Since these volumes are in ADDVOL commands, I will presume that they are not SMS managed.
To remove the volumes: HSEND MIGRATE VOL(volser) DAYS(0) ML2 (wait for completion) HSEND DELVOL volser PRIMARY Then delete the volumes from ARCCMDxx. If the volumes are SMS managed, set the status to DISNEW and then use the procedure above. HTH <snip> There are primary volume(s) I would like to remove from DFHSM as they are small volumes. We are at z/Os 1.9. I have nine volumes defined in the ADDVOL section as primary volumes. I would like to 'phase out' three of them. Without losing and data, what is the best method to get DFHSM to move files off and not use them any longer? </snip> ---------------------------------------------------------------------- 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
