Hello, hopefully someone can help me out with this, I have created a virtual Ethernet adapter on the VIO but would like to add it to my new LPAR.
On my VIO only my disk is mapped.
For the sake of clarity does this concern an Ethernet adapter or a disk VHOST, very important. Once you have answered that question we might be able to help you.

vde_pcapplug
VDE_PCAPPLUG(1) General Commands Manual VDE_PCAPPLUG(1)NAME
vde_pcapplug - Virtual Distributed Ethernet libpcap cable
SYNOPSIS
vde_pcapplug [OPTION]... interface
DESCRIPTION
vde_pcapplug is a plug to be connected into a VDE switch. All the data that is catched by the plug is injected into interface and every-
thing from that interface is sent in the switch.
OPTIONS -p, --port=portnum
It is possible to decide which port of the switch to use. When this option is not specified the switch assigns the first available
unused port (if any). It is possible to connect several cables in the same switch port: in this way all this cables work concur-
rently. It means that packet can result as duplicate but no ARP table loops are generated. Is useful when vde is used for mobil-
ity. Several physical interfaces can be used at a time during handoffs to prevent hichups in connectivity.
-g, --group=group
group ownership of the communication socket. For security when more want to share a switch it is better to use a unix group to own
the comm sockets so that the network traffic cannot be sniffed.
-m, --mod=octal-mode
octal chmod like permissions for the comm sockets
-s, --sock=socket
specify the UNIX socket to be used by local programs for joining the VDE. The default value is "/tmp/vde.ctl".
-d, --daemon
start vde_plug2tap as a background process
-P, --pidfile=pidfile
put the process ID of vde_plug2tap in pidfile. Can be used with --daemon to store the PID for future killing.
-h, --help
show a brief help
