OK dumb question #8763491264:
Have a brand new z/VM 5.4.0 @ RSU0902 in an LPAR on a Z9.
I also have 5 other LPARS running z/OS.
The only way that I can communicate with my VM right now is to go to a
dedicated real 3270 type terminal and log on ( or use the HMC ICC).

anymore?
We use to need them for EREP, but all the current hardware seems to have their
own service processor that makes EREP useless.
Perhaps large shops still need them for something.

Access control is an ISPF function, I presume that one of the two locks (LMF or
SCLM) is used to prevent concurrent updates of the same member. It must also
have some way to serialize the updates of the library. That is an area that I
have avoided. I hate working with kludges or black boxes.
As far as I know it is still important that you don't have duplicate SSIDs.
It still shows up in z/VM displays and z/OS displays. You can still do
commands in both z/VM and z/OS using the SSID. I always assign the SSID to
match the CUNUMBR. We always have the CUNUMBR match the first device
