The first record will be a PSW, a READ CCW and a TIC CCW. Whether the next 
record really is IPL text is what is hard to determine.

I believe that what's common to any IPL text is that the first 24 bytes do 
nothing more than set up a channel program to read the next n number of bytes. 
Whether this looks the same for MVS or SAD or xxx, I've never researched.

I doubt it; what signature would it look for?

It would be easy to write a program that looked for a specific version of 
IPLTEXT, but I don't see how to do anything more general than that.

Is there a utility that will display all mounted volumes that have IPL Text 
installed?
