yes, we got:

EZZ4329I LINK OSA

yes, we got:

EZZ4329I LINK OSAEGFCLNK HAS TAKEN OVER ARP RESPONSIBILITY
FOR INACTIVE LINK OSAEGF8LNK

at the time we moved the cables.

after all 6 cables were connected to the new, single switch (I know, this is a 
SPoF), 
the only OSAs we were able to ping/telnet were the OSC CHPID-type (OSA-Express2)
for our MCS consoles and non-SNA TSO sessions. All other OSAs on OSD CHPID-type
(OSA-Express3) were not reachable. 
I understand that the ARP cache might have had the old MAC address of the old 
switch
stored, but I wonder if there is a command or another way to tell : "just 
forget all your connections
so far, from now on you are connected to a new switch whose MAC address is 
xxxxxxxx"
The only way which on Sunday did work was resetting the OSAs the hard-way, from 
the SE.

Is is a WAD, or are we BAD ? ;-)

Annswer to BTW2: we have 2 physical OSA-Express3 (4 OSD channel type) and two
physical OSA-Express2 (2 OSC and two OSE channel type).
