Subject: Re: DFSMS/VM exit question - sharing 3494

I am more impressed by GOOGLE every day.  I entered "DFSMS/VM cbruxent 
exit" and it came back with info on it.  John Romanowski was replying
when 
I got into GOOGLE.  There is a ref. to the DSMRMSHR exit apparently
calling 
CBRUXENT.  It's in SG244409.  Looks like CBRUXENT is what gets run when
you 
insert cartridges in the robot.  I'm not running either, other than 
whatever came with DFSMS and your MVS guy is right, you can get to any 
cartridge in the 3494 without it.  Maybe my MVS guy trusts me or just 
assumed that I couldn't get to his tapes.  Hope he's not reading this.
