Instead of using ACTIVATE, try using LOAD icon from the HMC/SE? This should allow you to see and change your IPL address if needed.

Your welcome.
When our CE would come in and put maint on our mainframe, sometimes the ACTIVATION PROFILE would get changed. I'd forget about this from time
to time and get totally stumped as to why it wouldn't IPL. What really used to get me, is, because the ACTIVATION PROFILE rarely changes, I'd forget
which one I used last and would have to wake up some brain cells to try and remember.
And since you mentioned an A1 IOCP, etc. I'd almost bet that is what has happened.

Steve,
I looked at the Sys Config but did not change anything. As far as the activation profile, I created a new one for the 'A1' IOCP. I have some help on the way (contractor), I didn't know if I would be able to get in touch with him so I reached out to the list. I will look at the new profile and see if there is a LOAD PARM, I think that is going to be the fix.
Thanks for the tip,

Hello.
Per chance did you make changes to your SYSTEM CONFIG file on MAINT CF1?
Did you change the LOAD PARM info on your activation profile(on the HMC)?
Has your activation profile changed on the HMC?

All,
I have a z800 running zVM 4.3 and I am trying to do a Power-On-Reset and
load to bring in a new IOCP. The problem is that I am not getting a SAPL
screen so that I could IPL zVM. I have probability missed something but I
don't know what. I have also tried to bring up the old IOCP but I am
incurring the same problem.
Is there anyone out there that has any hints?
TIA,
