TS7700 open Logical Volume by two JOBs using FlashCopy function

  • 1.  TS7700 open Logical Volume by two JOBs using FlashCopy function

    Posted Tue December 24, 2024 02:42 PM

    Hello,

    I wonder if the TS7700 Flashcopy  for DR test, allows opening same Logical Volume name in parallel by two different jobs running in different z/OS systems. 

    I mean,

    One job running in z/OS "production" reading the original Logical Volume and other job running in z/OS "DR" reading the Flashcopy copy.

    I understand of course that if original volume is updated the Flashcopy copy remains at its created state.

    Thank you,

    Arye Shemer
