Evidently, copying the disk is not enough, and the system comes up, but says 
that there are zero spool files, and all the SDF files are missing.

I was able to get a tape drive attached (zVM normally has no tape drives, since 
they're hogged by his bigger brother, zOS) and used SPXTAPE to dump the SDF 
files, and then load them in the second level image of the new zVM. The hardest 
part was getting the use of the tape drive. (Which was what I originally was 
trying to avoid... Oh well.)

Thanks for all the suggestions and comments. New issue coming up in a bit...
