Good Morning Readers, The MCDS of one of our DFHSM environments has grown by 30% over the last few months and we are performing reorgs of the file as a temporary measure. We have taken the decsion to reallocate the MCDS on a MOD-9. According to the DFHSM IMPLEMENTATION AND CUSTOMIZATION guide this is the correct decision. Below is my plan. Can you tell me if there is something that I should add or needs correction? - Shutdown DFHSM. Alter rename the current MCDS name to .OLD - Create new storage group in SMS. I plan to call the new storage group HSMEXTD - Add the volume in storage group HSMEXTD - Modify ACS routine (filter list) of the storage group to include the new storage group. - Modify the SELECT statement to include the new storage group. - Perform the translate, validate and activate functions in SMS. - Allocate MCDS (using the same name as in the STC) with new space (75,000) tracks on a MOD-9. - Repro records from the .OLD to the current dsn - Bring up the STC DFHSM - Perform tests : i.e. migrate and recall. Perform the regorg. Does this look okay? If someone has encountered any problems performing this please let me know. Thanks for your time.
