Check the PSP bucket for 5.4 RSU0801 ... I saw it in there yesterday.

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.

Subject: Re: Ethernet vswitch definition

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.

Subject: Ethernet vswitch definition

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?
