Hi Lizette, The fact that the message is repeated over and over again doesn't bother me. The fact that one of my volumes PPRD46 can't be paired with a copy pool volume bothers me.
One more thing I'm on z/OS V1R11 not V1R13 and I turn on and off the patch by sending a command to DFSMShsm, I don't have it my ARCCMD00 member.
