Once a dataset is already allocated, SMS doesn't touch it. There may be an issue if the dataset has to extend to a new volume, but I don't think so. I'm not a big fan of spill groups. Just re-assign the volumes in the extended pool to the primary storage group. - Too busy driving to stop for gas! ---------------------------------------------------------------------- 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
