Usually, to configure OSA (OSD) OAT I need to provide LPAR numbers.
These numbers were the same as in HCD panel Partition List.
How does it works in XMP (multiple CSS) machines like z/990 or z9 ?
AFAIK the channel can be spanned, so "local" LPAR # is not unique.

We do. But this database is almost read only (98.8% of the total IO for
