I attempted this yesterday, and I haven¹t searched the archives yet, so if this has been gone over, I apologize.
Looking through the books, it would appear that the changes needed to go from layer 3 to layer 2 protocol would be to add ³ETHERNET² to the vSwitch definition, and to add ³ETHERNET² to the DEVICE description in the profile TCPIP file. Now, as you may well have guessed by the fact that I¹m posting this message, doing this didn¹t produce desirable results. I.E. The connection doesn¹t ping or work in any other useful way. Do I need to talk to the network people? Is there something they need to do in the OSA, or on the network? Have I missed something in the configuration? Do I need to check for more current maintenance? (Right now, this is on z/VM 5.3... Soon to be 5.4) -- Robert P. Nix Mayo Foundation .~.
