Yeah, that last line looks like a mistake - you don't want 32 OSA devices
attached to the TCP/IP stack. But you've probably already fixed that.
The reason to attach the z/VM TCP/IP stack to the VSWITCH is to leverage
the HA qualities of the VSWITCH with its ability to fail over to a second
OSA card. Alan is right - if you're going to do this, the better model is
to put the three COMMAND statements into TCPIP's user directory entry.
Then
you don't need the :attach. tag.
The reason to put COMMAND statements into directory entries is so you
won't
have to worry about maintaining a set of SET VSWITCH GRANT statements.
When
each virtual machine logs on, it is able to effectively grant access to
itself.
See section 25.1 of "The Virtualization Cookbook for IBM z/VM 6.3, RHEL
6.4, and SLES 11 SP3" on the Web at
http://www.redbooks.ibm.com/abstracts/sg248147.html
Hope this helps.
