Allan, Did you mean put the ML1 volume into Drain status using the Addvol command? Then use the Freevol command to move data off of the ML1 volume prior to re-init. >From the HSM Admin Reference: 2. If you want to move all eligible data sets from a specific migration level 1 volume or a specific migration level 2 DASD volume to other migration level 2 volumes, you must use the FREEVOL command. See "FREEVOL command: Freeing DFSMShsm-owned volumes" in topic 2.21. -----Original Message----- From: Staller, Allan [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Wednesday, January 29, 2014 8:51 AM To: [email protected] Subject: Re: VTOCIX out of VIRs, how to reorg? 1) Free the volume from HSM ML1 use (temp). HSEND MIGRATE VOLUME(xxxxxx) days(0). I believe there are other commands that may also work. 2) reinit the volume with VTOC(000,1,1499) INDEX(100,0,105) (increase the size of the index from 74 to 105). ISTR a page in the ICKDSF manual(?) that describes the MAX VTOC/MAX INDEX if *EVERY* dataset on the volume were 1 track and the volume were 100% utilized. AFAIK, there is no other way to "re-org" or "re-index" the volume. Are you sure it is the VTOCIX that is filling? It could be that the SDSP dataset is full. HTH, <snip> We have a system that has Mobius creating a large number of small datasets, unfortunately named HLQ.pgmname.ddname.R#.Dyymmdd.Thhmmss. They migrate to ML1 volumes with SDSP. We defined the VTOC as 1500 tracks (plenty of free space) and 74 tracks VTOCIX (down to 3 and can't write anymore). I think the ICKDSF BUILDOS / BUILDIX process will re-init the index to allow migrates. Is there any other way to reorg the VTOCIX to get the space back? Its not VSAM so CA-Reclaim does not work on it. </snip> ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to [email protected] with the message: INFO IBM-MAIN ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to [email protected] with the message: INFO IBM-MAIN ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to [email protected] with the message: INFO IBM-MAIN
