Hi Team,

We are unable to start the RD&T with OSA and TUN interface. While starting the system the getting the below error.

Could you please let us know what is the problem causing this error.

our devicemap file is a below.

Some questions:

- Have you run the z1090instcheck command to verify your installation?

- What version of RD&T are you trying to start?

- Are you using a RD&T USB hardware key that matches your RD&T version?

- How many CPU cores do you have on your machine?

- How many CPs is your RD&T licensed for?

- Have you run the find_io command to verify that the OSA device numbers you are trying to use are actually defined and available on your machine?

Hi John,

1.Yes we have run z1090instcheck and verified. Everything was ok.

2.RD&T 9 we are trying to start

3.yes we are you using a RD&T USB hardware key that matches your RD&T version

4. It looks like only one core is available. we had asked the team to add more core to the system.

5. we have 3CPs RD&T licenesed

6.yes we have run the find_io command.

According to the previously supplied information and the results from the awsstart command, you are trying to start RD&T with a zPDT (STG) key.  This is not allowed in V9.0.  STG supplied keys are used to start zPDT.  Rational supplied keys are used to start RD&T.  You will need to fix this before you can proceed.  When you have a matching key, this:  

z1090, version 1-4.45.26.01, build date - 05/24/13 for Linux on RedHat 64bit

will look like this:

z1091, version 1-4.45.26.01, build date - 05/24/13 for Linux on RedHat 64bit

Please also fix the number of cpus in your devmap to match the number that you actually have available on your machine.  Note, even a 1 CP RD&T instance must be run on a 2 core physical processors.  You cannot run on a single core box and expect any sort of performance.

Your find_io command reports that device A0 is DOWN.  You will need to investigate the cause of this.

These concern me and I will follow up with development to get some clarification on them.

Hi John,

We had changed the ownership of user and group for  /usr/z1090. then we are able to start the system with OSA and TUN interface.

We are customizing the tcpip. we are encountering the below error on PORTB

TCPIP Profile:

Could you please let us know, what could you be the problem.

Regards,

Sathya

This error is mot often caused because of a mismatch between the devmap, TCPIP, and VTAM definitions.  Make sure all names and definitions match each other.

Hello,

Try

[root@rdt ~]# chown 0:0 /usr/z1090/bin/eDMosa
[root@rdt ~]# chmod 4755 /usr/z1090/bin/eDMosa

When i have this problem (AWSSTA052E Initialization of OSA failed, RC=-4
) , this commands was the solution...
