Re: Management classes and expiration dates revisited

Hello, I just ran into this on my jcl manual, it's a few years old but I imagine still holds true: With SMS, both the expiration date specified on EXPDT and defined in the data class for an SMS-managed data set can be limited by a maximum expiration date defined in the management class for

Re: Dataset Backup In HSM

In an SMS environment, the management class determines whether a backup is taken and in such a case, a file will not migrate or age off the system if no backup is taken. Thanks, Hervey -Original Message- From: IBM Mainframe Discussion List [mailto:IBM-MAIN@bama.ua.edu] On Behalf Of

Re: DFHSM QUESTION : Allocation/migration Threshold

2012-01-05 Thread Hervey Martinez
If there is no ML2 migration then everything is migrating to the ML1 pool and the ML1 pool may be full; if so, then it needs to be expanded. Normally, ML2 migration is governed by the management class; so, how do you keep this pool from ML2 migration? Also, Interval migration runs every hour on

I don't know of a utility to do this but what you can do is get a list of all GDG bases in question and alter the limit to '1'; the system will delete all but the newest one. You may want to this in batch otherwise, your TSO session will be locked until the task completes. Hervey

Re: Master Catalog query

2012-01-13 Thread Hervey Martinez
At one of the places I worked, we had several LPARS and each one of these had its own master cat. Each mast cat was then connected as a user cat to the other masters and vice versa. When we created alias', we had to define each alias in each master. Also, when doing catalog work, you had to

Re: 3390s on SAN?

2012-01-26 Thread Hervey Martinez
Well, you have to move out enough data to cover the number of TB that you're reconfiguring. For the most part, the Rank/array has to have enough contiguous data to carve out the volumes. In other words, if you want to carve out 1 TB of mod-9 volumes, then you have to have 1 tb of contiguous

The storage group is assigned by your SMS storage routines and it will be the one used for Storage Group. The Storage Group cannot be altered, it has to be assigned. Your Storage Admin person should know where these are how to update them. Thanks, Hervey -Original Message- From:

Re: System Dumps and SMS allocation fails

2012-02-10 Thread Hervey Martinez
When allocating files via SMS, the SMS attributes then either have to be explicitly assigned or allowed to be assigned. You mention that the DC is one that is not listed in the parmlib and the volume is a non-sms volume; thus, check your ACS routines for the SMS allocation of these files.

Re: User datasets wrongly catalogued under Master Catalogue

2012-02-29 Thread Hervey Martinez
Yes, it is possible to move files cataloged to the master onto an alias under a user catalog. It's been a while since I've done this but you probably have to define an alias different from the first level of your files. For example, if you have files, aaa.bbb that are defined to the master;
