So you bought a new electric furnace for the house, huh? :)
Quite literally yes I did, because the basement and first floor does not
have HVAC yet!
Only the second and third floors do!

Congratulations! Mainframes are fun!
Thanks and yes they are :)
One does not boot a mainframe; one IPLs it. :)
I totally knew this but somehow forgot such terminology while writing
this email. *facepalm*
I can't advise you as to the other boxes. From my Linux experience on
mainframe I can say it doesn't seem to boo... IPL any differently to
any other mainframe OS. If you can define the device to the mainframe
and issue an IPL command, you *should* be able to IPL anything I think?
Hm ok, I will have to do some more research on the storage front then.
What I have been told is that you can IPL Linux over a SAN but not any
IBM OS.
But if IPLing shouldn't be any different then maybe you can't IPL from a
SAN at all which I wouldn't be surprised at.
