The SAVESYS command *MUST* be *ONLY* entered at the 1st VM READ after the IPL command. If you wait until after the 1st ready message, then it won't work.
?
The problem is that DMSINS has some additional initialization to do after IPLing the saved system and if you enter the SAVESYS command after the ready message, that reinit work doesn't get done. One of the really important things that happen in DMSINS after ipling a saved system is to initialize all memory controls based on the memory size of the VM doing the IPL.
