In case you did not see this, Share is sponsoring the following webinar (free)
An Introduction to DFSMS Date and Time: Thursday, September 5, 12:00 p.m. ET Speaker: Steve Pryor, Senior Software Designer at DTS Software, Inc. Description: Learn in detail the aspects of SMS constructs, ACM routine coding and DASD. DFSMS plays a vital role in the data center, controlling DASD datasets throughout their life cycle, from initial allocation to final expiration. The ACS routines and the SMS constructs (data class, storage class, management class, and storage group) are at the heart of system-managed storage and an understanding of their function and coding is important for any z/OS user. This session will provide an introduction to DFSMS, including a discussion of the most important aspects of each of the SMS constructs, examples of ACS routine coding, and a discussion of SMS management of tape as well as DASD. Steve Pryor is a senior software designer at DTS Software, Inc., with over 30 years of experience in the design, development, and support of z/OS storage systems. He has spoken at numerous SHARE and other industry conferences and has taught on storage topics both domestically and internationally. He currently teaches courses in Innovation Data Processing's FDRABR DASD management system and other topics. He is also a stage actor. Register today. This should be good for those not as familiar with DFSMS as you would like. http://www.share.org/p/cm/ld/fid=28 Lizette ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to [email protected] with the message: INFO IBM-MAIN
