Richard,

"After further review" you are right.  Two volumes with the same volser 
cannot be attached to CP.  Since the sysres is attached during IPL, it's 
the only CP-attached sysres volser that matters.

To provide the complete answer, using your Pipe (which has the advantage 
of not needing to run under rexx):

pipe cp q alloc all | take last | cons | spec /q dasd/ 1 w-1 nw | cp | 
pick w3 == /CP/ | cons  

Thanks!

Re: How to determine SYSRES






Mike, 

The Pipe-generated "Q DASD volser" does tell you the RDEV. If you want to 
quibble about the possibility of a second device that is FREE, then add a 
"| locate / CP /"

Regards, 
Richard Schuh
