a. PTFs are required.
b. Although CHPID type OSN does not use any ports (because all communication is LPAR to
LPAR), it is listed here for completeness.
c. OSM Support in z/VM V6R2 and V6R3 for dynamic I/O only.

7.3.47 Open Systems Adapter for IBM zAware

The IBM zAware server requires connections to the graphical user interface (GUI) browser
and z/OS monitored clients. An OSA channel is the most logical choice for allowing GUI
browser connections to the server. By using this channel, users can view the analytical data
for the monitored clients through the IBM zAware GUI. For z/OS monitored clients that
connect an IBM zAware server, one of the following network options is supported:
A client-provided data network that is provided through an OSA Ethernet channel.
A HiperSockets subnetwork within the z13s.
IEDN on the z13s to other CPC nodes in the ensemble. The z13s server also supports the
use of HiperSockets over the IEDN.

7.3.48 Open Systems Adapter for Ensemble

Five different OSA-Express5S and OSA-Express4S features are used to connect the z13s to
Unified Resource Manager, and other ensemble nodes. These connections are part of the
ensemble's two private and secure internal networks.
For the intranode management network (INMN), use these features:
OSA Express5S 1000BASE-T Ethernet, FC 0417
OSA Express4S 1000BASE-T Ethernet, FC 0408
For the IEDN, use these features (CHPID type OSX):
OSA-Express5S 10 Gigabit Ethernet (GbE) Long Reach (LR), FC 0415
OSA-Express5S 10 Gigabit Ethernet (GbE) Short Reach (SR), FC 0416
OSA-Express4S 10 Gigabit Ethernet (GbE) Long Reach (LR), FC 0406
OSA-Express4S 10 Gigabit Ethernet (GbE) Short Reach (SR), FC 0407
