Use the OSA card with a port defined as OCC (I think it is OCC).  Anyway, the OS running in an LPAR will see non-SNA terminals, very similar to what they saw as "dialed" devices.

 There is company-wide murmuring in the air regarding dropping
VM, under which all our clients' VSE machines run, and having them run
on separate LPARs.

 I need to ask: assuming that the IP stack in the client VSE is
NOT accessible (since it is on the client's network, to which we, the
support team, have no access), how do we "simulate" the "DIAL" command?

 Presently, all access to the client's VTAM-based applications
(CICS, etc.) is done via a DIAL command from first-level VM. If VM
disappears, how will we be able to access the client's system? Is there
an LPAR-based equivalent? From WHERE do we issue this equivalent
command?

 Thanks, in advance.
