Sysres (System Residence) is the disk pack from which the system was started up or IPL'd (Initial Program Load). It is where much of the operating system is defined. Think of a personal computer where you can IPL off a diskette (the A: drive) or off the hard drive (the C:). The A: drive or the C: drive would be the sysres pack, depending on which one you IPL'd from. 2, record 4, English, - system%20residence
