Michael,
We retired our Amdahl 745 last year but I still have the tcp
parm member that we used. I remember that we had to configure the OSA on
the PEP, but not having it around any longer I can't give you any
specifics. I'd think there would be some former Amdahl SEs around that
could throw in their two cents.
Let me know if you want the tcpparm.

Subject: Re: Amdahl OSA cards and VIPA
THe Amdahl OSA is not capable of QDIO, it is in fact defined as an LCS
device. This means both the real IP Address and the VIPA need to be
difned
to the OSA to get it to route correctly. On an IBM OSA this is done by
updating the OSA configuration (OAT) with both addresses. For the Amdahl
card this does not appear to be possible. One possibility is to define 2
devices to each LPAR with different IP Addresses on each. I do not
beleive
this will work though, as the device for the VIPA seems to require a
type
of VIRTUAL. OSA/SF will not work on Amdahl OSAs, so no help there,
unfortunately. I do have a manual provided by Amdahl for OSAs, but it
does
not mention how this should be done at all. I would be happy with either
a
response that 'do this and this and this', or 'it can't be done'
