Re: RMM Volume Release Sub Command

2008-04-25 Thread Mike Wood
Norm, The subcommand to release a volume is
RMM DV volser RELEASE
Without fail, that will release it for return to scratch or whatever else the 
release actions are. To do a complete chain, you can use RMM to build the 
commands;
RMM SV VOLUME(volser) CHAIN LIMIT(*) CLIST('RMM DV ',' RELEASE')
Then run the exec created by that command.

Those commands can run in the batch TMP or within a Rexx exec or CLIST.

I'm assuming that it requires some type of CHANGEVOLUME command followed
by some release parameters, but I'm not quite sure how to put it all
together.  I'd also like it to release all volumes in a chain if a chain
is present.
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
