Followed Jim's instructions to add a WSAT entry for QUIESCE wait state. IPLed 
it in, then did another QUIESCE command. Got SAD and AutoIPL. SAD title:

AUTOIPL WAIT STATE CODE 00000CCC

Thanks to everyone.

intentional. 

  To zap the WSAT such that all restartable wait states drive AutoIPL with 
SADMP and ReIPL:

//D10JHM1P JOB 'D1003P,D10,?',MULDER,CLASS=J,MSGCLASS=H, 
//         MSGLEVEL=(1,1),NOTIFY=D10JHM1 
//STEP1 EXEC PGM=AMASPZAP,PARM='IGNIDRFULL' 
//SYSPRINT DD SYSOUT=* 
//SYSLIB   DD DSN=SYS1.NUCLEUS,DISP=SHR 
//SYSIN DD  *
 NAME  IEANUC01 BLWWSATC
 VER 0030 00000FFF
 REP 0030 30000FFF
/*
// 

To add an entry to the WSAT which causes the QUIESCE CCC wait code to drive 
AutoIPL with SADMP and ReIPL:
 
//D10JHM1P JOB 'D1003P,D10,?',MULDER,CLASS=J,MSGCLASS=H, 
//         MSGLEVEL=(1,1),NOTIFY=D10JHM1 
//STEP1 EXEC PGM=AMASPZAP,PARM='IGNIDRFULL' 
//SYSPRINT DD SYSOUT=* 
//SYSLIB   DD DSN=SYS1.NUCLEUS,DISP=SHR 
//SYSIN DD  *
 NAME  IEANUC01 BLWWSATC
 VER 0020 00000013
 REP 0020 00000014
 VER 0078 00000000
 REP 0078 30000CCC
/*
// 

  Then reIPL to activate the changed WSAT.
