I have a default VSWITCH defined and connected to my OSA express card. z/VM 5.2.

The following userids are coupled to the VSWITCH. Q vswitch detail output at
end of note.

TCPIP (142.214.154.50)
LINUX02 (142.214.154.42) (SLES10)
SLES10 (142.214.154.51) (SLES10)
LINUX04 (142.214.154.44) (SELS10)
LINWAS (142.214.154.45) (SLES9) 

Gateway IP is 142.214.154.1 
Mask is 255.255.255.128

>From LINUX04 I can ping TCPIP but not LINUX02 or SLES10 
>From TCPIP I can ping all Linux systems
>From LAN (142.214.195.65-different subnet) I can ping all. 
Problem: I can not ping from any of the linux guest to any other. 
My route on linux is a follows:
route
Kernel IP routing table
Destination     Gateway         Genmask         Flags Metric Ref    Use Iface
142.214.154.0   *               255.255.255.128 U     0      0        0 eth0

I can’t see why this shouldn’t work 

Now here’s the scary part: I changed the routes file on LINUX02 to 

Default 142.214.154.1 255.255.255.128

and recycled the network card. I was then able to ping LINUX04 and I think it
worked because it went out to the gateway. I was not able to ping LINUX02 from
a different subnet on the LAN so I changed back the route default to 0.0.0.0. 
By doing this both LINUX04 and LINUX02 can ping each other but I still cannot
ping SLES10. Did VSWITCH record/map the IP address to the MAC address or
something? Do I need a fix?

Any comments/suggested are greatly appreciated.

Thanks Hans Rempel
