Paul,
You should be able to allocate & format the volume dynamically and then add
it to your TSM server. You shouldn't have to stop/start the server at all.
(At least I never have...) Then you should be able to define the new db or
log volume to your tsm server. If you have any questions about how we do
this, just let me know. Good luck!!!

Hi,
TSM Server (Version 5.1.8.0) running on OS390 2.10 (in the near future
Z/OS)
Up to now I always halted the TSM Server to define & format additional
volumes
See example JCL below :
//ALLOCAT EXEC PGM=IDCAMS
//SYSPRINT DD SYSOUT=*
//SYSIN DD *
DEFINE CLUSTER(NAME(ADSM.DB06) LINEAR MB(2341) VOL(ADSM21))
/*
//ADSMFMT EXEC PGM=DSMFMT,DYNAMNBR=300,COND=(0,NE,ALLOCAT),
// PARM='/ADSM.DB06'
//OPT DD DSN=ADSM.ANRSERV.OPTIONS,DISP=SHR
//DSMAMENG DD DSN=TIVSM.V5R1M0.SANRMSG(ANRMENU),DISP=SHR
//SYSPRINT DD SYSOUT=*
//SYSTERM DD SYSOUT=*
//*
Because the TSM Server options file (//OPT) is in exclusive use by the TSM
started task
I have to stop the TSM Server before being able to execute the format job.
Up to now there was no real problem with halting the server for a few
minutes to do this, but it is becoming
more and more difficult (even impossible) to find a moment where I can
stop the server (due to API-clients
which are accessing the server randomly) without causing archive/restore
problems.
I think this problem should be solved by simply using another options file
name (which is a copy from the original one)
for the format job (and TSM Server keeps running in the meantime).
Can I do this ? Or do I forget something and MUST I stop the TSM Server ?
Thanks for any info.
Best regards,
Paul Van de Vijver
