Thanks for the reply. I discovered my problem. It came to me in a dream in
the form of a beautiful girl. Too bad she was a penguin. Anyway, I digress.
I have 4 OSAs installed but are only currently using two on this particular
LPAR. I did not have noauto: in my /etc/chandev.conf, and it appears it was
picking up all my OSAs even though I had not configured them with ifconfig.
I changed qeth1 to qeth3 in /etc/chandev.conf and it works great.

Firstly, make sure you've removed the old LCS definition for eth1
from /etc/chandev.conf. Then, two things to try:
echo "reset_conf" > /proc/chandev
echo "read_conf" > /proc/chandev
echo "reprobe" > /proc/chandev
This *might* cause the LCS driver to release its definition for eth1.
Otherwise, change the "qeth1" at the start of the line for your "new"
interface in /etc/chandev.conf to something else -- I'd say "qeth-1", to
let
it pick -- and repeat the above three commands. Your interface will
probably
be eth2 until your next reboot, however, so this might be more trouble to
you
than it is worth to do it dynamically...
Cheers,
