Can also be used in VERIFY(volser,ownerid) statement, or
z/OS SMS reserved storage pool.
?I wonder if a security server can use the field?

OWNERID(owner) OWNER Writes the owner identification in the volume or
minidisk label. For owner, substitute 1 to 14 alphanumeric characters
for the owner identification to be written in the volume or minidisk
label. To assign a reserved volume to a reserve storage pool, specify
IBMRSPrspname for owner, where rspname is the 1 to 8 character reserve
storage pool name. Use the RESERVED parameter to mark a volume as
reserved. Default: The default for owner during a first-time
initialization is 14 blanks. If you do not specify OWNERID when
reinitializing a previously initialized volume, the owner
identification remains unchanged. Restrictions: Not valid with the
CLEAROWNERID or RESERVEPOOLNAME parameter.

RESERVEPOOLNAME (pool-name) RSPNAME Writes the reserve storage pool
name in the owner identification field of the volume or minidisk
label. For pool-name substitute 1 to 8 alphanumeric characters for the
reserve storage pool name. This pool name will be prefixed with
'IBMRSP' and written in the owner identification field of the volume
or minidisk label. Default: None. Restrictions: Requires the RESERVED
parameter. Not valid with the OWNERID or CLEAROWNERID parameter.
Page 208
UNRESERVED Specifies that the volume previously marked as reserved
using the RESERVED parameter is to be initialized as a non-reserved
volume. A volume that has been marked as reserved is not to be
confused with a device for which a system issues a hardware RESERVE,
either through the RESERVE or ISGENQ macros, to ensure successful
serialization of shared DASD. For more information, refer to “RESERVED
parameter: mark the volume as reserved so that it cannot come online”
on page 172. Default: If you do not specify the OWNERID or
CLEAROWNERID parameter, the owner identification in the volume or
minidisk label is replaced by blanks if it begins with 'IBMRSP'.
Restrictions: Not valid with the RESERVED parameter

Hello there :)
I am trying to understand the following command to initialize a DASD
//EXAMPLE JOB
// EXEC PGM=ICKDSF
//SYSPRINT DD SYSOUT=A
//SYSIN DD *
INIT UNITADDRESS(0353) NOVERIFY VOLID(VOL123) -
OWNERID(PAYROLL)
/*
What is the purpose of the OWNERID? Does it have any effect in MVS or is it just a piece of text for humans?
Kind Regards
