I just realized you mentioned the target category specified on the
mount command was VOLSPECIFIC.
Check out PMH 84921,004,000 as this is a known problem being worked.
Check with your CE on a timeframe when the fix will be available.

Les,
You are referring to the z/VM530 documentation, aren't you ?
With or without target parameter in the MOUNT cmd, the targetcat is not
changed under z/VM440 when asking for a scratch in P2P. Did the test with
z/VM530, no change.
This hardware situation is a major regression.

And yes, there will be a VTS at the remote DR site.

You shouldn't have any trouble using virtual tape with VM or VM:Tape.
We use it here, primarily for VM:Backup and VM:Spool. VM:Spool uses
SPXTAPE under the covers. I'm sur

Someone there may be getting confused.
The IBM DS8300 is a virtual tape system. It can work standalone as a
disk based VTS or, in conjunct
the term 'backend tape'.
I obviously have more to learn.
