What makes you think the backup options have anything to do with migration destinations?
What is the exact migration command you issued? What are the migration attributes of the management class? -----Original Message----- From: IBM Mainframe Discussion List [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of willie bunter Sent: Monday, November 22, 2010 5:51 AM To: [email protected] Subject: Re: DFHSM MIGRATE MYSTERY Mike, I took your advice and set the MANAGEMENT CLASS AUTO BACKUP=Y. As a test I created a new dsn using the same HLQ's and Management Class. I tried the MIGRATE command via batch (using wild cards) it went to ML1 instead of ML2 which was NOT happening before I changed the AUTO BACKUP from N to Y. I did a LISTCAT of the dsn but it shows that no backup was done. Inspite of this the dsn was sent to ML1. Not sure why LBACKUP ---0000.000.0000 If I understand Joel's post correctly in which he says that "Migration Attributes for primary and level 1 only apply to auto migration" then the dsn should not have been sent to ML1 but directly to ML2. Any suggestions? ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to [email protected] with the message: GET IBM-MAIN INFO Search the archives at http://bama.ua.edu/archives/ibm-main.html
