TS7700 request multi jobs to read in parallel one virtual read-only volume

  • 1.  TS7700 request multi jobs to read in parallel one virtual read-only volume

    Hell TS7700 experts,

    A customer requested to find out if there is an option to have multi jobs reading in parallel one virtual read-only volume.
    Apparently customer is using  many TS7700 virtual volumes as temporary storage (instead of on disks), hence the need for parallelism.


    Thank you,
    Arye Shemer.

    I do not believe that is supported. Please search and read documents regarding IBM VTMF, which does support PAT (Parallel Access Tape).
