I have lots of experience with VTAM - mainly in a hands-on education

How long is a piece of string?
The volumes are available instantly. The time to IPL would depend on the
tailoring required by your particular site - that is an issue the storage

How soon can you move the data offsite? As quickly as you can start your
backup jobs.

Hello Gil,
In the production environments that I am involved in, most TSO users are
not permitted to SUBMIT jobs.
The people schedulers have TSO access to the job scheduler product, and

Hi Chris!
I'm not an expert with VTAM, but I was investigating and I'm almost sure the
'problem' is there are several VTAM APPLs defined with ENCRYPTION optional.
I readed when two APPLs are defined as OPTIONAL, if there is some
cryptographic software installed on the system, they try to use it.

I was hoping to use the existing COUPLE dataset and the existing policy.
Since these datasets will be PPRC mirrored I was hoping to find a way to
not maintain 2 separate policy definitions so that the day-to-day policy
definitions would be automatically used at the DR location.
