Insert Initiates the insert operation. The number of volumes that will be inserted is
displayed for operator confirmation. Select Yes to proceed with the insert or
No to abort the insert.
A check is made to make sure that the total number of logical volumes for
the 3494 library does not exceed the maximum allowable number. If the
insert would result in more than the maximum allowable number of logical
volumes in the 3494 library, an error message is displayed and the insert is
aborted.

logical volumes may be assigned to each VTS subsystem in any quantity,
