A VTAM question on IBMVM? "Since before your sun burned hot in space, I have awaited a VTAM question on IBMVM." Too bad I can't answer it. VTAM has the strange and wonderful UPDATE= and SCOPE= operands. I know that UPDATE= is capable of changing some of the settings of an active node. I presume your use of the same minor node in two different major nodes is because they have different settings in each one. The folks on IBM-MAIN probably have a better answer.
