Donna, This doesn't seem right. It seems to me that ALL groups have to be created on the MPEXL_SYSTEM_VOLUME_SET. Only those groups that you want on a private volume have to be created on the private volume with NEWGROUP XYZ;ONVS=PRIVATE_VOLUME_SET and then do a ALTGROUP XYZ;HOMEVS=PRIVATE_VOLUME_SET. Isn't this the way it works?
