Does the HMC DVD appear as a channel attached device, or is it accessed

Arie,
Thanks. We knew it can be done and so tells the HMC help screen. We will try
to ipl next week from a DVD after changing to Single Object Operation (so
far, we tried without it) and report here. It seems not well documented in
the HMC user guide.

Of course as mentioned above, you must format the correct files on the DVD.
Beside documentation you might want to look inside a zLinux (REDHAT or SUSE) DVD

I don;t think z/Os has to do with this. This is a stand alone IPL. DSS S/A
image can be generated as a card-reader image (F/80/80) which is also
supported by tape (according to the manual). Anyway, the HMC does allow
to load S/A utilities from CD, but it requires an INS file that points to

But don't know the way to convert those actions so they will match zOS , and

You answerd yourself. Is IPL form DVD possible? YES. Linux DVD is one of
the evidences.
During z/Linux installation it is possible to use the HMC's DVD drive as a
tape drive. I wonder is DSS S/A can be started (Loaded) from same device and
not from a IOCP defined device.
