Do you have a different system config file that has your page packs as online? You could use the SAIPL screen to point to that config file. Do you have spare packs that are online at ipl? You could format them as page and clip them to the volsers you system is expecting for its page packs, then IPL and do your repairs.

The system (Test DR z/VM environment) cannot continue because the OFFLINE_AT_IPL statement contains the address of the PAGE volumes. So we are thinking that having the PAGE volume addresses included in the OFFLINE_AT_IPL list is keeping the PAGE volumes from coming online and therefore preventing the system from initializing. My other option would be to shutdown the DR z/VM environment and update the SYSTEM CONFIG without those ranges and create a new CPLOAD module to see if that is what is actually causing the z/VM system from fully initializing.
