Hello Johnny,
Does your backup job use generic dataset masks for the INCLUDE list?
Search the archives for earlier posts on DF/DSS using the older SVC26
interface to retrieve CATALOG data.
In one case here a job took 2 hours to build the dataset list before mounting
the first output tape.
Bruce,
Thanks a lot!!!
I must say, it's a great idea. We have lots of job runing hours to backup
data sets both in production and test environment and they all use generic
filter.
The possible performance gain is well worth doing and I will work on it
right now.
The rexx requires some

OK, it seems that the weirdness happens on one of the jobs when the stacked
file count hits 25. At the 25th file a change was put in to have subsequent
files go to another tape volulme. Strange in any case!

We have shared the RMM environment across muliple releases of the operating

I'm curious about that choice of words. It could mean:
1. One-on-one mentoring
2. Self-study (books, media, internet)
I don't see any conflict in those statements. As I understand it,
client/server doesn't share the control dataset, only the server accesses the
CDS - the client makes requests through the server.

Barry,
To confirm, the ACS that I posted is the current version. I am still unable
to figure out which WHEN condition is kicking in. When I coded the unit
volser, the dsn was allocated on the non-SMS pack. When I coded the only
unit=3390, SMS directed the dsn to a SMS managed dasd.
For your first IEBGENER:
WHEN (ANYVOL = VOL_NONSMS OR HLQ = HLQ_NONSMS)
SET STORCLAS = ''
For your second IEBGENER:
WHEN (HLQ = POOL_GDVX OR DSN = GDVX_DSN)
SET STORCLAS = 'SCDEV'
