Subject: Re: RMM and VRSMIN
Thanks, everyone, for the replies. We have 13,000 VRSs between two
sysplexes. We're in the process of removing the unnecessary ones (90%?)
David,
VRSMIN is a fail-safe switch added to RMM years ago to prevent accidental
scratching of tapes if somehow the VRS's were deleted. Set it as low as you
like, but if you have 1500or more, then 1000 is a good number. Pick a
threshold below which you know that VRSEL should not run.
