So the question now comes to:  What changes occurred at IPL?

What software changes?  Apar/PTFs applied.  What level of z/OS or OS/390 are 
you running.

Any parmlib changes - I ran into an issue when we moved SWA above the line, 
same with UCB.

Have you reviewed a dump to see what area the abends are occurring in?
