Nope. There are no physical DVD's loaded on the system at all.

OPT04 on the guest only shows content when VRTOPT01, on the management partition, has an associated image catalog loaded.

I've already used the VRTOPT01 / OPT04 to load the latest CUME PTF package's on other partitions and it worked fine.

FWIW: When I load an image catalog on the management partition, OPT04 shows up on ALL guest partitions (we have 4 guests) with the same content.

Here's what our support partition is showing in WRKOPTVOL currently ...
