I've got a few PAV question for the hardware gurus out there. I define all of my DASD to my production LPAR (these are monoplexes) as WLMPAV=YES, alias and base and I have WLM managing them. I have another LPAR that accesses some of these volumes (actually it is the one accessing these volumes 99% of the time). In this LPAR I only have the bases defined no aliases and do not have WLM managing these devices including WLMPAV=NO for the devices defined in the OS. The reason we did this was for ease of volume maintenance, make them all PAV and not worry about it. Really the only access of these volumes from the producation LPAR is for backups once a week. I'm curious what the recommended way of defining these devices is for a situation like this? Should I be setting these devices as WLMPAV=NO on the production system (which blows the ease of maintenance idea). Would issues could I run into with the current setup? Thanks for the help!
