Re: HSM Journal dataset is almost full
OK, mission accomplished. The Journal is now larger. Thank you all for your participation and help, particularly Walter.

Re: HSM Journal dataset is almost full
I hope you were now able to enlarge your hsm journal, which was your goal. I am coming to work this SAT to try again. This time I will be showing up in person so I can see what is going on with all the LPAR's. We found the OPS/MVS rule and it is being disabled. They are also checking in all the LPARs to make sure the rule is disabled in all of them.

Re: HSM Journal dataset is almost full
From: Uriel Carrasquilla uriel.carrasqui...@mail.mcgill.ca When I look at the LOG, I can see that OPS/MVS is involved and might be the culprit: this explains why hsm restarts after being shutdown. But it also means your automation product is not setup identically on all your LPARs., otherwise you would have seen the same behavior for the other hsm in the plex. Also, reading better what the RESTART parameter can do, it seems as it restarts hsm in case the latteris abnormally ended, which was not your case. I hope you were now able to enlarge your hsm journal, which was your goal.

Re: HSM Journal dataset is almost full
From: Uriel Carrasquilla uriel.carrasqui...@mail.mcgill.ca When we shutdown HSM in all of our LPARs without setting them in the EMERGENCY mode, we never had any problems with HSM re-starting. Under chapter 14 DFSMShsm Libraries and Procedure of the DFSMShsm Implementation and Cust. Guide. there are a couple of sentences which confirm what you claim: Using the RESTART Keyword to Automatically Restart DFSMShsm after an Abnormal End: If you are running DFSMShsm in an MVS/ESA environment, you can use the RESTART keyword in the DFSMShsm startup procedure to automatically restart DFSMShsm after an abnormal termination. When you specify the RESTART keyword in the DFSMShsm start procedure, no operator intervention is required to automatically restart DFSMShsm. The protocol for the RESTART keyword is: RESTART=(A,B), where A is required and is the name of the DFSMShsm procedure to be started, and B is optional and specifies any additional parameters to be passed to the procedure. Figure 88 on page 333 is an example of the DFSMShsm startup procedure. Notice that the EMERG keyword NO allows all DFSMShsm functions and that the RESTART keyword restarts DFSMShsm automatically. However, when DFSMShsm is restarted the status of the EMERGENCY keyword in the restarted procedure is YES. When EMERG=YES, DFSMShsm does not allow any functions to start. Looks like I learned something new. Have a look at RESTART keyword in your procedure. What do you mean when you say hsm is defined under ARM? ARM is the Automatic Restart Manager, which allows you to define Started Tasks or Address Spaces which need to be restarted in case they are down (very short definition).

Re: HSM Journal dataset is almost full
yes, every hsm instance sharing the journal dataset must be put in emergency mode (1), and also be stopped (3). Walter Marguccio Walter, very kind of you. I will go it this weekend before we IPL with the new time here in the US. We ran into problems. We put HSM in emergency in 3 LPARS (all of them sharing HSM). We ran the BACKVOL command in the main LPAR. Then, we stopped HSM in all 3 LPARS. But, for some reason, in the main LPAR, HSM would restart automatically everytime we stopped it. So I could not drop the existing Journal to switch to a bigger one. The procedure we followed: F DFSMSHSM, SETSYS EMERGENCY (in all 3 LPARS) F DFSMSHSM, BACKVOL CONTROLDATASETS (in main LPAR) F DFSMSHSM, STOP (in al 3 LPARS) But then we noticed that in the main LPAR, DFSMSHSM would just start by itself. I could not switch to a bigger Journal file so we issued the S DFSMSHSM command in the remaining 2 LPARS. Why is DFSMSHSM re-starting by itself?

Re: HSM Journal dataset is almost full
I made the wrong comment. the F DFSMSHSM,BACKVOL CDS command is running on a schedule. When it runs, last time was yesterday, the HSM1.JRNL dataset does get reset to empty.

So my thinking is that I either run the BACKVOL command more often or increase the size of the HSM1.JRNL dataset. If I was to increase the size of the HSM1.JRNL dataset, what would be the best practice?
