Adding software product volumes

z/OS DFSMSrmm Managing and Using Removable Media
SC23-6873-00

If you specified YES in the Add Volumes? field on the Add Product Details panel, DFSMSrmm displays the Add Product Volume panel so you can add information about the product volumes.

  1. Enter the volume serial number, a rack number or pool ID, a feature code, a media name, and a location for each volume you want to associate with the software product. You can only enter information about one volume at a time. When you use the DFSMSrmm ISPF dialog to add software products, DFSMSrmm sets the retention period to 90 days, and the return to owner release action. Press PF1 for field-specific help information. See z/OS DFSMSrmm Implementation and Customization Guide for information on how to change these values if necessary.

    If a volume you specify has the same volume serial number as a volume already defined to DFSMSrmm, you might want to replace the old volume. For example, if you are adding a new release of a software product, you might want to consider disposing of the older release and deleting the volume information from DFSMSrmm. If you keep the older release, you must redefine the old software product volume before you can add the new software product volume, to avoid duplicate volume serial numbers.

    See Defining volumes for more information on redefining volumes to avoid duplicate volume serial numbers.

  2. Press ENTER to associate a volume with the product.
