Additional Storage Administration Functions

z/OS V1R11.0 DFSMSdfp Storage Administration z/OS V1R10.0-V1R11.0 SC26-7402-13

The following are additional storage administration functions:

    QSAVE and QRETRIEV ISMF commands

    The QSAVE and QRETRIEV ISMF commands let you save a "query" of frequently 
used parameters under ISMF. You can then retrieve the parameters by their query 
names. The QSAVE and QRETRIEV ISMF commands can be used while running the ISMF 
data set list or volume list options, interactively or in batch.
    Model Command Generator (ACBQFLM1 EXEC for saved ISMF lists and ACBQADM2 
EXEC for DCOLLECT data)

    The Model Command Generator option creates a "model" command against each 
entry in a data set saved ISMF list, a saved ISMF volume list, or from DCOLLECT 
data. NaviQuest does the symbolic substitution.
    COPYFILT macro

Using the COPYFILT macro you can create synchronized filter lists (FILTLISTs) 
that can be applied across all ACS routines. Create a FILTLIST member in your 
ACS routine source data set. Make all filter list updates there. Then call the 
COPYFILT macro from the command line to have the changes replicated across all 
of the ACS routines.

I found the Naviquest Manual has some info on COPYFILT in it

International Technical Support Organization NaviQuest Demonstration and 
Hands-On Usage Guide April 1996  SG24-4720

ยท Use COPYFILT for ACS filters
Commonly the ACS changes that you make to include a new data subtype to be 
SMS-managed are to FILTLISTs. The DFSMS FIT process recommends that you have a 
single member that includes all FILTLISTs used by all ACS routines. You then 
make changes to the FILTLISTs in this single member.
After all changes are made, you can move all FILTLISTs from the single member 
to each of the ACS routines.

NaviQuest has a COPYFILT command to help you in the maintenance of FILTLISTs. 
The COPYFILT command automatically moves the FILTLISTs from a single PDS member 
to each of your ACS routines. COPYFILT also enforces change control 
documentation.

You've got my curiousity turned on and I searched my *ss off since your first 
post! It was indeed a long time I saw any announcement for ACS enhancements if 
at all. 

But then I wonder if you were thinking about 'COPYFILT macro: COPYLIB facility 
for FILTLISTs'. Granted that is for initial SMS setup.

On the otherside, I wonder if you were refering to FILTERDD in DFDSS. There you 
can probably concatenate at your leisure...

Hmmm, perhaps time for a Share thing? Think of it: one set of Include/exclude 
for DB2 folks, another for other dbas, etc.
