We are migrating from z/OS 1.7. My test Lpar is not part of the production sysplex, and won't ever be from what I understand. I IPL'd 3 times now, all with the same results. I tried taking a Stand Alone dump, and I never get a console message, even though it is supposed to go to the same console as the IPL. I hit enter - that didn't do anything. Someone said do a $S, which as I've already replied says its an invalid command. I'm going home now, so I'll probably call IBM on Monday morning. <SNIP> Double-check your IODF contents against your parmlib info to make sure that you are pointing to the correct console(s). Also, check the HMC "console" (sorry, I forgot the name of it) and see if "MVS" is doing "lost console" support stuff. It has been a few years now, but I had something screwed up in my definitions (pre z/OS 1.4) and once NIP was done, I lost my console and everything I needed to see was going to the "HMC" console area.
