Whole ICSF setup, including Master Key introduction can be done without IPL.

However you have to set up the LPAR in advance. Those changes can be done dynamically or ...Activate will be required. In the last case IPL is a result.

Unless you have a TKE, you will have to use the ICSF panels to enter the master keys. So yes, you'll need to IPL each image to do so. Just a heads up that if you perform ICSF Master Key changes (recommended), you might have to first enter the previous set of keys, then the current set. I can elaborate on why if you'd like.

We are installing a z13s and going through preliminary setup. When selecting the Crypto tab in an Image profile, I was a bit alarmed by this message:

Attention: You must install the 'IBM CP Assist for Cryptographic Functions' (CPACF) feature if a cryptographic candidate is selected from the list box. Otherwise, some functions of Integrated Cryptographic Service Facility (ICSF) may fail.

I spoke to the person who created and placed the order. He assured me that CPACF had been ordered and that no one he talked to believed that it requires explicit 'activation'. So I went to a z12 that has been in service for years. I see the same warning message on the Crypto tab. So it appears to be standard boilerplate that does not reflect the status of CPACF.

We’re still exploring how to set the Master Key. We had thought that it was an HCM task, but now we're led to believe that it's done through ICSF. Which means that we have to IPL (each?) LPAR in order to set it. The guy who did this for years is gone.

Right. I've never seen this particular error caused by a missing CPACF feature. More likely either ICSF is not started or the correct userids do not have access to the necessary ICSF features via SAF/RACF.
