OK, so, look, surely I'm not the first person to want to do this.

How do I couple a virtual machine's virtual NIC to a Layer 2 Guest LAN? How do I define a Virtual NIC for a virtual machine that is a Layer 2 device?

CP Q V 7000
OSA  7000 ON NIC  7000  UNIT 000 SUBCHANNEL = 0000
7000 DEVTYPE OSA         CHPID 00 OSD
7000 MAC 02-00-00-00-00-01 CURRENT
7000 QDIO-ELIGIBLE       QIOASSIST NOT AVAILABLE

CP Q V 7008
OSA  7008 ON NIC  7008  UNIT 000 SUBCHANNEL = 0006
7008 DEVTYPE OSA         CHPID 02 OSD
7008 MAC 02-00-00-00-00-03 CURRENT
7008 QDIO-ELIGIBLE       QIOASSIST NOT AVAILABLE

They look pretty much the same. Same error here (and I did just try deleting the NIC and then adding it back in case I needed to have the L2 LAN precreated...):
