Hello,

I installed RD&T 9.1 on Opensuse 13.2 and everything works fine apart from TCP/IP connectivity that I try to add using the awsosa driver.

 

When I start the emulator I get these messages:

I added this to my devmap:

Running uimcheck ...

The UIM client is configured in local mode.

Local Serial Number... 4309
UIMCHECK: No local errors

 

 

eDMosa should be fine:

 

marcel@linux-njop:/z/zos-2.1-adcd> ls -l /usr/z1090/bin/eDMosa
-rwsr-xr-x 1 root root 1182656 Aug 31  2014 /usr/z1090/bin/eDMosa

 

What else could be wrong in my setup ?

 

Thanks in advance for any hints.

 

Regards,

Marcel

Marcel,

       We see this problem most often when the directory from which you are starting RD&T (in your case /z/zos-2.1-adcd) is not owned or modifiable by the Linux userid that is issuing the awsstart. Make sure your userid has permissions to the folder where you are starting RD&T.  

 

     I also see that when you ran z1090instcheck, one of the values is bad.

10. SUSE kernel.core_pattern is /corefiles/core-%e-%p-%t which is                       BAD

    This makes me think that you did not issue the /usr/z1090/bin/aws_bashrc command running under the userid that you wish to run RD&T with. We have seen customers on occasion incorrectly run this from userid root. If run from the userid where you intend to start RD&T, that command should set all values correctly. Run this command under the userid that will run RD&T, then perform the z1090instcheck. If the z1090instcheck shows everything as OK, then try awsstart from a folder that is modifiable by that userid. Let us know if you still have problems after that.
