Mike, I went back to the storage guy. He said that the problem was with the absence of candidate volumes being defined. Did some ALTER ADDVOL(s) and all is well in the SHARK pool again.

This should not be an issue when moving data sets. I am not sure I understand what type of problem you are encountering. -----Original Message----- From: IBM Mainframe Discussion List [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Clark, Kevin Sent: Tuesday, April 10, 2007 10:02 AM To: [email protected] Subject: VSAM Extent Reduction - Any way to disable for selected jobs Anyone, This enhancement introduced with DFSMS 1.5 is causing my Storage Admin so pain. We want to disable this when moving certain groups of dataset to maintain the extents which fit better with other datasets on the target volumes during reorganizations. The datasets are DB2 linear, so the IMBED, Replicate, RLS, Keyranges exceptions don't apply. Is there a way to stop the automatic EOV consolidation of extents. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- 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 ---------------------------------------------------------------------- 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
