Thanks, that fixed the syntax error. Who would have though IBM could make that 
mistake?



Did an IBMLINK search but so far haven't found any PTF that looked like this.

We had this same problem. There is actually nothing wrong with the line but the 
checker looks at the length of the parms following RDEV until one is greater 
than 4 characters (if I remember right). Try repositioning the VLAN 4000 after 
TRUNK. There is a fix out there for it.

We are looking at converting our vswitch from IP to Ethernet. As my first step 
I'm trying to get the syntax correct in SYSTEM CONFIG



I comment out my current vswitch define and add the new one



/*Define vswitch zvm1 rdev 0c60 0c70 */

Define vswitch zvm1 rdev 0c60 0c70 VLAN 4000  PORTT TRUNK  ETH



When I syntax check it I get an error



  2853 +++                    dVal = x2d(xVal)

  1906 +++                   if ( xInRange(tok,loRange,hiRange) = 0 )

  1206 +++             call handle_token

   278 +++      call verify_statement    /* Verify statement syntax */

DMSREX475E Error 40 running CPSYNTAX EXEC, line 2853: Incorrect call to routine



which isn't exactly helpful. It didn't even tell me what line the error was on. 
z/VM 5.4  Anybody see my error?
