Before you can use DFSMSrmm with DFSMShsm, you are required to authorize DFSMShsm to STGADMIN.EDG.MASTER, STGADMIN.EDG.OWNER.user, and STGADMIN.EDG.RELEASE.

If you have multiple DFSMShsm USER IDs, for example in a multi-system or multi-host environment, and any DFSMShsm ID can create tapes or return tapes to scratch status or return tapes to the DFSMShsm tape pool, you must authorize each DFSMShsm USER ID. Define STGADMIN.EDG.OWNER.hsmid for each DFSMShsm USER ID and give the other DFSMShsm USER IDs UPDATE access to it.

See Authorizing DFSMSrmm users and ensuring security for information about authorizing resources.

Table 1 shows the authorization required to use scratch tapes with DFSMShsm.

Table 2 shows the authorization required to use DFSMShsm with a DFSMShsm-managed scratch tape pool.
