Hi, If you show us the RMM LV result, we could investigate the volume status. Anyway, the current RMM Volume registry must be unreliable.

Does a an IDCAMS DEFINE VOLUMEENT automatically generate an RMM AV action? ( I think I have seen that action happen a long time ago when tapes were Moved from INSERT to SCRATCH at the old 3494 libraries). So far, nothing I can do gets the VTS to move a tape out of USER or OPEN to SCRATCH. And the library refuses to ever move anything from SCRATCH to EJECT and PURGE the volume.

Re: IBM VTS category definition
Hi, "Expire time" in TS7700 scratch category means when TS7700 deletes the scratched volume file on the TVC after the volume's category was changed from private to scratch. Before the scratched volume file on the TVC is deleted, you can reuse the volume data by changing the volume attribute from scratch to private. But "Expire Time" is based on the best effort. If all scratch volumes which exceed expire time are exhausted, scratch volumes which don't exceed expire time will be selected as scratch volume. In this situation, you can't reuse the volume data before overwritten. So if you want to ensure that scratch volumes which don't exceed expire time are not selected for scratch volume, you need to check "Expire Hold". Best regards, Nobuhiko Furuya(古谷信彦) V-SOL Inc.

Try changing this line from:

to
ARG hsmcmd':'seconds .
it's possible that the the parameter was entered with a trailing space and now
it does not have a trailing space. Try the original program with a trailing
space, if it fails then try changing the line as I suggested and execute it
again with a trailing space. It should work correctly after the change.

If you do not specify time, GETMSG uses a time value of 0 seconds. If the

But I have understood the reason because QUERYSET is coded as follows.
Sorry I have not checked the rexx correctly.
msghsm = getmsg('resp.','SOL','HSM',,22)
The last "22" is wait time from console interface.
When I changed the value to 3, the response was reasonable.
"22" seems too long as a sample.

Hi, I'm not familiar with QUERYSET, but there is a single thread that processes
certain commands (QUERY, LIST, etc), so it's possible that the QUERY was queued
up behind one or more other commands that took longer to run.

Re: Tape drive sharing
Hi Kobayashi-san, If your environment is not a sysplex configuration, you can't vary the tape drives online from multiple MVSes at a time. If you are using sysplex configuration, you can implement AutoSwitch. AutoSwicth can be implemented with AutoSwitch parameter in IODF(not IOCP but MVSCP) definition or VARY cuuu,AS,ON command. If the tape drives are defined with AutoSwich attribute, you can vary online them from multiple MVSes at a time. Of course even in AutoSwitch, a tape drive can be used from only 1 MVS physically at a time.

Re: ZSORT support for program invoked sort
Hi Dave, Thank you for you quick answer. OK, I understand the Db2 Reorg Utility in variable length data sort is the only exception. But basically DFSORT is to reject program invoked ZSORT with ICE267I RSN=200 (DFSORT was invoked via a program and is not supported with the use of the IBM Integrated Accelerator for Z Sort). Which APAR changed DFSORT to accept Db2 Reorg Utility with variable data length ZSORT as the exception ? Or is the above logic included from the beginning(PH03027) even though it is not stated ? Best regards, Nobuhiko Furuya(古谷信彦) V-SOL Inc. On 2022/01/27 20:34, David Betten wrote: Db2 Utilities is the only exception to the program invoked restriction. And reading the APAR, you'll notice even that is limited to "variable length data sort of the REORG TABLESPACE utility". The reason for these restrictions is that data has to be fed into the sort at a high speed to realize benefit from the accelerator. The DFSORT and Db2 Utility teams had to do extensive work to optimize the interface of passing records between the utility and sort tasks to achieve that. A user program invoking DFSORT would not have that optimization and thus would not realize benefit from the accelerator.
