Check Volumes
Refer to “Checking Volumes” in Chapter 5 , “Modifying Your System,” for additional
information about these steps. For more information on VOLUTIL commands, refer to the

(MPEXL_SYSTEM_VOLUME_SET) disk drives (except LDEV1).
1. Log on, start the spooler, and streams device.
:HELLO MANAGER.SYS,INSTALL;HIPRI

streams_device
where
streams_device
is the device number. A common
streams_device
value is 10.
An LP device must be configured in SYSGEN. Already spooled and streamed messages
might display.

volumes showing a status of LONER must be added using the VOLUTIL utility.
