You don't have to put anything into /etc/zipl.conf, if you follow my original suggestion: >> Prior to your next drill, you might want to make sure your systems have an >> IPL menu so that to get into single user mode a little easier by doing a >> #cp vi vmsg boot# 1 >> where boot# is "0" for default, "1" for the first boot option in >> /etc/zipl.conf, etc. If you really want to put something into /etc/zipl.conf, I would duplicate your "ipl" entry, rename it to "singleuser" and add the character 1 (numeric one) to your kernel parameters for that entry.
