Mike, Thanks for the quick reply. The two volumes were activated, then formatted.
For a test, I just did a "#CP IPL 00C" to reIPL the install system from the reader. I started another VNC session and this time I just did an "Activate" of the two volumes and was not prompted to format. And now the install systems sees /dev/dasda and dasdb, so I am good. Just a hiccup I guess .... -Mike M On Mon, Jun 29, 2015 at 9:59 AM, Michael Weiner <mwei...@infinite-blue.com> wrote: > Hi Mike > > Only thing I can think of is make sure its activated. > > On Mon, Jun 29, 2015 at 9:57 AM, Michael MacIsaac <mike99...@gmail.com> > wrote: > > > Hello list, > > > > I need a system that has dedicated volumes.
