Fellow listers,

Does anyone have a copy or format for using volutil in batch mode. I would
greatly appreciate the help.

Thanks in advance

Below is a command file that feeds a set of instructions into volutil. The
concept should be the same in batch. Commands directly related to volutil
are in red


PARM P1=$NULL,P2=$NULL,P3=$NULL,P4=$NULL,P5=$NULL,P6=$NULL,P7=$NULL
