Think the key is get a working VM system by whatever means available. From  
there validate IO config.
Attach a few devices and see if they've got any data. Make a z/OS guest  
with required devices and see if it will fly.

If the  original volume was not IPL'able, then maybe the IPL data got 
damaged. You  could try updating the IPL data on the RES volume from the 
starter

If in the worst case, you should still be able to  re-use existing volumes. 
Hardware support told you the DS6800 is fine. Instead  of purging and 
reconfigure, you should be able to retain the current volumes.  If you have 
access to the existing user definitions, then you should be able  to retain 
existing user  volumes.
