Maybe more of a generic way that doesn't depend on any specific OS....use a
SQL command:

select 'checkout libv ' || trim(library_name) || ' ' || trim(volume_name) ||
' checkl=no rem=no' from libvolumes

and pipe this to a file. You can then run it in as a MACRO libr Lindsay
suggests. You may have to SET SQLDISPLAYMODE WIDE to get it all on one line.

This doesn't rely on cat....awk.....MSWord...or any utility. Just a TSM
admin client.

There's more than one way to skin a cat! :-) Whatever you're comfortable
with. Myself, with going to different client sites with different systems, I
just don't like to come to rely on a solution on a particular platform. No
offense intended!

Just my $.02 worth.
