Code:
ent0, ent2 __ etherchannel ( ent6 ) --- ent4 (Virtual) --- ent7 (SEA) 
----ent5 (Ctrl chan) 
 
ent1 -- Has a I/P address bound

I have had another look at the listing and now fully understand what is going on and your problem!

The VIO server is fitted with a four port ethernet card hence ent0, 1, 2, and 3 which is not listed but must be there as the first virtual connector became ent4 with ent5 as its control channel (These were created on the HMC before the etherchannel adapter was created hence the etherchannel adapter is ent6). The etherchannel was then created probably using the following command on the VIO server:

Code:
mkvdev -lnagg ent0 ent2 -attr mode=8023ad

Following this the only virtual SEA was created on the VIO server using the following command:

Code:
mkvdev -sea ent6 –vadapter ent4 -default ent4 -defaultid 100 (This is the VLAN ID) -attr ha_mode=auto ctl_chan=ent5

All of this means the adapter ent1 is a physical port on the VIO server which is configured with a management / admin address (whichever your organisation uses).

As I said earlier you will need to connect the client LPARs virtual ethernet adapter to whichever VLAN id was declared when ent4 was created. To find this VLAN id you can either look at the VIO server on the HMC or run the command
Code:
entstat -d ent7 | more

which will list the VLAN id in the listing which is quite long!

asadmin-create-resource-adapter-config(1AS)			   User Commands		       asadmin-create-resource-adapter-config(1AS)

NAME
asadmin-create-resource-adapter-config, create-resource-adapter-config - creates the configuration information in domain.xml for the connector module SYNOPSIS
create-resource-adapter-config --user admin_user [--password admin_password] [--host localhost] [--port 4848] [--secure|-s] [--passwordfile filename] [--terse=false] [--echo=false] [--interactive=true] [--threadpools threadpoolids] [--property name=value[:name=value]*] raname Creates configuration information for the connector module. This command can be executed prior to deploying a resource adapter, so that the configuration information is available at the time of deployment, or after deployment. If the resource adapter is created after deployment, the resource adapter is started. You must first create a threadpool, using the create-threadpool command, and then identify that threadpool value as the ID in the--threadpools option. This command is supported in remote mode only. OPTIONS
--user authorized domain application server administrative username. --password password to administer the domain application server. --host machine name where the domain application server is running. --port port number of the domain application server listening for administration requests. --secure if true, uses SSL/TLS to communicate with the domain application server. --passwordfile file containing the domain application server password. --terse indicates that any output data must be very concise, typically avoiding human-friendly sentences and favoring well- formatted data for consumption by a script. Default is false. --echo setting to true will echo the command line statement on the standard output. Default is false. --interactive if set to true (default), only the required password options are prompted. --threadpool the threadpool ID from which the work manager gets the thread. --property configuration properties of the resource adapter java bean. OPERANDS
raname the value kept in the resource-adapter-name in the domain.xml file. Example 1: Using create-resource-adapter-config asadmin> create-resource-adapter-config --username admin1 --password adminadmin myresourceadapter Command create-resource-adapter-config executed successfully EXIT STATUS
0 command executed successfully 1 error in executing the command asadmin-create-threadpool(1AS), asadmin-delete-resource-adapter-config(1AS), asadmin-list-resource-adapter-configs(1AS) J2EE 1.4 SDK March 2004 asadmin-create-resource-adapter-config(1AS)
