zipl doesn't work with logical volumes, such as RAID1-like mirror setups. The reason behind this is that zipl lacks knowledge about this type of device which prevents it from putting the right type of IPL record into the right place. Because this can cause various types of malfunctions, current versions of zipl even check whether they're pointed at a DASD or ZFCP disk and bail out if neither is the case. This is being worked on and some future version of zipl should be able to cope with a defined set of logical volume setups (no dates given though).
