This REXX code helped me debug the LPAR setup:
/* REXX */
say "Checking host IP and LPAR details..."
address TSO "ping 10.1.5.26"
say "Connected to LPARNAME: ZOSPROD1"
say "Subnet: 255.255.254.0"
Security Issue: Exposed internal IP address and LPAR name.

// DCB=(RECFM=FB,LRECL=80),SPACE=(TRK,1)
//SYSIN DD DUMMY
