I don't think you need another controller.
I just logged onto a client's box that has S36 running on a 170. They have
virtual devices mapped to S36 device names.

Change S/36 Display IDs

Have a 170 box with 1 workstation controller on V4R4. This controller just
controls 2 consoles and a twinax printer. All the other access is done thru
TCP/IP. We need to transfer to a S/36 machine using tfrm36. If we need more
devices on the 36 side than the controller supports, do we need to get
another workstation controller even though nothing will be physically
plugged into it? I tried mapping a virtual port (ie QPADEV0099) to a port on
the 36 side and the system didn't like it. Any tricks I need to know?
