We mirror our volumes from one data center to another but we are not using IBM 
DASD.

Is anyone out there doing this?

We're attempting to mirror some volumes from one data center to the
other to improve our disaster recovery times.
It turns out there are a lot of restrictions when doing VM volumes -
timestamping of I/O is not done (it is by Linux guests though) so lots
of error messages are generated.. Intelligent automation can surpress
those... But apparently we shouldn't even put MVS and VM in the same
system data mover (SDM) according to IBM?   We're also having problems
getting the secondary copies flashed to tertiary copies.
