Thanks Alan.

I'm still at a bit of a loss to understand how to connect the simulated OSA-E
to the real CTC.

The only way I can find to define a simulated OSA-E is with the DEFINE NIC
TYPE QDIO command and, according to the manual, that can only be coupled to a
virtual LAN or vswitch, the later of which requires a physical OSA-E.

Have I understood this correctly, or is there some other way to do this?

Ian
