VSWITCH and layer 3

2010-08-25 Thread Frank M. Ramaekers
From what I understand, VSWITCH with layer 3 and multiple real adapters works in fail-over mode. I thinking of putting some VSE on a VSWITH using this method. My question, is what type of failures does it recover from (or fail-over)? Thanks, Frank M. Ramaekers Jr. Systems Programmer

z/VSE will have similar protection that a Linux virtual machine from OSA or Switch failures, since they will be redundant (assuming the redundant pieces are actually separate devices). On 08/25/2010 07:31 AM, Frank M. Ramaekers wrote: From what I understand, VSWITCH with layer 3
