Thank you, Mark! I had the entry in the RMSMASTR on 2nd-level, but did not realize I'd need it defined in the 2nd-level guest itself. The errors are gone now. Regards, Dave

I have a 2nd-level 5.4 system I'm trying to set with DFSMS/VM's RMS component to talk to a virtual tape library. The drives are DEDICATED through the USER DIRECT entry. The system can SEE the drives as Tape drives when the devices are queried, but when RMS starts, it fails with the following errors: DMSACP723I D (192) R/O DMSACC724I 192 replaces D (192) DMSACP723I D (192) R/O 10:12:01 * MSG FROM RMSMASTR: DFSMS IS STARTING Name Entry Userword Origin Bytes Amode (Attributes) FSMDFSMS 01DDF988 00000000 01D88000 001A3368 31 PIPE 01803712 01F665A0 01803712 00000000 31 PIPMOD 01800000 01F665A0 01800000 0008F960 31 SYSTEM SERVICE IMMCMD DMSRTPRC 0179D9A0 00000000 0179D9A0 00040340 31 SYSTEM PERM DMSRTMSG 017DDCE0 00000000 017DDCE0 00000610 31 SYSTEM PERM NAMEFSYS 011D9460 01F61E58 011D9460 00000000 31 SYSTEM SERVICE NAMEFIND 011D9460 01FCE3A8 011D9460 00000000 31 SYSTEM SERVICE NAMEFUSE 011D9460 01F60E58 011D9460 00000000 31 SYSTEM SERVICE RXSOCKET 01897568 00000000 018973B8 00012A60 31 SYSTEM SERVICE DMSWRS 015FC218 00000000 015FC218 00003BD8 31 SYSTEM FSMBBV3053I All DFSMS local APPC/VM resources initialized FSMRMBLC==> Diag 254 is available TAPE 40CE ATTACHED TO RMSMASTR 40CE FSMBAC2006E Library I/O error; reason code = 3800, request identifier = 0, devic e = 40CE, library = FSMBAC2019E Sense Data = C0408027000000201000B320000000000000000040000000CE1F062 0F6290E00 TAPE 40CE DETACHED BY RMSMASTR TAPE 40CF ATTACHED TO RMSMASTR 40CF FSMBBD2241W Device 40CE could not be initialized FSMBAC2006E Library I/O error; reason code = 3800, request identifier = 0, devic e = 40CF, library = FSMBAC2019E Sense Data = C0408027000000201000B320000000000000000040000000CE1F062 0F6290F00 TAPE 40CF DETACHED BY RMSMASTR FSMBBD2241W Device 40CF could not be initialized FSMSMS3203I RMSMASTR is running When I look up the error FSMBAC2006E I don't find a lot of help. :-( The RMCONFIG DATA file contains the two drive addresses, 40CE & 40CF.
