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.
