This nailed it. I ran the mkinitrd command tailored to my environment,
ran zipl, and IPL'd. /dev/sda mounted on boot.
Big thanks.

I've run into an interesting issue with SLES 9 64-bit and zfcp and was
hoping someone here had an idea to fix it. I've checked the archives
but saw nothing matching this.
I've got a 50G FCP LUN on device F100 attached to a VM named LINUX2. If
I IPL SLES on LINUX2, zfcp discovers 0xF100 after /etc/init.d runs
through all its startup scripts. I then need to log in as root to
manually mount /dev/sda1 to my mountpoint, which happens with no
trouble. Since this is a test environment, this is not a big deal, but
when we move into production, this kind of intervention is less than
optimal. (Call me crazy, but I'd like to avoid the 3am phone call to
mount a filesystem that should be mounted on boot. :) ) Any ideas?
You might try a mkinitrd to refresh the /boot/initrd file. I had an issue a
few weeks back that DASD was added to an image but not recognized until late
in the bootup process. Running:
cd /boot
mkinitrd -k vmlinux-2.6.5-7.244-s390x.gz -i initrd-2.6.5-7.244-s390x
zipl
may fix the issue. Make sure the DASD that you are expecting is accurately
identifed. Also note that your version may differ from mine.
