Beginning with z/OS 1.5, DSS supports copying HFS data sets (you had to
dump and then restore them before that).  You will need to unmount them
in order to copy them.

In order to change a data set from being SMS managed to a non-SMS
managed data set with DSS, you will need to specify BYPASSACS(dsn),
NULLSTORCLAS, and NULLMGMTCLAS.  You will also need to specify OUTDDNAME
or OUTDYNAM to point to the volume you want the target data set
allocated on.

Subject: HFS file question related to SMS management

I have some DB2-product ("DBS") HFS files that were built on an
SMS-managed volume last year when we were still under OS/390-2.10.  The
DBA who installed the product and built the files is no longer here.

We are currently on z/OS-1.6 and our system OMVS HFS files are not SMS
managed.

Could I use DFDSS to move the DBS files (that are currently SMS-managed)
to a non-SMS volume (removing them from SMS management) with no harm to
the file access?
