Thanks for your help guys I got it working using VSWITCH .. I was unable to post the PDF to the listserver but the doc I used to set it up was called " z/VM VSWITCH with failover" If you want a copy let me know and I will e-mail it to you..
The one sacrifice I had to make was to not run TCPIP on VM as there are no spare OSA address's, but we don't need network access to VM anyway..

The tricky bit is then that the TCPIP interface does *NOT* use the real OSA, but a virtual OSA coupled to the VSWITCH, just like any other VSWITCH user. But it still functions as the *CONTROLLER* for the real OSA. Yeah, a little confusing.
