we have run into an issue where compaktor is running on sys1 and df/dss is running data set backup's on sys2. what appears to happen is that when compaktor is working a volume that dss is backing up from, data sets go 'missing' unitl compaktor is done. the dss backup spits out an ADR321E data set not on volume but finds the data set when the backup job is resubmitted and compaktor has released the volume. The dss parms specifiy tol(enqF). We use GRS-star, do not globally convert all reserves, do have this coded RNLDEF RNL (CON) TYPE (GENERIC) QNAME (SYSVTOC) I suspect this is just a timing matter and the defrags shouldn't be running in the storage group where batch production is running, but thought I would ask if I'm may be missing anything in the RNL's or with Compaktor.
Jerry, as others said, please call us with question, any time.
What is happening: during the COMPAKTion, CPK protects the datasets selected for movement by changing the last character in the dataset name to lower case. We also exclusively ENQ on SYSDSN for each dataset, and we hold a SYSVTOC ENQ across the whole process, but those two ENQs can be overridden. The dsname change is an extra protection
