Hi Lisette.
In response to your questions:
1) Time frame to move data to server? I have from now until early 2014.
2) Efforts involved? Do you have a large staff, small staff? Do you have
time to write exits for HSM and redirect the HSM data? Once I have an idea of
the size, then we will see ho
your case, but we have here HSM exits, to use HFS (Unix)
dataset in the place of ML2
So with this exit we migrate/recall everything from/ to HFS (Unix) .

My company is in the process of sun setting our MF.
We have about 40 TBytes of data under HSM control.
I have been tasked with the responsibility to pull the data and put it under a
Unix/Linux system as an archived data.
The only time we will need to reference it (without the MF) is in case some o
It is not only SNA I worry about, it is the entire MVS/zOS world.
In two years my company will have moved the last production application out of
our Mainframe.
This is a company that has been in businesss for 80+ years with a MF since they
first became commercially available.

Let's say I have a tape with multiple datasets inside.
Some datasets may be catalogued, some may not.
I can understand the once not catalogued when they expire they no longer hold

But what about those cases when the catalogued datasets hit their expiration

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

The problem is that I am getting

I keep on getting messages that the Journal dataset is 80% (which I confirmed

My plan is to shutdown HSM, rename the existing file, create a new one with the
same characteristics, copy the renamed file, and bring up HSM.
Is my thinking appropriate?
Thank you.

I could be mistaken but that is not how the H1B visa process normally works.
IBM must post the job to see what kind of response they get in a media often
used by other companies to find similar employees. The salary must match a
median for the position as established by referencing similar jobs.
What kind of money are you talking about?
is it full time, on-site work?
