Les,
I was referring to the ptf VM63746
Thanks

That is the DFSMS/VM RMS APAR that allows for MULTIUSER attach support.
This will allow you to use request an RMS operation without having
the device detached from another user ID. For example, you can
request a library mount for a user ID

You're right JR, I tested this, this morning and I can't get any info.
You also probably means there is no way to obtain the info I need...
But that generates an other question :
What Control Blocks dfsmsrm uses to send back the info we can see with the cmd

Les,
Does RMS would be able to know which tape drive is online on a MVS LPAR ?
The fact is when a tape is mounted on MVS I know enough, with this cmd, which
host has the drive but not when it is sleeping; just online but not working.
Regards
Alain

So how do your 21 LPARs in production deal with the tape drives. You
don't have a dedicated set for each LPAR, I suppose? Wouldn't you just
want to imitate that during a disaster recovery
Rob,
You're right : no tape drives are dedicated into production, idem in D/R.
All tape drives are elligible to be acceded by any parttion.

I read a similar discussion on the mailing list about assign.
We don't have any tools to share tapes between 1 VM 20 MVS.
Something has been developped in the past which is not really up-to-date.
We remarked it needs too much CPU to do its work.

Alain,
At the risk of misinterpreting what you're asking, I have to caution you
that because you CAN share tape drives between MVS systems with the
multiuser option, it doesn't mean you SHOULD (at least, using native
facilities).
