Howdy; I am trying to test migration from Layer 3 VSWITCH to Layer 2 with z/VM 5.2. I am not having any luck defining a layer 2 VSWITCH and am unsure what I could be doing wrong.
I get the following errors: define vswitch vlinux1 rdev f912 fd12 ethernet portname osadxvm1 osadxvm2 VSWITCH SYSTEM VLINUX1 is created Ready; HCPSWU2830I VSWITCH SYSTEM VLINUX1 status is devices attached.
