Skip, check the internal documentation web site. I left complete
instructions on configuring the ICCs. If you edit a session, be sure to
check all of the fields. The dialog resets some to their defaults
instead of retaining their values.

I need to emphasize that this is not an online/offline issue. Response to D
M=CHP() indicates that only certain OSAC devices--online or offline--can be
accessed by certain LPARs. Turns out that this association is not defined in
the IODF at all but in the OSA 'Advanced Facilities' app on the HMC. Support
here used to be provided by a couple of colleagues who left the company amid
the shock waves from the outsourcing offensive recently celebrated in the media.
We don't need any changes for now, but at least I know where to find the sweet
spot. Kudos once again to IBM Main!

Skip,
It could be part of the OS definitions in HCD panels CBDPDVOS (Define Device to Operating System Configuration) and CBDPDV13 (Define Device Parameters / Features)? There you can define the device as initially offline.
Or it could be part of the ICC/OSC definition that is accessed from OSA Advanced Facilities at the HMC. Assignments can be made by LPAR/MIFID and other criteria there.
I use the latter, combined with IODF definitions that put all online and use CUA assignments that are the same on all LPARs. But they could easily be different. Good luck!

To: [email protected]
We have a perfectly serviceable IODF created by a long departed colleague.
Consoles are hung off an OSA Console CHP. Each LPAR has access to four devices
such that D M=CHP(xx) looks like this:
0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 A B C D E F 00yy $@ $@ $@ $@
$@ $@ $@ $@ $@ $@ $@ $@ $@ $@ $@ $@ 00zz $@ $@ $@ $@ + + + + $@ $@
$@ $@ $@ $@ $@ $@ ...
Every LPAR has a unique set four devices (shown with + signs) so that one OSA
and one set of devices can service all LPARs unambiguously. I have combed
through the IODF, probing top down, bottom up, and side to side, but I cannot
find where this unique association is defined. Everything is working, but it
bothers me that I don't understand because that means I can't change anything.
