Hi Lizette,
I've IBM TS7740 on 4 cluster grid with TS3500 tape libraries and I wanted
to have a cmd or ISPF panel that showed, in a quick way what jobs are using
tape,which tape drives and what volsers are currently allocating.

The D GRS,RES=(SYSZVOLS,*) shows everything besides tape drives, but ok,
that's not a big deal. I'll try Sam's utilities.

I've no EMC HW or CA tools. Only IBM tools.
I was also thinking about MXI with EDT parm.

Anyway, many thx for your reply.
Regards, Antonio Cecilio.
