My customer has installed a 3829 attached to PSF/6000. The 370 Channel
Emulator/A driver shows as loaded in the card but no slot numbers are
listed on the "Add a S/370 Channel-Attached Printer" panel when we try
to list them.
Does this indicate a hardware problem with the card?
Thanksą
A:
Have they tried multiple slots with the same result?
Can you tell me what model RS/6000 you're installing the card in?
I recall an early problem where if you had a two-frame RS/6000 (9xx),
the S/370 Channel Emulator/A adapter could only be placed in the first
frame. I don't know if that's still a limitation or not. If you do
have a dual frame RS/6000, try putting it in a slot in the first frame.
Also, make sure that they've obtain and applied the latest PTFs before
loading the device driver to make sure the latest driver is installed.
If they have an instance of PSF/6000 active for that printer queue,
it should be stopped using psfctl -dt before trying to
load the device driver.
Have you tried issuing the "sense" command with the queues down? If so,
what are the results?
