Only if you are certain that your product is the only user of the datasets in question.
Since the datasets have been assigned a storage group, they must be SMS managed. That means they must be catalogued. Since you want to move them to another storage group, they must be catalogued there also. So you can have at most one copy at a time with a given name. ADRDSSU can accomplish this if your ACS routines will assign the correct storage group based on a storage class you specify. However, each datasets in the linklist has a "permanent" enque posted against its DSN. I don't know if any recent updates allow you to deque the DSN. It might be simpler to give the new copies of the datasets new names. There are operator commands that let you copy a linklist, remove existing entries from the new copy, add a new ones to the new copy, and activate the new list. All new address spaces will then use the new list but all address spaces currently in execution will continue to use the old list until they terminate. The APF list is easier since there are commands to update that on the fly. After you have tested the changes, be sure to update the PARMLIB members that create the linklist and APF list at IPL. After you IPL, the original DSNs will no longer be enqued and you can delete them at will. > -----Original Message----- > From: IBM Mainframe Discussion List [mailto:[email protected]] On > Behalf Of Jake Anderson > Sent: Wednesday, April 20, 2016 8:29 AM > To: [email protected] > Subject: Dataset Move Query > > Hi, > > I have got a product running with few Libraries who are in In different > storage Group.To Move this Datasets to a different Storage Group.
