Lindy,

>From my limited knowledge, you can not avoid SVCUPDTE.

Adding your module to DLPA does not update the entry point address in
the SVC table entry unlike PLPA/FLPA/MLPA. OS will do this for you
only when it finds a SVC module in PLPA/FLPA/MLPA at IPL time. Of
course the name of your module should follow the standard SVC naming
rule for OS to notice it.
