I know the problem is solved now, but I remember a similarly mysterious
occurrence in the past. It was one of those 'this could not possibly be
happening' situations. Two systems in a shared DASD environment came to
point to two different devices with the same volser. It's unlikely but not
impossible if a volume has been copied to a another location so that
there's a duplicate volser, and a newly IPLed system varies offline the
physical device that other systems are looking at. The result can drive
you crazy. ;-)
Your scenario does not cause data lost.
The better is to have two volumes with same volser, believing the
systems access each own copy, but the reality is different...
BTW: the problem is not solved, only my test on sandbox system was
mistaken. I'll recreate it.
