VSwitch not showing up on VIO Server

Want to run this by you all before opening a PMR with IBM Support.

It's been a few weeks since I have done this so I can't be 100% sure of how I think it worked in the previous version.

We upgraded our HMC's yesterday to 7.7.9 SP2 in hopes of fixing some issues we were having. Today I needed to add a couple virtual network adapters. I first added to the profile and I am unable to select the VSwitch other than Ethernet0 (default) and I am unable to add VLAN's after selecting IEEE tab. If I select the IEEE tab and select OK and then go back to edit that new adapter I can then add the VLAN's I need on that adapter. However I am not able to still select the VSwitch that I am needing to use.

I also tried to do this via DLPAR but I am unable to select anything but the ETHERNET0 VSwitch which does not exist as we replaced it with our own name so the DLPAR function fails.

Ideas appreciated.

Thanks,
Justin
