Walt: There is a paragraph in the HSM documentation stating that generic TAPEVOL protection should work. But it is somewhat vague, without any details. It says:
--1.9.5.3 Protecting DFSMShsm Tapes --Tip: If you have not defined RACF tape volume sets for DFSMShsm, but you want RACF to protect --all the tapes through a RACF generic profile, specify the SETSYSTAPESECURITY --(RACFIRACFINCLUDE) command. So, i am not trying to do something undocumented. My interest comes from the fact that we have around 30.000 HSM tapes (in a separate RACF dataset), and we want to consolidate both current RACF datasets into a single one, and i like to reduce the number of TAPEVOL profiles before making the consolidation. JUAN MAUTALEN <<If you do anything other than exactly what they document, then it is <<likely that you will experience problems. <<Are you running out of room in the HSMHSM and DFHSMx profiles? If not, <<then perhaps you should just leave it alone. <<If you are, then rather than asking here, perhaps you should contact the <<IBM Support Center and ask for HSM assistance.
