- If you don't have a 3390-3, you can't get a current product mix onto
- one volume. So, I'd recommend the following split:
- SYSRES - all target libraries (controlled by SMP)
- DLIBvol - all dist libraries (controlled by SMP)
- othervol - anything not owned by the MVS SMP zones.
- You can have two SYSRES and two DLIB vols. For SYSRES, use indirect
- cataloging for everything. There isn't actually any point in having
- two dlib vols, because they're only modified by ACCEPT, and a problem
- doesn't make the system non-runnable. If for some reason you want to
- have two dlib vols, be sure to code UNIT and VOLUME on the DDDEFs for
- every dataset. In fact, you need to do this for two SYSRES vols
- anyway...
-
- I hope I'm not the only one who remembers when target+dlib+smp(4) fit
- on *one* 3350 single. And it wasn't _that_ long ago that target fit
- on a 3380 standard, and dlib fit on a 3380 standard...
