Here's what I do (I think you remember my FLASH2ND EXEC):

 

1)                   Use FLASH2ND to create a 2nd level/backup system

a.       This will use a new prefixed VOLID of '54B' (replacing the
540).

b.       Updates the SYSTEM CONFIG reflecting the new VOLID

c.       Updates a copy of the 1st level directory (USER2 DIRECT)
changing the VOLIDs to match the new prefix

d.       Runs DIRECT against the 2nd level/backup system with the
updated directory (USER2 DIRECT).

2)                   FLASH2ND process creates unique VolSer (VOLID) and
is IPLable (w/o changes)

I plan to DDRed my system disks 540RES, 540SPL, 540W01, 540W02, before I
apply maintenance to Level 1 and PUT2PROD, so that I have a *hot*
fallback when I IPL. the maintenance. 

How can I be sure the IPL will not pick up these standby disks but WILL
pick them up if I need them for fallback?  Is just changing the 540RES
IPL address enough?
