-- snip --- Each DFHSM has a unique hostid and both have HOST=MAIN, CDSR=YES and CDSSHR=YES defined in the startup parms. As the book suggests, I am running both images with the same ARCCMD00 member which has both automigration and autobackup defined for most of the shared volumes. Aside from the occasional RESERVE contention error it works ok but I would like only one image (OS/390) to do the autobackups. The z/OS image doesn't have the necessary tape drives attached yet. Is there a way to set the two DFHSM hosts up so the backup (and possibly the automigration) process is done by only one image? --- snip ---
Have you looked at the ONLYIF HSMHOST(id) construct?
