That's one way, as long as the device numbers are never, ever used in
this VM system. If they are, on the next IPL it will cause a little
problem.
Another possibility is to have an exec go through the DASD device list
and vary off the devices based on whether the volume 'belongs' to the VM
system. 'Ownership' is based on an identifier in the VOLID, eg: VM1RES,
VM2WK1, etc.

Would the following be the proper way to specify devices, in the
SYSTEM CONFIG file, that I don't want to come online at an IPL:
Devices ,
Online_at_IPL 0000-FFFF,
Sensed 0000-FFFF,
Offline_at_IPL 0500-050F
Thanks,
Billy
