Daniel,
For our JES2 guests, we attach tape drives to all the guests using
ATTACH or DEDICATE with the MULTIUSER option. The guests run CA's MIA
product to control sharing. We also use MIA on our JES2 LPAR systems.
Our JES3 LPAR systems use JES3's own tape sharing support. This
requires multi-system assign, which is not supported for guests using
MULTIUSER. We don't want to make our test guests different than the
LPAR systems that they model, so we don't run MIA on the JES3 guests.
We just don't share drives between them.

Subject: [IBMVM] Tape Drives in z/OS under z/VM
For those of you who run z/OS under z/VM, how do you handle tape drives
?
In a native LPAR sysplex, all z/OS systems have access to all the tape
drives.
Is there a way to share a tape drive between z/OS systems running under
z/VM ?
