Ginnie, I do not know of a way to do this without doing what I would consider abnormal things with the SMS ACDS configuration.
I still do not understand *WHY* you are trying to this by "management class". Are there specific "datasets" you are trying to handle separately? Maybe if you explained *explicitly* what you are trying to do, we may be able to devise a solution, albeit, one outside of normal HSM autobackup control.

We would like to run incremental backups just for a specific Management class at 5am. and not have this management class included again at 1am regardless of the last changed bit. (Just trying to keep it clean) .. however it would appear that running the backvol requires the AUTO BACKUP bit set to Y which would by default cause this management class to be included again at the 1am run .. is there anyway to manually submit an incremental backup against this management class only when we want to. thanks ---------------------------------------------------------------------- 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 LEGAL DISCLAIMER The information transmitted is intended solely for the individual or entity to which it is addressed and may contain confidential and/or privileged material.
