Good catch, Radoslaw. I'm passing this on to my storage guys--who probably know it already.

According to the fine manual, I can do a PARM='NOREPLYU' to make this happen, but that only works if I also have VERIFY(volser) defined for each INIT statement. I want to do a combination of NOREPLYU and NOVERIFY. How do I make that happen? Update: PM17764: NEW FUNCTION - ADD 'FORCE' PARAMETER TO PARM='NOREPLYU' TO BYPASS VERIFY(SERIAL) REQUIREMENT **************************************************************** * PROBLEM DESCRIPTION: Currently to bypass the Operator's * * intervention (reply U or T) message * * when using the CPVOLUME, INIT, INSPECT, * * INSTALL, REFORMAT, REVAL, or TRKFMT * * commands to offline volumes it is * * required that you must specify the * * VERIFY(serial) parameter when using * * the PARM='NOREPLYU' in the JCL. * **************************************************************** * RECOMMENDATION: * **************************************************************** Now when PARM='NOREPLYU,FORCE' the VERIFY(serial) parameter will no longer be required to bypass the operator intervention (Reply U or T) message.
