volumes. The host will overwrite the selected names.
Storage Class, Management Class, and Data Class. Select Default or one of the
8–character constructs.
The volser entry fields must contain six alphanumeric characters. The two
volsers must be entered in the same format. Corresponding characters in
each volser must both be either alphabetic or both be numeric. For
example, AAA998 and AAB004 are of the same form, but AA9998 and
AAB004 are not.
The volser is increased such that alphabetic characters are increased
alphabetically, and numeric characters are increased numerically. For
example, volser range ABC000–ABD999 would result in 2,000 volsers
(ABC000–ABC999 and ABD000–ABD999). Refer to "Choice of Volsers Upon
Logical Volume Insertion" on page 94 for more information about choosing
volser ranges.
These buttons allow you to select the type of physical cartridge the logical

class, storage class, and/or data class that the volser(s) should be assigned
to.
Note: The default constructs are indicated by eight dashes (--------).
These buttons allow you to select the VTS into which the logical volumes
will be inserted. Buttons are displayed only for the number of VTSs
installed.
