3. Load the first SAVSTG tape in the tape unit that is your alternative
IPL device.
4. Install the Licensed Internal Code by using the procedure that is

described in â??Task 2Powering Down theSystemâ??? on page 113 through â??How to

Load the Licensed Internal Codeâ?? on page 120. Select option 2 (Install
Licensed Internal Code and Initialize System) from the Install Licensed
Internal Code (LIC) display. When the procedure asks for SAVSYS media, use
your SAVSTG tapes instead.

Sounds to me like you can boot from a SAVSTG tape then.
