You can also EXCLude the DSN in GRS. However, that wasn't what the OP asked exactly. But he didn't describe a real problem he was trying to solve, just a disagreement with a co-worker about whether or not the resource name could be modified. If this was a 4 (or more) system sysplex each having 2 systems sharing 2 physically different data sets then GRS EXCL or MII LOCAL would not work as desired. Exits are the only way you could share in that fashion and maintain integrity between the sharing environments.
