New VOLUME command (performance) options

The VOLUME command displays on the console a short summary of the volumes on disk or tape devices. The output shows volume usage, volumes that are shared with other systems, device capacity, device type and more. The volume command senses all devices for that information, which can take some time on large configurations, especially if you added dummy devices for later use e.g. for VTAPEs or VDISKs (no VTAPE / VDISK defined, or not backed by real devices). For dummy devices the z/VSE Supervisor has to scan all I/O subchannels to verify, if there... [More]

I recommend to upgrade to z/VSE 6.2 as soon as possible to stay in a serviced environment for a long term, because z/VSE 5.2 service ends October 31, 2018 and z/VSE 6.1 service ends June 30, 2019.   You can order z/VSE 6.2 via IBM Shopz - here . You need to license all products that you require on z/VSE 6.2, even if they come with the z/VSE 6.2 base or extended base, such as CICS TS for z/VSE 2.2, IBM TCP/IP for z/VSE 2.2 or IBM IPv6/VSE 1.3 - see the z/VSE 6.2 Program Directory for details -  here .   If you want to order z/VSE...
