' the second 2849 for other use?
I already configured the console IP, and enabled console takeover.

Rene.

Once you have your cards working, you will need to go into SST/DST to
configure your lan console setups.

Roberto, Larry,

thanks for your replies!

except for the location (my 2849's are at C05 and C04) my setup is the
same (okay, and I'm at V5R4).
If the 2849 is indeed similar to the 4838 (I recall seeing that both
cards
request the same resources from the IOP) than I also think it *should*
work.
Thanks for your input!

Rene.

A little handy, internal ibm-use only app that i got my hands on says
that:
2793 c07
2849 c06
2849 c05
disk ctl c01

is a valid config for v5r2 9406-800 and in fact, THAT was the config i
had
on one of my 800's when i was just starting to play with LAN Console.
So, just do that wrkhdwrsc and find the CMN0X, create the line
description,
the ip address and voila, network is running...

Best Regards,

This may not be technically supported but I wouldn't worry about the
configuration. The 2838/4838 are just older cards with exact capability
as
the 2849 and they are physically bigger by a bit.

Take a look in wrkhdwrsc and see what you can find in each slot. Look
for
possibles an "occupied slot" or a failed card.

Hi all,

recently I finally managed to perform a scratch install (LIC and OS)
of
my 9406-800.
I swapped the Twinax IOA for another 2849 network card; I had no
Twinax
console in my possession, so I changed the system to LAN console.
Now I had 1 #2849 for the LAN console, and another #2849 for the
regular
network.

Last time I IPL'd and wanted to configure the regular network, I
didn't
recall seeing an unconfigured network card; I thought it was my
inexperience with i5/OS, so I decided to start Googling.

I soon found a lot of contradicting information. My System Planning
Tool
(legacy) told me that I couldn't use two 2849's with the embedded IOP,
but
a combination of one 2849 and one 4838 was valid (or two 4838's). Other
(IBM) documents told me that any combination of 2849's and/or 4838's
(up
to
a maximum of two cards) was ok.

Does someone have some experience with this? Can two 2849's work with
the embedded IOP in my 9406-800? I don't mind getting another network
card
(4838) if needed, but I'd like to be sure that in the end I'm not stuck
with a load of cards I can't use :)

Regards,

Rene,
Holland.
