Defining paths from the storage agent to the z/OS media server

You must define a path from the storage agent to the z/OS media server library resource. A z/OS media server can manage both FILE and TAPE volume resources.

Procedure

Define a path for a z/OS media library by using the DEFINE PATH command.

For example, to define a path to a z/OS media library, that contains 3592 devices:

define path sta1 zos3592lib srctype=server desttype=library zosmediaserver=srv1zos

The zosmediaserver=srv1zos server definition is also defined between the IBM Storage Protect server and the z/OS media server.
