Is this through the same OSA port and what level of VM are you running? ________________________________

We want to setup the second level VM OSA as a trunk on a layer 2 network for LINUX guests. This is only for testing as we will eventually be setting up multiple OSA's in a trunk on a 1st level VM system on a layer 2 network hosting multiple LINUX guest. This is our goal at any rate. Sorry about the intro to what we are trying to accomplish. Problem. The level 2 VM hangs and the CPU goes to 100% on the level 1 VM and we have to force the 2nd level VM. The command we are trying to use is the following. "define vswitch vswf500 rdev f500 controller dtcvsw2 eth vlan 1 portt trunk" Thank you Russell Gendreau Time Customer Service, Inc. 813-554-2064
