GDPS - HS-Enablement (remove dependancy on JES startup)

An HyperSwap-enabled state at IPL still seems to appear to be dependent on JES (JES2 or JES3) being initialised. This means, if we have a problem getting JES up and running, HS could remain disabled for some time. The following message is normally issued at IPL if JES (JES2 in our case) is not fully initialised quickly enough -

GEO551I PRIMARY JES NOT STARTED IN sysname, HyperSwap is disabled

I'll send in the syslog and NetLog from a recent case in our Site2 Ksystem, where HS enablement is particularly critical.

Could the dependancy not be eliminated? What does GDPS need from JES?
