Well, you're welcome for the SWAGs, but I don't think anyone here came close. Except maybe Bob Shannon, who suggested that your DASD subsystem was broken. Easy fix, at least.

The customer opened a ticket with IBM after getting one of those ACTZ messages and I guess it really just comes down to who happens to be available on any particular day because the customer was instructed to log into the DS6800 system with a special CE code and after some commands were entered the system was able to IPL from the OS volume. I don't have the exact keystrokes used but I will make sure that we have a copy saved somewhere for future use if necessary. It's quite likely that this may have been the problem that plagued us back in 2012. I do not know if this was an oversite during the initial configuration process or not but given the problems we've had - they seem so un IBM like - I wouldn't be surprised if it was. Thanks again for all of the help and suggestions!
