Hi James, I have sent you an Email with several documents including a project plan, so this should get you going. Major observations:
1) Garbage In = Garbage Out Cleaning up all TMC volume (VOL) and data set (DSNB) chaining errors is mandatory, but also perform a housekeeping exercise to identify and delete any other obsolete or erroneous TMC resources (E.g. Locations, Volumes, et al). 2) DFSMSrmm runs in parallel (Warning Mode) with any other TMS Use this feature wisely. Perform the actual conversion as many times as you need to, but run in parallel for at least a week, ideally a month, anything longer might be overkill. This allows all personnel (E.g. Operations, Storage Administration, et al) an opportunity to acclimatise. There will be differences in the way that DFSMSrmm performs expiration (E.g. Scratch via EXPROC) and vaulting (E.g. Move via DSTORE). 3) Decide on your reporting strategy CA-1 has its own built in reports and we have probably used these for years and take them for granted. DFSMSrmm has a plethora of reporting options but doesnt have a Generalised Report Writer (E.g. TMSGRW) and so your options are numerous (E.g. DFSMSrmm House-Keeping Reports, Sort, Rexx, SAS, et al). You just need to decide which methodology is best for your installation. Generally I would recommend creating a flat file from the DFSMSrmm CDS via the EDGHSKP REPTEXT function and this file has numerous mapping macros (E.g. MXG, ASM DESCT, et al) and so the world is your oyster so to speak Regards, UK Mikey. PS. I have performed nn DFSMSrmm conversions since the early 1990s and if I can do them, it should be a walk in the park for you!
