In addition to what Alan said about your config and maintenance, you might want 
to take the OSA chpid completely offline and back on to force it to reload its 
microcode.   We had some OSA issues last week with a z9->z10 upgrade and the 
reload fixed them.

0xF6 is specifically issued when the VSWITCH type doesn't match the way
the guest has previously configured the adapter.  You could get this error
if the guest tried to configure layer 3 on an layer 2 VSWITCH or the guest
configured the vNIC prior to the COUPLE to the VSWITCH.

All that would be required is to log the user off/on or detach the NIC and
re-define it.

If the ONLY thing you changed was z9->z10 and you have the support for
OSA-Express3 (if that's what you're using) applied, then call it in.  Just
double-check that Linux is configured to do layer 2.

I have seen systems do odd things after a h/w change because something was
dependent on the system identifier or CPU serial number.
