You have two different examples. For the DEDICATE case, the virtual chpid number is the same as the physical chpid number. For a simulated NIC, the virtual chpid will be chosen using a complex algorithm. To override the chpid number: NICDEF 1700 CHPID 17 TYPE HIPER LAN SYSTEM MYLAN Alan Altmark z/VM Development IBM Endicott
