While this isn't what you asked for, I accomplished this by creating esoterics (or is that generics, I can't remember which is which) that were specific to each 3490E CHPID/CU, i.e. TAPE1, TAPE2, TAPEx.
i.e. FDR full volume dump job //TAPE1 DD ... UNIT=TAPE1... //TAPE2 DD ...UNIT=TAPE2... If no one has code to do this, maybe this approach would be acceptable??? >>> [EMAIL PROTECTED] 06/16/05 01:54PM >>> I asked IBM about this on an ETR. They recommended looking that the IEFTASSI code in SAMPLIB. I really need to emulate SELTAPE=NEXT due to political pressure. I.e. management is now convinced that a least part of our batch processes could run faster if z/OS would spread the tape I/O out better. And they may well be correct. We have 32 3490E Escon attached tape drives. This is four (4) banks of eight (8) drives. Each bank has its own dedicated set of two Escon CHPs. Anybody have any code that they could share that would get these people off my back? -- John McKown Senior Systems Programmer UICI Insurance Center Information Technology This message (including any attachments) contains confidential information intended for a specific individual and purpose, and its' content is protected by law.
