tyvm, Scott, Kris, Brian, and Frank: Looking good.
I Detached 54XRES from MAINT L1 and from SYSTEM L1. Then on MAINT L1 Attached 54XRES just to SYSTEM. Then on my L2 "to be" guest, ZVM54SVM, linked, accessed, and updated, DF1, alias CF1, np. I believe I had Attached 54XRES and/or its DF1 md to MAINT as well as 54XRES to SYSTEM. When I Attached 54XRES to SYSTEM only and linked and accessed from my L2 "to be" guest, all was well. Once I get my extra Page and Spool disks and DDR them from L1 I should be able to IPL L2. I believe I need to IPL FORCED. Thank you all once again for all your help. "Frank M.

I have cloned the L1 directory, changed all 540 to 54X disks, and updated the L2 directory from L1, getting the expected RC=5. But when I try to link to CF1 on my L2 54XRES from L1, I get: LINK * DF1 DF1 WR HCPLNM102E DASD 0DF1 forced R/O; R/W by MAINT Ready(00102); T=0.01/0.01 12:36:00 DF1 is an attempt to try to "fake out" L1, but it looks like it is still sensitive to it. _____________________________________________________ This message contains information which is privileged and confidential and is solely for the use of the intended recipient.
