We replicate our storage subsystems to our own DR data center, we have 2 SKLM 
servers that are standalone Linux based servers one in each data center, one 
primary and one backup.

We have the Java-based ISKLM running on two z/OS LPARs for our tape. 

I assumed ISKLM would not be usable for DASD because of the "catch-22" 
situation of needing the DASD to IPL z/OS. 

Suppose we had a complete power down of the computer room. Could we 
still somehow IPL z/OS from DASD that has not yet contacted its 
z/OS-based SKLM? 

Thanks...
