The simple answer is that, once your virtual machine is set up, everything you¹re interested in are the virtual components; You no longer need to deal with the ³real² devices.
In your virtual machine, all you get to see is the 12FF disk; the real DASD it resides on doesn¹t exist in your virtual world. The same can be said for your virtual NIC; you don¹t care what the real OSA card is at that point. Your terminal? It¹s whatever the virtual machine¹s console address was defined as. It doesn¹t matter what real terminal you¹re sitting at. For DASD, you¹re going to label your minidisk, so you¹d use whatever label you initialized with. It doesn¹t matter what the label of the real DASD is, and you can use it, or some other label, based on your current needs. You¹ve got to think ³virtually². -- .~. Robert P.
