Your syntax is OK, but only for a 3 digit device name. Just like in JCL, a four character device name needs to have a starting slash. E.g. MOUNT /5D00,VOL=(SL,STOR02),USE=STORAGE
But what I have gotten used to, in my lazy old age, is simpler: MOUNT SYSDA,VOL=(SL,STOR02),USE=STORAGE All it requires is that the STOR02 volume be on-line before the MOUNT is issued. So you could: VARY 5D00,ONLINE MOUNT SYSDA,VOL=(SL,STOR02),USE=STORAGE If 5D00 is off-line. -- John McKown Systems Engineer IV IT Administrative Services Group HealthMarkets(r) 9151 Boulevard 26 * N.
