My guess is that you copied your existing TCPIP profile for your VSWITCH
CONTROLLERS .. It is a case of too much information. The profiles for the
controllers is very simple.
The only entry you NEED in their profile is VSWITCH CONTROLLER ON...
Here is what my profiles for the controllers look like.
NOTRACE OSD
INFORM
TCPMAINT MAINT
ENDINFORM
ASSORTEDPARMS
PERMITTEDUSERSONLY
VMDUMP
ENDASSORTEDPARMS
OBEY
TCPMAINT MAINT
ENDOBEY
VSWITCH CONTROLLER ON
A note: The way I do it is to leave the profiles on TCPMAINT's 198 disk and
name them VSWCTRL1 TCPIP and VSWCTRL2 TCPIP.

Subject: VSWITCH initial startup
i am attempting to set up a new VSWITCH.
i followed the instructions in the pdf "z/VM VSWITCH with failover"
(with cursory glances at Alan Admarks presentation on
"HA and automatic network failover using VSWITCH")
so, per the book, i have two VSWITCH controllers in USER DIRECT : VSWCTRL1 &
VSWCTRL2
with appropriate links to TCPMAINT and their own 191 disks, etc.
i've logged on to them and formated their 191 A disks and copied over
TCPIP MESSAGE
PROFILE TCPERROR
VMSES PARTCAT
PROFILE EXEC
from TCPIP's 191 disk and set up PROFILE TCPIP on their A disk
with VSWITCH CONTROLLER ON specified.
i've added the controllers to TCPMAINT's SYSTEM DCTPARMS:
:nick.VSWCTRL1 :type.server :class.stack :exit.VSWCTRL
:nick.VSWCTRL2 :type.server :class.stack :exit.VSWCTRL
I have defined the VSWITCH:
define vswitch vsw1 rdev 500 1000
then the fun begins.
when i log on to VSWCTRL1 , it tries to do a COUPLE.
i cannot figure out what is causing this to happen:
DMSACP723I D (198) R/O
DMSACP723I E (591) R/O
DMSACP723I F (592) R/O
Ready; T=0.01/0.01 18:01:10
DTCRUN1022I Console log will be sent to user TCPMAINT
18:01:10 DTCRUN1026I TCPRUNXT EXEC (SETUP) returned ":Owner.MAINT"
18:01:10 DMSCPY721I Copy VSWCTRL1 TCPIP D1 to PROFILE TCPIP A1 (old file)
18:01:10 DTCRUN1022I Console log will be sent to user MAINT
18:01:10 CTCA 0D09 DEFINED
18:01:10 HCPCPL058E CTCA 0674 busy on SP4
18:01:10 DTCRUN1001W "CP COUPLE D09 SP4 0674" failed with return code 58
18:01:10 DTCRUN1026I TCPRUNXT EXEC (BEGIN) returned ":Owner.MAINT"
18:01:10 DTCRUN1021R To cancel TCP/IP Stack startup, type any non-blank
characte
r and
18:01:10 press ENTER. To continue startup, just press ENTER.
the COUPLE is one that we use on TCPIP to route IP traffic from one of our
VSEs
why is VSWCTRL1 trying to COUPLE to my VSE?
