Mark,

I must admit I read the following in the OP :

"I've shared volumes before by having a storage group which is written to from 
one SMSPLEX being online and in read mode from another plex with no problems"

..and thought he meant SYSPLEX for "another plex" rather than SMSPLEX - hence 
my rather off target reply.

Read the OP's post again  The very first thing he wrote was:

>"We have 2 SMSPLEXES within a bronze SYSPLEX."
