Hello Bill,
Do you have anything plugged into the OSA cards? If I remember correctly, the MP2000 OSA cards needed to have the terminator installed or needed to be wired to the network for the card to sense anything. Otherwise it would be offline.

This VM is so old I'm not sure if OSA/SF is installed and even if it is I've never used it under VM.
