That means PATHIN / PATHOUT defs in a COUPLE member?

Assuming you've picked addresses for VTAM that are actually under the 
same CU as your XCF links (not just conveniently close addresses) there 
is no reason it should not work.  Does a D U,.. show the device addrs
online?  Allocated to VTAM? 

I use the same technique.  Find XCF links that already work; then take 
some unused addresses under those CUs and give them to VTAM.   I use MPC+
rather than standard CTC defs, but that's not significant. 

Of course there is an easier technique if your VTAMs are APPN nodes.
Set XCFINIT=YES in VTAM and the VTAM s will automatically set up cross-
domain connections using the XCF signalling that already exists.  Such
things are MUCH easier if you migrate from subarea to APPN.  Very 
different, but easier.
