If that is your scenario then you should be using 'unmount' for the automove parameter. Noautomove can still leave entries in the global mount table for these filesystems even though the system is down. That is usually not a big issue unless you have the need to mount them on another system for some reason (maintenance or problem determination, etc).

Each one has its own set of OMVS datasets. For example Lpar1 has SYS1.OMVS.ROOT.LPAR1, SYS1.OMVS.JV390.LPAR1, SYS1.OMVS.SGIYROOT.LPAR1 and so on. Lpar2 has a duplicate set of files that end with LPAR2 rather LPAR1 And so forth. I see in syslog that the LPAR2 gets an IGW026I message trying to mount the LPAR1 dataset. This is not needed nor required. Each system has its own set. I was thinking that setting the files to NOAUTOMOVE would prevent another system from trying to mount them.
