Hello Guys,

I have something to go up automatically an interface OSA from Guest Lan 
Hipersocket, in Debian on System z.

I changed /etc/network/interfaces and put the IP configuration of the new 
interface (hsi0). It also created the file 
/etc/sysconfig/hardware/config-ccw-0.0.0800 with the addresses of the 
device and interface name. 
Ex:
CCWGROUP_CHANS=(0.0.0800 0.0.0801 0.0.0802)
INTERFACE_NAME=(hsi0)

When I give lsqeth  command, the device appears, but no device name:

Device name                     :
---------------------------------------------
       card_type               : HiperSockets
       cdev0                   : 0.0.0800
       cdev1                   : 0.0.0801
       cdev2                   : 0.0.0802
       chpid                   : 00
       online                  : 0
       portname                : no portname required
       portno                  : 0
       route4                  : no
       route6                  : no
       checksumming            : sw checksumming
       state                   : DOWN
       priority_queueing       : always queue 2
       fake_ll                 : 0
       fake_broadcast          : 0
       buffer_count            : 16
       add_hhlen               : 0
       layer2                  : 0
       large_send              : no

I tried to search for something on the interface that already "up" 
automatically, but did not find anything significant. I wonder if anyone 
has solved this problem.

I know I can put a clause in the pre-up /etc/network/interfaces and a 
script with "echo 1> /sys/devices/qeth/0.0.0800/online", but I would like 
to know if there is one less way to do this craft.

Thanks,

Best Regards, 


Fernando Gieseler
