Gadi This looks like a problem for IBM to solve.
It was back in 2001 when I last busied myself with the use of OSA/SF for the purposes of performing configurations - as opposed to simply retrieving information from OSA storage. However I do remember spending a lot of time getting to grips with the various platforms for customisation and the various ways of communicating between OSA/SF and the platform, for example, OS/2. While you wait for IBM to sort out why you cannot retrieve your OAT you might like to try simply storing a configuration created on and then stored from what I see is today's "platform", Java.

When I tried to configure the OSA using option 2 in IOACMD I didnt get an option for a OSA express2 1000BaseT.
