Oh, there's always going to be exceptions. It certainly does no harm to
have DSF and DDR on the PARM disks. I don't generally, because I can
easily walk to the tape drives and it

Either will work, but I make separate tapes and put them in
First thing you have to do is IPL your sysres volume with a LOADPARM of a
console address. This brings up the StandAlone IPL program which allows a
selection of modules, a specification of configuration files, system cons

I like your thinking. I do the same except I also have tapes with just ICKDSF on them. During an

I would recommend having both programs on a tape. I have not tried

Do you recommend having a single IPL tape with both versions on it?
Do you recommend an IPL tape for each product?
Do you recommend running them from an area within the ZVM PARM
