The utility does not rely on TSM's API for communications to ACSLS and can be run on a system where TSM is not present. http://greshamstorage.com/freeware/worldwide-name-mapping-utility Andrew -----Original Message----- From: Andrew Davies Sent: Thursday, February 02, 2012 9:09 AM To: ADSM-L@VM.MARIST.EDU Subject: RE: Device mapping utility That is correct, you should first cease all mount activity on the system where you run the utility. If you do not do this, I/O can be interrupted on the local system where the utility is being run. In a shared drive environment you can use the utility even when drives are in use by other initiators in the environment.
