Hello

Allocation Control Center (ACC) from DTS Software can set the SMS Classes so 
you could use instead of robust ACS routines. ACC can also set fields so you 
would not have to have one DATACLAS with RLSE set and one without. We have 
customers that use ACC to override SMS classes like if the MGMTCLAS is xxxx 
then the STORCLAS should not be yyyy.

SMS/Debug is part of ACC and also sold as a separate product. SMS/Debug can 
trace your ACS routine, both the Active SCDS and an SCDS, includes a testing 
environment similar to Naviquest but you can NOT use SMS/Debug to replace ACS 
routines. It is great for answering the question "How did this dataset end up 
in that STORCLAS".  It also includes SMS Volume Selection tracing and DADSM 
exit tracing.

Sorry for the commercial but I just wanted to clear up the discussion.

Subject: Re: SMS ACS Routine Coding

Lizette,

be careful, SMS Debug doesn't translate the ACS Routines, it's just a trace for 
tell wich volume is used and why. But sometimes it's difficult to write a new 
ACS or upgrade an old ACS. With SMS Debug, you can make the same thing with a 
language easier than ACS and more understanding. It wil be easier to modify the 
rules after, and the rules are dynamycs, you can change the rules at any time 
and make a refresh by a command on the console F DIF,REFRESH. The language is 
just a part of ACC.

I hope that you understand my english.

Marc.
