Thanks, the "#CP VINPUT VMSG ...." helped me to get our system up!
But I'm still confused. Back at home I have to 2nd level VMs named VMTEST and VMNEW. They IPL CMS and run an PROFILE EXEC. Both are exactly the same: VMNEW: /* */ Trace "O" Address "COMMAND" nl="15"x "CP SET RUN ON" Cmd="CP TERM CONMODE 3270"nl||, "CP IPL 06F8 CLEAR LOADPARM 0009" Queue Cmd Exit VMTEST: /* */ Trace "O" Address "COMMAND" nl="15"x "CP SET RUN ON" Cmd="CP TERM CONMODE 3270"nl||, "CP IPL 06F8 CLEAR LOADPARM 0009" Queue Cmd Exit Yet, they IPL differently (VMNEW is 6.1 and VMTEST is 5.4 @ 1003): VMNEW: 17:37:06 z/VM V6 R1.0 SERVICE LEVEL 0901 (64-BIT) 17:37:06 SYSTEM NUCLEUS CREATED ON 2009-09-11 AT 16:51:48, LOADED FROM 610RES 17:37:06 17:37:06 **************************************************************** 17:37:06 * LICENSED MATERIALS - PROPERTY OF IBM* * 17:37:06 * * 17:37:06 * 5741-A07 (C) COPYRIGHT IBM CORP. 1983, 2009.

Ramaekers <framaek...@ailife.com> I'm attempting to bring up our VM system under 2nd level at the DR site. The problem that I'm running into is: 08:58:10 HCPZCO6718I Using parm disk 1 on volume 610RES (device 06F8) 08:58:10 HCPZCO6718I Parm disk resides on cylinders 39 through 158. 08:58:10 Start ((Warm|Force|COLD|CLEAN) (DRain) (DIsable) (NODIRect) 08:58:10 (NOAUTOlog)) or (SHUTDOWN) H HCPSED6013A A CP read is pending. The HCPSED6013A seems to be the problem. At our site, I have two VMs that I can IPL under our z/VM 5.4. One will IPL just fine (i.e. no HCPSED6013A) the other doesn't' and displays this message. Both VMs are configured (DIRECT) the same. I'm at a loss as to why this happens with one and not the other. We had no problems during the last DR, but we've applied z/VM 5.4 maintenance since then (1003). Ideas? Frank M.
