//VONLINE EXEC PGM=IEBGENER //SYSPRINT DD SYSOUT=* //SYSIN DD DUMMY //SYSUT2 DD SYSOUT=(*,INTRDR) //SYSUT1 DD DATA,DLM='$$' /*$VS,'V nnnn,ONLINE' $$ Replace the "nnnn" with the address of the volume. There is no way to "vary on by volser" or any such thing in MVS. If you want, duplicate the /*$VS card multiple times for multiple addresses. -- John McKown Senior Systems Programmer UICI Insurance Center Applications & Solutions Team +1.817.255.3225 This message (including any attachments) contains confidential information intended for a specific individual and purpose, and its' content is protected by law.
