John - No directory blocks in this case. They want a PS file but never coded the DSORG.
I was going to have them update their JCL with the DSORG parameter, but I'm also thinking I can handle it within SMS with a separate filterlist of specific names in addition to the filterlist which uses masking as we were doing before. With a test for a specific dsn, I don't need to be concerned about the dsntype at all. The dataset ended up with just under 9000 cylinders used space; the compressed version is less than 1/5th that size... so I definitely want it compressed. ddk >>Are your users coding directory blocks in their space parameter? &DSORG >>should be set to PO if there is a value coded. >>Regards, >>John ************************************************************************************** This e-mail message and all attachments transmitted with it may contain legally privileged and/or confidential information intended solely for the use of the addressee(s).
