It would be even better to use VSWITCH for the real OSA ports and connect your guests to it.

Is that correct ? If it is correct and I need to add another z/OS guest, I would use 108, 109 and 10A. Is there any way to 103 and 107 so all the OSA addresses are used ? ********************************************************************** This email and any files transmitted with it are confidential and intended solely for the use of the individual or entity to whom they are addressed.
