Hello dear experts.
I have a customer who is considering using HSM (never used HSM before).
We are trying to understand if when using TAPESECURITY(RACF) option of HSM
We also have to add manually each HSM VOLSER into the RACF TAPEVOL HSMABR
profile.
We are getting mixed and confusing messages

What we're using:
SETSYS NORACFIND
