Empirical results indicate that z/OS 1.7 does not specifically register 
for SIGNAL SHUTDOWN.
We have 3 to 4 z/OS guests running on z/VM 5.2, along with several Linux 
(SLES9) guests.

CP QUERY SIGNALS ALL ALL
shows the Linux and SFS servers, but nothing for the z/OS 1.7 guests.

I'm not sure what you want me to explain.  VSE is apparently enabling 
itself, just like CP does, if the facility is available.  I have no idea 
of z/OS supports the signal or not.  It is really base hardware support 
since CP SIGNAL SHUTDOWN is just simulation of the signal generated when 
you deactivate an LPAR on machines that have the capability.
