Each VLPOOL command defines a pool. Each generic shelf location defined by PREFIX must be unique. If you do not specify any VLPOOL commands, or do not specify a VLPOOL command for POOL(*), DFSMSrmm automatically creates a default pool definition that includes all the shelf locations and volumes in them. The defaults for this pool are:

VLPOOL RACF(N) TYPE(S) EXPDTCHECK(O) MEDIANAME(parmlib_default_medianame) -
