Within a single storage group, the only way I can think to do it is with 
Guarunteed Space & coding volser's.  I wouldn't recommend it though. 

What kind of environment to you have?  With Raid hardware, PAV's, etc., 
these datasets would have to be pretty hot to justify jumping through 
hoops to separate them.  Has anyone looked at any performance data to 
determine if this is justified?  Granted I'm not there to hear the 
discussions, but I have to wonder if applications is not operating on some 
very outdated assumptions.  It might be to your benefit to take a look at 
their reasoning.

Subject
dataset separation within a Storage Group






What is the best way to separate datasets within a storage group.

Applications  want  3 datasets  A.B.**   to always be allocated on 
different packs
than 3 datasets  A.C.**

These are small files, and I hate to waste an entire volume to create 
another STG GROUP...
just to isolate them...


Thanks,
Dave
