Just for your information about our problem with TCPIP traffic suddenly
stopping, and working again after a reboot or network restart or failing over to
the backup OSA ports.

We are pretty sure it's the use of Layer 3 that is causing the problem.
After changing eth0 config and changing to a vswitch using layer 2, problem 
goes away.
So we have added a new setup of vswitches using layer 2, and changes the 
servers when
we need to or can now, one by one.

Then I think you've got a whole different problem than a stale arp cache 
somewhere.  Unless you can ping your default gateway, in which case it's 
something else entirely.
