Thanks, I didn't do CMS SET CONCEAL ON, but I was in CMS when I did cp terminal sys3270 on I started with the guest logged off, did LOGON, cp terminal, etc
In any event, after a few more trys of CP IPL .. the guest's been in LOGOFF/FORCE pending for 2 hours and looking thru the list archives I'm luckier than this guy in Feb 2006 who got PRG004 trying IPL to SYSG: " I tried using SYS3270 and I abended our z/VM 5.1 system. Maybe I didn't set it up properly but I didn't think it would cause a PRG004. I have a console set to TERM CONMODE 3270 and SYS3270 ON. I do an IPL 6528 CLEAR LOADP SYSG. I do not get a SALIPL screen only a VM read. Then the first level VM system crashes with PRG004. I am doing this on a z/900 in native mode (no LPARs). Should this work?"

Just a thought: Maybe you IPLed CMS first and run with SET CONCEAL ON: the TERM SYS3270 ON kills CMS but CONCEAL ON makes CP to reIPL it.... P.S. if your only override on SAPL is to enter CONS=SYSG, you can do it at once: IPL 460A LOADPARM CONSSYSG 2010/4/9 Romanowski, John (OFT) <john.romanow...@cio.ny.gov<mailto:john.romanow...@cio.ny.gov>> On z/VM 5.3 I'm trying to IPL a guest z/VM to the guest's emulated integrated 3270 device (SYSG) but not succeeding. >From the guest's logon console I do: cp terminal conmode 3215 cp terminal sys3270 on cp ipl 460a loadparm sysg which gives me a VM READ instead of the expected SAPL screen where I'd enter cons=sysg and PF10 to IPL VM to sysg Thought I'd done this successfully years ago, but maybe not. Am I doing this incorrectly?
