Alternatively seeing as it an ADCD system and presumably all the CDs were used then there is a standalone system already there from which you can IPL. You'll need to go to the IBM ADCD site to check which disk your particular version has as the standalone system and then IPL from that with the loadparms changed to that disk. Then you can logon as IBMUSER with the default user and do whatever you have to (i.e. follow John Mckowns suggestion.) Just remeber that when editing datasets you'll also have to put the volser in as the standalone system does not know the other volumes and you won't want to edit SYS1.PARMLIB of your standalone system nor make any RACF changes to it.
