Use the VOLUME record to define a real DASD volume that CA VM:Director can control.
VOLUME volser devtype
VOLUME is defined in the DASD CONFIG file.
Specifies the DASD volume serial number.
Specifies the DASD device type. All device types supported by any z/VM system for virtual machine minidisks are valid and any customized names defined on DEVTYPE records.
Each DASD volume identified to CA VM:Director can contain extents from which minidisks are allocated. For more information, see EXTENT Record.
Minidisks can exist on volumes not listed in the DASD CONFIG file; however, CA VM:Director cannot detect overlapping minidisk definitions on uncontrolled volumes. Also, directory managers cannot use CA VM:Director to allocate new minidisks on these volumes.
Volumes dedicated to specific guest virtual machines need not be identified to CA VM:Director.
You cannot continue VOLUME records beyond one line.
Example
This VOLUME record identifies a 3380 DASD device with a volser of VMPK02:
VOLUME VMPK02 3390
Note: For more information, see VOLUME Records in the Administration Guide.
