VMOUNT
Enables or disables the MPE/iX movable volume facility. (Native Mode)
Syntax
VMOUNT {ON[,AUTO]}[;ALL]
{OFF }
Parameters
ON or ON,AUTO Enables the movable volume facility so that all
valid user MOUNT/VSRESERVE and operator
LMOUNT/VSRESERVESYS requests are allowed. When ON
is used without AUTO, the operator must reply to
all MOUNT/VSRESERVE requests.
When ON,AUTO is used, MPE/iX attempts to
satisfy user MOUNT/VSRESERVE and operator
LMOUNT/VSRESERVESYS requests without operator
intervention.
OFF Requests to use the movable volume facility are
rejected.
ALL Prints all volume set mount-related console
messages, including those not requiring operator
intervention, on the console.
Operation Notes
If the movable volume facility is enabled when you issue a VMOUNT OFF
command, users having reserved volume sets are unaffected; the command is
satisfied when the last access is complete.
The MPE/iX naming convention for volume sets differs from that of MPE V/E
for private volumes. Refer to the MOUNT, DISMOUNT, VSRESERVE, and
VSRELEASE commands in this chapter.
Once the movable volume facility has been enabled, use the VSUSER command
to determine which users have which volume sets reserved. Refer to the
VSUSER command in this chapter.
The movable volume facility is enabled immediately following a system
startup. (The setting is equivalent to VMOUNT ON,AUTO.) However, you
still receive console messages concerning volume set requests.
The operator has the greatest interactive control over the use of volume
sets by using VMOUNT ON;ALL. The command that least interrupts the
operator when users are accessing volume sets is VMOUNT ON,AUTO.
Use
This command may be issued from a session, job, program, or in BREAK.
Pressing Break has no effect on this command. It may be issued only from
the console unless distributed to users with the ALLOW command.
Examples
To disable the movable volume facility so that no messages are sent to
the console when users attempt to reserve volume sets (the default
condition) enter:
VMOUNT OFF
To disable the movable volume facility and still receive messages on the
console when users attempt to reserve volume sets, enter:
VMOUNT OFF;ALL
