To add DASD, you need to have it available on your FC SAN and have available FCP devices. For this, refer to your SAN documentation.

Then, in the define device screen, add a device, specify FBA SCSI and use the menus to provide the LUN and target WWN. Once this is done, reIPL.


Afterwards, you need to plot down a VTOC and init the DASD using ICKDSF. The following JCL template helps:

// JOB NEWDASD                                                       
// ASSGN SYS005,202                                                  
// ASSGN SYS006,203                                                  
// EXEC ICKDSF,SIZE=AUTO                                             
    INIT SYSNAME(SYS005) FBAVTOC(306176,228,8192) VOLID(CBR000) NOVFY
    INIT SYSNAME(SYS006) FBAVTOC(306176,228,8192) VOLID(CBR001) NOVFY
/*                                                                   
/&                                                                   


Make sure to ONLINE the DASD first on the console.

Output should be similar to:

// JOB NEWDASD                                                      DATE 03/17/2

Once you have a VTOC plotted down, you need to define a space to the VSAM catalogs you want to use the DASD for. To do this, go to FILE AND CATALOG MANAGEMENT and pick option 5 Display or Process a Catalog, Space

Define a space to the catalog you want to add the DASD to (I've used the master catalog on my setup), and fill out the form as below:
