<snip> In an instance where the IPL fails due to an ALS related issue, what would the wait state code be and would there be any system messages generated? </snip>
Did this get answered? The wait state code and wait state reason depend on which ALS was not met. -- 07B reason 1E is "not even a z9" (you won't get this on newer z/OS releases -- you'd get the next one) -- 07B reason 1F is "not even a z10" -- 07B reason 20 is "not even a zEC12" and there are many other 07B reasons (which as with reason 1E you will not get on newer z/OS releases -- you'd get reason 1F) No, there are no messages.
