I ran into this same problem. The /dev/disk/by-id name for the disk was
different on the cloned system from the master image on some (not all) of
the clones. I didn't find the source of the difference, but I did switch to
/dev/disk/by-path/ccd-0X0391-part1 instead of using the by-id name that the
system had chosen on its own.

I have no idea what generates the by-id names. Ours look like
ccw-IBM.750000000CYCY1.c700.2d, and on several of the clones, the c700
portion changed to something else. The by-path names remain consistent from
system to system, and would seem to me to be a better choice, if your
virtual CCUU addresses will remain the same.

Hope this helps.
