Hi!

UNIT=LCAP,VOL(,,,20)

could you please let me know what this is?

Thanks in advance.

claustrog,

Lcap seems to be a Group name defined in your shop. Group-name requests one of a group of devices using an esoteric name, such as TAPE, SYSDA, or SYSALLDA - these names vary by installation, so consult your System Programmer to obtain a valid list for your installation The group-name is 1 through 8 alphanumeric characters.

Hope this helps...

Cheers

thanks for that..
but what about the 3 default parameters given for vol?
vol=(, , ,20)
what are they for? is it for selecting any 3 vols of the device type specified by LCAP? if so, the what could 20 imply?
