More precisely, allocations from the Cylinder-managed space on an EAV 
are rounded up to the next multiple of 21 cylinders. Allocations from the 
track-managed space area up to cylinder 65520 continue to be allocated 
as before. The boundary between them is cylinder 65520.

I don't know if there are any restrictions for using an EAV for an IPL volume.
