Bob,
The manual you need is "Implementing System Managed Storage". It takes you
through the basics of getting started with SMS. I don't know what version
of z/OS you are on, so here's a link to all the DFSMS bookshelves:

As far as the ISMF panels, start at option 6 - Storage Group.
You need to fill in your SCDS name if it isn't already, then put the Storage
Group Name in the proper blank, and tab down to "Select one of the following
options" and enter 4.
This takes you to the "Storage Group Volume Selection" panel, where Add
Volumes is option 2.
After you've added them, you'll need to validate and activate your SCDS.
HTH,
Greg Shirey

Where do I go in the panels to add new volumes to what ever pool I need to
put them into?
I know the group is very busy is there a manual, white paper, SHARE
presentation that will help me?
Thanks in advance everyone. I truly appreciate any suggestions.
