"It depends" Are your public (work) volumes SMS managed? If so, then you must initialize the volumes and put the new volsers in the appropriate storage group (look to see if there are any extras in there already - we tend to put non-existant volsers in our storage groups just for this case). If the work volumes are not SMS managed, then simply initialize them to the appropriate volser, then issue a mount command for each of them similar to: MOUNT dddd,VOL=(SL,volser),USE=PUBLIC where "dddd" is the device number and "volser" is the new volser, and you're done. Oh, update the VATLSTnn member to include the new volsers also. -- 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.
