how share image catalog between partitions

how to enable an image catalog in the base partition to be used as an
optical device by a 2nd IBM i partition?

I have a virtual optical device in the HOST partition. The device type is
632B. That device is named OPTVRT01 It's status is *ACTIVE. And an
image catalog is loaded to that device.

Should I see an type 632C optical device in the IBM i client partition?
When I WRKCFGSTS *DEV in the client partition I only see OPT01. No
virtual optical devices.

I installed the LIC in the client partition. Then installed the operating
system. But the install of the OS had some problems. So I would like to GO
LICPGM and install all from the image catalog. But how to access the
virtual optical device of the HOST partition from the CLIENT partition?

thanks,
