Allan, Thanks for clearing that up for me. Just to inquire about the suggestion to force a backup - F DFHSM,BACKVOL CDS. I assume that this goes to disk. Am I right? Can I force the backup to tape? If so how would I do that? Also, since I am unable to get this fixed, I have scheduled a shutdown of DFHSM, execute a DFDSS backup of the MCDS to tape. Could you please tell me what is the significance of the disk backup copies? I checked to see if DFHSM is using them (TSO command ISRDDN E) but I don't see anything. What is the danger if I the disk backup has failed? I am not familiar with this portion of DFHSM any information that you could provide would be very helpful. Thanks

Delete and redefine all backup copies with the current size as the primary allocation. Them force a backup with F DFHSM,BACKVOL CDS You might also check the blocksize of the backups for 1/2 track blocking. HTH, I am stumped with solving this space abend problem : IEC030I B37-04,IFG0554A,DFHSMC,DFHSMC,SYS00005,BD53,SBH124,HSM.MCDS CKUP.X0006033 ---------------------------------------------------------------------- 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 --------------------------------- Get your email and more, right on the new Yahoo.com ---------------------------------------------------------------------- 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
