Which volser? You would have to be very careful to avoid a deadly
embrace.

You trimmed my quote back too far. I acknowledged in my statement that the root cause of the need to not include the VOLSER in the RNAME is that the ENQ is being done prior to the allocation of the dataset being managed by the ENQ (some times before the dataset even exists such as in the case of a DISP=NEW). So long as you do not know which version of a dataset you are going to use, you can not include the VOLSER in the RNAME (as I noted this restriction DOES NOT apply to ISPF or other SVC99 usage since at that point in time you DO know the dataset's VOLSER and thus can use it for non-SYSDSN private QNAMEs such as ISPF's SYSEDIT[?]).
