You can even relabel the volume before you shutdown without causing spool problems. Just make sure that you change the system config file and the volser in close proximity. You cannot change only one of them and ipl the system without causing spool errors.

As long as keep the same slot numbers, you can re-label the volume. Update your SYSTEM CONFIG with the new label, shutdown, re-label the volume, IPL. I am pretty sure this will work but you must test carefully. Aria From: The IBM z/VM Operating System [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Martin, Terry R.
