What I have done is after IPLing second level, I issued 'ATT 163C to
VMTEST' and that seemed to work and now on second level OPERATOR, it
shows:

11:01:27 Q 163C                                         
11:01:27 DASD 163C ATTACHED TO WVLNX30  0A81 R/W LX163C 

So, I think that's what I want, but I don't think I have definitions
quite right.  Seems like I shouldn't have to do that everytime I ipl. 
Anyway, it got me where I needed to be for now.

THANKS Everyone for the help!

In the second level system, do a "Q DASD ALL" and look at the results;
Do
you see your disks there, and what is their state?

In the first level system, do a "Q DASD label" for the two disks in
question, and see what their state is there.

There has to be a reason that the disk isn't finding its way into the
second
level system as a usable device.... Just need to figure out what that
is.
