Real OSAs changed at some point to allow any address to be used. However, z/VM's virtual OSA still adheres to the old restriction, so, yes, the first address must be *even* on a Guest LAN or VSWITCH. And, Steve, the q nic details is only interesting after you have tried to start the device but while Linux is still up. I.e. #cp q nic details.
