The panel in Example 14-9 on page 310 provides a list in the lower third of the screen where
you can specify ranges of VOLSERs, which will then be changed all at once. This is,
therefore, more powerful than the SMS system commands, which are on a single volume
level only.
The following panel in this sequence, shown in Example 14-10, is a confirmation panel that
displays the current SMS volume status which we plan to alter. It also shows the system
names which belong to the SMS-plex. A SMS-plex is usually congruent with the underlying
Parallel Sysplex®.

In this panel we overtype the SMS volume status with the desired status change. This shows
in the following panel, shown in Example 14-11 on page 312.
