Hi list,
we want to start using VSWITCH with external connection via OSA. So i took the Redpaper REDP-3719-00 "VSWITCH and VLAN Features of z/VM 4.4" and started reading and testing.
But in the "High-Availability" chapter there is following note:
-- note -- Important: Only one port is used for communication between the VSWITCH and the LAN at any one time. Additional ports defined for the VSWITCH are not connected until required. This means that your backup ports can be in use on other guests, or on other VSWITCHes. -- note --
Question : I want to connect 2 OSA to my VSWITCH. Do the 2 OSA communicate via any LAYER-2 protocol (e.g. BPDU)?
