Do you have current microcode? I vaguely remember a hardware problem that caused the symptoms you are seeing, but I thought it was fixed some time ago. Typically, varying the chpid offline from all LPARs that have it online (whether in use or not) will cause the the OSA to re-IML, clearing the condition, but if you are interested in solving the underlying problem, then you will probably need to open a hardware PMR so that they can get traces and dumps of the microcode. Needless to say, it would be bad if the card was reporting "OK" to the host and then not adding the IP addresses to the OAT.
