Virtual MAC (VMAC) was specified on the LINK statement for this device but the OSA-Express adapter microcode level does not support assigning Virtual MAC addresses. TCP/IP could not assign a VMAC address for this device during device activation.
Device activation fails.
Contact the system programmer.
Either install a level of OSA-Express microcode that supports the virtual MAC function or remove the VMAC parameter from the LINK statement. Use the VTAM® DISPLAY TRL command to determine the currently installed OSA-Express Licensed Internal Code (LIC) level. See the information about the DISPLAY TRL command in z/OS Communications Server: SNA Operation for more information. See the 2094DEVICE Preventive Service Planning (PSP) bucket and the 2096DEVICE Preventive Service Planning (PSP) bucket for the OSA-Express LIC levels required for VMAC support. See the information about OSA-Express Virtual MAC (VMAC) routing or workload balancing in z/OS Communications Server: IP Configuration Guide for information about the networking affects of configuring with and without VMAC addresses.
