Environment

Vantage

Resolution

The BVIR scripts need to run on one LPAR. In this case, 2 LPARS were sharing the same Vantage. Both LPARs were trying to execute the same script at the same time. This was causing the DATA ALREADY IN USE error. Add an SYSID= to the script so it will only execute on one LPAR.
