Did you display the LBACKUP date while the file was migrated? On z/OS
1.10 I only see the actual last Backup date displayed if the dataset is
on a primary volume. If on ML1 or ML2 neither ISMF no LISTC will
display the backup date.
Did you do a
"HMIG dsnamefilter"
(which is a request to migrate to ML1) or
"HMIG dsnamefilter ML2"?
If I try to migrate a dsn with an autobackup management class to ML2 and
there is no backup yet, it fails with "ARC1280I MIGRATION FAILED - DATA
SET IS IN NEED OF BACKUP". If I try to migrate the same dataset to ML1
("ML2" parm omitted), migration succeeds. I think this is because DFHSM
can still do an autobackup from ML1. Or If I then attempt to force a
migrate from ML1 to ML2 with "HMIG dsname ML2" before there is a backup,
I also get the ARC1280I failure.

Mike,
I took your advice and set the MANAGEMENT CLASS AUTO BACKUP=Y.
As a test I created a new dsn using the same HLQ's and Management Class. I
tried the MIGRATE command via batch (using wild cards) it went to ML1 instead
of ML2 which was NOT happening before I changed the AUTO BACKUP from N to Y.
I did a LISTCAT of the dsn but it shows that no backup was done. Inspite of
this the dsn was sent to ML1. Not sure why
LBACKUP ---0000.000.0000
If I understand Joel's post correctly in which he says that "Migration Attributes
for primary and level 1 only apply to auto migration" then the dsn should not have
been sent to ML1 but directly to ML2.
Any suggestions?

You can requre that a successful SMS backup before it allows the
dataset to be migrated.

When the batch job is executed all the dsns (these are all VSAM dsns) are migrated
ML2 - including those that were created this morning before the migrate was done.
According to the Migration Attributes shouldn't those dsns which were created
today& yesterday not be migrated?
Could someone help me understand where else I should look.
Thanks in advance for your help.
