We have a communication issue between Linux and awsosa z/D&T.
If we load one separate local instance with awsosa and z/OS 2.1 ADCD Z21H, then everything works correctly, and pings to the z/OS address from Linux and back are successful:

But if we use shared instance with shared awsosa and local member instance for z/OS, then we get the following problem:

For local member instance:

We also noticed that, unlike the previous version of z/D&T 13, there are no messages about the readiness of shared OSA devices in the local member instance log:

And also the absence of shared OSA devices in the report of the awsstat command for the local member instance ( previously it was SuSE and the z/D&T version 13.3) :
- old system:

- new system:

Unfortunately, we cannot avoid using shared OSA due to issues with configuring multiple instances…
Could you please have a look?
