One of the reasons I dislike the virtual optical support vs. the NFS

I probably ought to give the NFS approach a try. That was the approach I
was intending to use when I heard of the virtualized virtual optical
approach.

To combat that problem, I almost always remove all the virtual optical
devices on the target and then recreate them by vary off/on the NWSD from
the host.

I hadn't thought of that method to clean up the virtualized optical drives
on the guests. I'll keep that in mind when I finish cleaning up the NWSD's.
Right now I have two LPARs with DASD NWSDs that are also virtualizing
optical drives.
