Fish and Bob (Bolch),
Nothing that you wrote was incorrect, and nothing that I wrote
in the original post was incorrect either. I didn't say that
one could not use a copy of the same dasds for second level
(whether actual copies or just different shadows), I said I did
not recommend it.

VM/370 is not z/VM. It's not that it can't be done. But I
wouldn't recommend it for a first-timer.
Fair enough.
But IMO, as long as the person in question is at least not a first-timer when it comes to VM/370 itself (i.e. as long as they're familiar with (have at least *some* experience with) setting up a new VM/370 userid )i.e. VM guest)), then whether they're a first-timer at setting up a 2nd-level VM or not, is fairly immaterial. If you can setup a new guest under VM/370, then you can certainly setup a second-level VM/370 system under VM/370. It's really no different. It's just another VM user after all!
