<snip> Alan...what would be he HSM refresh command? </snip> There is no mechanism to refresh ARCCMDxx in entirety. The only way to do that is to restart HSM.
The method used is to issue individual HSM commands to accomplish the same changes made to ARCCMDxx. E.g. ADDVOL, SETSYS, ..... There are *very* few things that cannot be done dynamically. For information on the individual commands see: http://publibz.boulder.ibm.com/cgi-bin/bookmgr_OS390/FINDBOOK?filter=dfs mshsm+storage+administration+reference&SUBMIT=Find HTH, ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the message: GET IBM-MAIN INFO Search the archives at http://bama.ua.edu/archives/ibm-main.html
