It can become a problem if someone needs to make a change to the SCDS (such as update an ACS routine) and activate it while forgetting that some ACDS updates are not present in the SCDS. Once the SCDS is activated (which means it is copied to the ACDS), the previous ACDS updates disappear. So if the reason you disabled the volume is still valid, you would not be happy if it were suddenly re-enabled.
If the operator command you issued (such as V SMS,...) is intended to be a permanent fix to the problem at hand, once it has been satisfactorily tested I would immediately update the SCDS with the same change. That way, a future SCDS update will not introduce a regression problem. :>: -----Original Message----- :>: From: IBM Mainframe Discussion List [mailto:[email protected]] On :>: Behalf Of John Dawes :>: Sent: Friday, January 18, 2013 6:16 AM :>: To: [email protected] :>: Subject: Re: SMS COMMAND VIA BATCH :>: :>: Retired Mainframer, :>: :>: I think you hit the nail on the head.
