You need to clarify with your DR provider whether you will be running in an LPAR or on z/VM, and if running in an LPAR, whether the LPAR config will be adjusted to match your home config. Device numbers (RDEVs) are just imaginary widgets in the IOCP deck and *can* be changed. (Possibly for additional cost.) And, then, you should exercise your DR plan with that in mind. E.g. run second level in a guest that has different RDEV numbers. Alan Altmark z/VM Development IBM Endicott
