Did you put STDEVOPT LIBRARY CTL in the 2nd level system's directory entry?

We have a 1st level VM 5.2 system that I just recently installed DFSMS/VM on as RMSONLY. And I successfully tested use of 3590 tape drive= s that are in our 3494 library on our 1st level VM 5.2 system. I also have a second level VM 5.4 system installed and have DFSMS/VM= installed on that as RMSONLY also. We would like to test out CA's VM:Tape, VM:Backup, and VM:Operator on this second level system (user vm54test). But I am unsure on how to use the 3494 library on the second = level system. Our tape devices controlled by this library are c00-c05. = I varied c00 offline in our z/OS system (in a separate LPAR) and online in = VM 1st level (and left c01-c05 online in z/os and offline in z/VM 1st level) and then issued: att c00 vm54test c00 But when I try to start RMSMASTR on the second level vm54test system, I = get: TAPE 0C00 ATTACHED TO RMSMASTR 0C00 = FSMBAC2006E Library I/O error; reason code = 3800, request identifier == 0, devic e = 0C00, library = = = FSMBAC2019E Sense Data = 804800C02030204100000000C300000000000000000000804004E80 0BC361311 = = TAPE 0C00 DETACHED BY RMSMASTR Is there something else that needs to be done other than attaching the = tape device to the second level system to get this to work? =
