Well I'm guessing it can't. I have the following in my TCPIP PROFILE:

        DEVICE  OSA1    LCS        600                           
        ;                                                        
        LINK    OSA1LNK ETHERNET 0 OSA1                          
        ;                                                        
        ARPAGE 5                                                 
        ;                                                        
        HOME                                                     
          10.1.1.93     OSA1LNK                                  
        ;                                                        
        GATEWAY                                                             
          10.1.1.1      =            OSA1LNK   1500        HOST  
          DEFAULTNET    =            OSA1LNK   1500        0     
        ;                                                        
        TRANSLATE                                                
        ;                                                        
        START OSA1     

And I get the following in the TCPIP console log:

        DTCPRI385I  Device OSA1:                      
        DTCPRI386I     Type: LCS, Status: Not started 
        DTCPRI387I     Envelope queue size: 0         
        DTCPRI388I     Address: 0600  

I change it to this:

        DEVICE  OSA1    OSD        600                         
        ;                                                      
        LINK    OSA1LNK QDIOETHERNET 0 OSA1                    
        ;                                                      
        ARPAGE 5                                               
        ;                                                      
        HOME                                                   
          10.1.1.93     OSA1LNK                                
        ;                                                      
        GATEWAY                                                
          10.1.1.1      =            OSA1LNK   1500        HOST
          DEFAULTNET    =            OSA1LNK   1500        0   
        ;                                                      
        TRANSLATE                                              
        ;                                                      
        START OSA1

And I get the following:    

        DTCPRS007E Error encountered in reading PROFILE TCPIP  *:
        DTCPAR123I Line 237: Invalid type field                  
        DTCPAR123I Line 239: LINK statement: Invalid type field  
        DTCPAR123I Line 244: Unknown link name in HOME cmd       
        DTCPAR123I Line 247: Unknown link name in GATEWAY cmd    
        DTCPAR123I Line 252: Device not found                                   
                                                                                
    

Line 237 corresponds to my DEVICE statement and line 239 is the LINK statement. 
600 - 
602 is attached to my TCPIP on the VM/ESA 2.40 guest and I have NICDEF and 
GRANT for 
the VMEASA240 guest in z/VM

Unless anyone can point out something obivious I'm going to chalk this up to 
experience. 


Thanks,

Billy
