On 9672's, using an OAT was not always required. IIRC it was not needed when using only TCP/IP and not wanting to share it between LPARs. But, given that that MP2000 is "most probably" used in the past, there might be some OAT you can't see and that defines other unitaddresses than your IOCP. You could try to get information from the HMC (did that exist on an MP2000?), or fully reset the OSA. Such things are possible on a z800 I know. Or, you could create an IOCP with unitaddresses 00-FE and see what VM then reports. This won't help if the unknown but loaded OAT defines addresses ofr an LPAR you no longer have....
