Adam,
You don't specify layer 2 or 3 on the NICDEF. You specify it on your
DEFINE LAN or DEFINE VSWITCH statement.

This says you tried to attach a Layer 3 NIC to a Layer 2 LAN (or
vice-versa)
Indeed.
I defined it to TCPIP with DIRM NICDEF.... and I don't see any way to
specify whether I mean Layer 2 or Layer 3. I just defined it as QDIO.
I think my cough syrup is failing me. How do I tell DIRMAINT, "no,
really, QDIO *ETHERNET*" ?
