If you want your z/OS LPARs and Linux guests to talk to each other via HiperSockets, then, yes, you must define additional subchannels on the HiperSocket chpid in the z/VM LPAR. There is no "HiperSocket VSWITCH". And hopefully you are using the dynamic I/O capabilities of z/VM or z/OS so that you do not have to perform a POR.
