Isn't it 5.2 that you are provided with running vswitch controllers out of the box - no instructions necessary -just bring them up?

What release of z/vm are you running? I think we should simplify - get rid of the VSWCTRL exec first of all. Remove the :exit.VSWCTRL statement from SYSTEM DTCPARMS. As long as you the files VSWCTRL1 TCPIP and VSWCTRL2 on TCPMAINT 198 when those machines are IPLed they will find the right files. The doc you reference goes back to zvm42 and indeed the search order for locating the correct profile to use was different. In zvm520 onwards (maybe zvm510??) you can use the name of the machine as a profile name. Try that.
