Mark, Since he's using a dedicated boot disk, would it help (in the meantime) if there's a forced delay between virtual machine creation time and Linux IPL command (i.e, sleep 5)?

Am I not allowed to see the report? No, it's been restricted to the reporter and Novell employees. What I can tell you is that the bug is fixed in the SLES10 SP3 series of s390-tools. Since SLES10 SP2 and earlier are out of support, there will be no fix provided for them. The patch description, which will eventually end up on IBM's developerWorks web site, shows this: Description: zipl: handle status during ipl Symptom: You encounter an error during IPL with "disabled wait" message. Problem: During the IPL sequence the subchannel of the IPL device has to be enabled. If there is a status pending or busy condition on the subchannel the IPL code abborts the IPL and goes into disabled wait. Solution: To resolve the problem the IPL code accepts the status pending or busy condition on the subchannel and does up to 256 retries. Problem-ID: 57775 If you download the source RPM for the SLES10 SP3 s390-tools, you'll also be to see the same description in the s390-tools-sles10-zipl-handle-status-during-ipl.patch file included there (typos and all).
