We are currently converting some VSAM files from using BMC's Data Accelerator to using SMS compression. I am doing this by changing the DATACLAS of the cluster to DCEXTC which specifies SMS compression. I am assigning this DATACLAS specifically in my DEFINE by using DATACLAS(DCEXTC). And I am also listing them in a FILTLIST in my DATACLAS ACS routine so that they will be assigned this DATACLAS even if someone redefines them and forgets to specify the DATACLAS. Now, many of these cluster have alternate indices. I've noticed that the DATACLAS assigned to these AIXes is our normal DATACLAS of DCEXT. Am I correct in my assumption that it doesn't really matter? I don't think the AIX data needs to be compressed, just the CLUSTER data.
