manual Pairing for DFSMShsm frbackup

We use the frbackup command for copying our DB2 Environment in a new SYSPLEX. Therefor it is necessary that the first Volume of the source SG is copied to the first Volume in the backup Pool. The HSM make these Pairing more or less randomized. So it will be a possible alternative to make these Pairs manual with a command.

    This item is a valid requirement but unlikely to be given high enough priority to be placed into the product plan. Please reach out to Glenn Wilcock (wilcock@us.ibm.com) on a strategic direction that we are taking FRBACKUP that will address this in a different manner.

    IBM understands this requirement and the value of the function. At this time, IBM cannot commit to a delivery of this function, but it will be maintained as a candidate in our backlog of requirements.
