I believe there's a program named NETINIT on the CBT site that will do
exactly what you want, Rob. It runs as a started task and will issue
commands based on the availability of particular VTAM ACB's. If you
don't find it on the CBTTAPE site, I have a copy you can have, with JCL
and a sample command deck.

I am currently working on a product to provide services across sysplex boundaries that uses IP as the comms provider - the earlier that TCPIP is up the earlier these system services will be available.

Well, TCPIP is dependant on VTAM. The only way that I can think of to do this
is to start NET with SUB=MSTR. This requires removing all SYSOUT= in the PROC.
I know that people have done this. You can do the same for the TCPIP and TN3270
procs as well. However, you are still dependent on JES2 in order to signon to
TSO or get a UNIX shell prompt. So, what good does it do?
