I don't see a DEVICE and LINK for ETH0, so get rid of it. In any case,
you can't assign the same IP address to two different interfaces.
(Well,
you might be able to but you better not.)

Remove the above. You don't need it. A VSWITCH is a LAN, so you don't
need (or want) point-to-point routes.

Remove the above and code the MTU size on the LINK statement instead.

OK, assuming that 10.1.1.1 is Out There somewhere.
----Default route to everything else
Basically, I do need, for now, a point to point. I can't subnet it,
because of other devices on the same subnet (via the ETH0).
What I need is a host route (no subnet)?
------------------------------------------------------------------------

The other host is a z/VSE system and it has:
* Link to VSWITCH on VSWTMK00
DEFINE LINK,ID=AILVSW0,TYPE=OSAX,DEV=(A90,A91),DATAPATH=A92, -
IPADDR=010.001.020.002
* - VSWITCH to z/VM TCP/IP stack
DEFINE ROUTE,ID=AILVSWT,LINKID=AILVSW0,IPADDR=010.001.020.020
In other words:
VSWITCH ETH0
10.1.20.2 <-------> 10.1.20.20 <-----> Everything else
z/VSE z/VM
