Merged idea
This idea has been merged into another idea. To comment or vote on this idea, please visit ZOS-I-3445 New function related to the MVS SWAP command(dynamic device reconfiguration (DDR)).

Would like the SWAP command to be available even if the tape data set is not opened. Merged

VTS (TS7720) cluster-1 was suddenly rebooted when many batch jobs were running at night.

27 batch jobs requested for mount tapes on cluster-1 , but could not get any reply from VTS due to the reboot.
The jobs were kept waiting for mount without error messages or abends .
SWAP command was failed : 'IGF512I SWAP FROM 0CF9 TERMINATED - NO USER FOUND'
We canceled and restarted them , however, it took us much time to check all steps of jobs.
We additionally needed to investigate whether other problems were caused or not by the cancel/restart operation.
Consequently, online-start-time was 2 hours behind due to the batch-job-end-time delay.
