Yea, it has always been the rule that you can only have a filesystem mounted RDWR on one system only when not doing sysplex sharing. This includes other systems mounted read only. In other words, cant be mounted anywhere else in any mode.

But the other system is currently 1.10 and SYSPLEX(NO). I only have two systems (tiny shop and shrinking). It will be disappointing to loose the "chmount" capability when I convert the second system to 1.12 and SYSPLEX(YES). -- John McKown Systems Engineer IV IT Administrative Services Group HealthMarkets(r) 9151 Boulevard 26 * N.
