I would like to use a VSWITCH being managed through CP and operating over to separate ports on an OSA Express 2 card. Then I would like to link my main z/VM TCP/IP stack to this VSWITCH. Am I barking up a non existent tree or is this possible I am using the two TCP/IP Controllers ID's DTCVSW1/2

It's very possible. I do it all the time. Put a NICDEF in the directory for TCP/IP, and set up the interface. It can be the same as your real OSA interface (device number, IP Address, etc). TCP/IP on VM won't know the difference. And when you get the second card, the failover process will

What would I reference as the Link and Device statement for connecting the Main z/VM Stack to the VSWITCH? Define a QDIO OSA at your choice of address. I was thinking of creating the addresses for the main z/VM Stack using NICDEF statements in the directory and coupling it to the VSWITCH
