I have read the manuals but I am still not clear on the use of automove vs. noautomove.
My Unix envrionment on z/OS V1.9 is one system/one set of UNIX files. So, yes, I have a lot of duplicated files. However, from time to time I notice I will see the following message in SYSLOG IGW026I HFS FILE SYSTEM: SYS1.SPG7.OMVS.DB2V91.SDSNAHFS 202 MOUNT REQUEST FAILED, RESOURCE HELD EXCLUSIVE ON: SPG7 RESOURCE HOLDER: OMVS ASID: X000E TCB: X009DB360 I am thinking that I should add NOAUTOMOVE to the MOUNT statement in BPXPRMxx for these files - because they truely cannot move. Am I correct in this thought? If I could get to a SYSPLEX ROOT, then I would be using a different approach. However, it is not there yet.
