Anthony, Wanting to make sure what you are asking. Do you mean that you have two LPARs which share the same VTS hardware; however, don't share the TMC? If your answer is yes, then are you also asking about making sure that LPAR1 does not insert tapes from LPAR2 and vice versa?
If there are correct, then let me know. Using DEVSUP and minor exit changes to the CA-1 exits can take care of this without any issues. Currently running that way today with a TS7740 and I have 5 separate TMCs using the save hardware, different volumes, different DEVSUP and minor USERMOD changes to prevent he LPAR from picking up the wrong tapes.

Anthony, All CBRUXENT does for CA-1 is convert the 8-character library name to ROBTYP and ROBID. It's pretty straightforward. DEVSUPxx should make no difference.
