Marcy, I have an exec which runs in AUTOLOG1 at IPL, plus every half-hour (in case something changes while you're running), to vary off all but my primary DASD volumes. Looks like:
VM_DASD_addrs = '1000-10FF 1100-11FF 1910-1917' 'PIPE(name DASDOFF endchar ?)|', 'CP Q DASD ALL |', 'SPLIT , |', 'STRIP |', 'PICK W3 /== /OFFLINE/ |', 'PICK W3 /== /SUBCHOFF/ |', 'L: NOT LOOKUP 6.4 6.4 |', 'CONS |', 'SPECS /VARY OFF/ 1 6.4 NW |', 'CP |', 'CONS', '?', 'CP Q' VM_DASD_addrs '|', 'SPLIT , |', 'STRIP |', 'L:' Obviously, if running on the secondaries, this would be disabled.

We're about to jump in. Do you need to keep offline in system config the secondaries? And have 2 system configs in case you need to run off the secondaries?
