I had a problem a year ago which might have been similar to yours, after a dynamic configuration change for a point-to-point (no director) FICON channel (from DASD to tape). IBM took APAR OA14812, and closed it FIN. A subsequent IPL fixed my issue. The only problem I had was that D M looked funny with the wrong serial number in it, so I felt hard pressed to insist upon a fix.
