Agreed If the problem Is the I/O config It doesn't matter what op sys will eventually run on the box You can code up a I/O gen on notepad put it on a USB stick Upload it from the HMC use the SA version of the gen read in the source code and load out the IOCDS And do a POR Just to get you started, you just need a minimum number of devices
The part that’s confusing me , I guess I missed something, but where does a working z/os image come in play here ? Please let me know where I missed that I thought he was just talking about a z/10 in a remote location running VM I did not follow all of it either -----Original Message----- From: IBM Mainframe Discussion List [mailto:IBM-MAIN@LISTSERV.UA.EDU] On Behalf Of R.S.

Actually you can IPL from DVD, (*no! it's ftp from YOUR workstation!* DVD stinks!), but what is the reason of starting anything from DVD, when no device is available? You won't fix anything. What you need as a prerequisite is at least simple working IOCDS. BTW: I admit I did not follow the discussion, but it seems high unlikely to lost IOCDS and working z/OS image. You can screw up the z/OS, you can destroy your IOCDS, but you cannot destroy both in one erroneous action! -- Radoslaw Skorupka Lodz, Poland -- Treść tej wiadomości może zawierać informacje prawnie chronione Banku przeznaczone wyłącznie do użytku służbowego adresata.
