Bob, I too cannot understand why the request was to put the vol. under CA-Allocate. Just to clarify one of your recommendations to "DFSMSdss CONVERTV NONSMS to make it a non-SMS volume" I read up on the section in the DFSMSdss user guide but it did not provide me with an example. Can you please direct me to where I can find an example. I noticed that in the guide that I am using (DFDSS.dgt2u250) that I have there are no examples provided. Maybe, I missed it.

It is valid for non-managed volumes too. 2) Remove the volume from the SG construct 3) Run DFSMSdss CONVERTV NONSMS to make it a non-SMS volume 4) Do the T-V-A part. 5) Ask yourself why you are still using CA-ALLOCATE Bob Richards -----Original Message----- From: IBM Mainframe Discussion List [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of John Dawes Sent: Thursday, September 14, 2006 4:54 PM To: [email protected] Subject: Re: SMS Question : Remove Lone Volume from SMS It is a bit complicated. The request was to remove the volume from SMS and add that same volume to CA-ALLOCATE.

By the way, the DSN references in the SC and DC routines doesn't have any general relationship to the volume (though you may have it set up so a particular DSN always goes to a particular volume).
