Hello George,
Not that I believe but until I actually find the problem that
may be it.
We IPLed z/VM on 06/17/2006 per Q CPLEVEL.
The three VSE/ESA machines all IPL 740 CLEAR.
They have been up and running since 06/20/2006 for TEST/BETA-SYS
and 06/21/2006 for the PROD system.
I thought that I had IPLed my TECH machine in between but I can
not be sure. I can't IPL it now.
I did IPL from a z/VM standalone Utility tape then I could not
IPL the VSE/ESA standalone tape.
