Hey everyone... 

I'm trying to connect to  VSWITCH and can't seem to get it working.   I have a 
VSWITCH defined as type ethernet, LAN unaware.   My virtual server NIC uses 
vaddrs 3f04-3f06 and has been granted access to the VSWITCH.  The VSWITCH looks 
like;

q vswitch boswitch details                                              
VSWITCH SYSTEM BOSWITCH Type: VSWITCH Connected: 1    Maxconn: INFINITE 
  PERSISTENT  RESTRICTED    ETHERNET                  Accounting: OFF   
  VLAN Unaware                                                          
  State: Ready                                                          
  QueueStorage: 8                                                       
  Portname: PORT0      RDEV: 0E86 Controller: TCPIP    VDEV:  0E86      
    VSWITCH Connection:

      TX Packets: 0          Discarded: 0          Errors: 0            
      RX Bytes: 0                    TX Bytes: 0                        
      Device: 0E88  Unit: 002   Role: DATA                              
    Adapter Owner: LTROB    NIC: 3F04  Name: UNASSIGNED                 
      RX Packets: 0          Discarded: 0          Errors: 0            
      TX Packets: 0          Discarded: 0          Errors: 0            
      RX Bytes: 0                    TX Bytes: 0                        
      Device: 3F06  Unit: 002   Role: DATA                              

After starting the virtual server I get "qeth-bus-ccw-0.0.3f04               no 
interface found".  When I look at /proc/qeth it shows the following;

devices                    CHPID interface  cardtype       port chksum 
prio-q'ing rtr4 rtr6 fsz   cnt
-------------------------- ----- ---------- -------------- ---- ------

OFFLINE +++

Devices 3f00-02 are successfully connecting to a guest LAN.  I can use this 
interface to ssh to the virtual server.  I would like to define a second 
network interface.  I *think* I have my VSWITCH defined properly but it looks 
like Linux sees these devices (3f04-06) as cardtype "Guest LAN".  Could someone 
using VSWITCH's please cat /proc/qeth and send me the output.  I'm wondering if 
the card type will be something like "VSwitch LAN".

Thanks,
Rob
