ABSTRACT:
A communications adapter is shared by a plurality of input/output (I/O) subsystem images of an I/O subsystem of a central processing complex. To enable the sharing, the communications adapter is configured to a plurality of I/O paths of the plurality of I/O subsystem images. An I/O subsystem may have one or more shared communications adapters.
