Anthony,
Okay. Just wanted to make sure before I gave you things that would not help
you.
It is not that bad and you just need to make sure of the following.
1) Make sure you do have a separate values in your DEVSUPxx for each LPAR. I
use the first two positions as my LPAR and leave the last two to match the
defaults. Example, MEDIA1=1001, MEDIA2=1002,.....MEDIA10=100A,ERROR=100E and
PRIVATE=100F for LPAR1 and then use 20xx for LPAR2.
2) You need to make sure you have USERMOD CL05244 installed. Make sure you
update CTSUXENT with your library name(s).
3) In your CTSUXENT module, add some code like the code below. Pay attention
that columns 72-80 are important to insert into the correct location of your
current source. My code is set up to perform this check at the very beginning
so that we don't do anything if the tape is not correct. I have the sequence
numbers set to update the mode and added in after the Load Address (LA) of
ATLTABLE into R9 and before the ATLFIND DSECT. In the case below, it could
have been done with one check; however, it was set up to allow for multiple
prefixes, if needed.
./ CHANGE NAME=CTSUXENT
* ******************************************************************** 01790100
* @MYCO - ADDED THE VOLUME SECTIONS TO ONLY PROCESS THE REQUIRED * 01790110
* TAPES DEPENDING ON THE LPAR AND LEAVE THE REMAINING * 01790120
* TAPES FOR THE OTHER OAM SYSTEMS TO PROCESS. MVSX LPAR * 01790130
* ******************************************************************** 01790140
CHKVOL DS 0H 01790150
CLC WKVOLSER(2),=C'XN' IS THIS A MVSX NATIVE ATL2? 01790200
BE ACCTAPE NO LEAVE FOR OTHER OAM 01790210
CLC WKVOLSER(1),=C'X' IS THIS A MVSX VIRTUAL VTS2? 01790220
BNE RC16 NO LEAVE FOR OTHER OAM 01790230
ACCTAPE DS 0H 01790240
* @MYCO - END OF MYCO CUSTOM CODE 01790250
* ******************************************************************** 01790260
4) Make sure your CA-1 version of CBRUXENT, CBRUXEJC and CBRUXVNL are applied
to the z/OS system to override the IBM RMM default delivered in LINKLIB.
5) Make sure CA-1 is up and running BEFORE OAM is started. IF not, the exits
will not be there to REJECT the tapes.
I hope this helps. Please feel free to contact me off-line if needed.
Thanks,
Craig

Yes, that is exactly the environment.

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.
Thanks,
Craig

There are two operating modes which have different DEVSUP settings and
different CA-1 TMC setups.

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.
