Hi
We have a VSAM extended dataset that have filled a 3390-9 volume and we need to
reallocate it.
But……
I’m not sure I understand how it was allocated the way it is.
Currently:
The dataset is on one volume and is 149.700 tracks (data), 308 tracks (index).
Data and index are on same volume.
The dataclass has a blank volume count.
The IDCAMS input used to allocate with is:
DEFINE-
CLUSTER-
(NAME(PROD.AMB.AMBARKIV)-
FREESPACE(0,0)-
VOLUME(* *) -
CYL(12000 50)-
SUBAL SPEED NWCK-
RECORDSIZE(150,1582)-
TO(2049365)-
SHR(2)-
IXD-
DATACLASS(VSAMEXT) -
KEYS(14,0))-
DATA-
(NAME(PROD.AMB.AMBARKIV.DATA)-
CISZ(8192))-
INDEX-
(NAME(PROD.AMB.AMBARKIV.INDX)-
CISZ(1024))
What I do not understand is why the dataset do not allocate a secondary extend
on a new volume in the storagegroup – there is free space in the storagegroup.
The ‘VOLUME(* *)’ parameter should overwrite the volume count attribute in the
dataclass or….?
I would like to avoid a similar allocation and have the new version allocated
on at least 2 volumes.
