Hello, I'm a z/OS person and have some diffuculties to uderstand how to use VTS
tapes in z/VM environment, hopefully get some help from this forum. How to mount the second DDR dump-tape under VM? Want to DUMP my SYSRES to tape: 1. MAINT: DFSMSRM MOUNT CAT SCRATCH0 DGTUIR2026I DFSMS request 84 accepted for processing Ready; T=0.01/0.01 10:24:22 TAPE 0D3F ATTACHED TO MAINT 0D3F 10:24:24 * MSG FROM RMSMASTR: FSMBCR2120I Request 84 complete; volum e V900 02, category SCRATCH0, mounted on device 0D3F in library IBMVTS1 10:24:24 * MSG FROM RMSMASTR: FSMBEC2125I Request 84: device 0D3F attached to MAINT as 0D3F; access mode = READWRITE 2. MAINT DDR SYS CONS IN 123 DASD OUT D3F TAPE DUMP ALL YES 3. After writing the first tape full, DDR want's the second one. How to mount it? The rdev d3f is attached to MAINT, so can't mount from another machine/user. MAINT is "in DDR session" so can't mount from there either. 4. The tapesystem is VTS using 3584 library. Any ideas how to get the following output tapes mounted? (I tested DDR output parm altape to write two tapes but then third tape w as required and there I was again ... ) Thanks Janne J
