Primary space management causes data to be migrated to ML1 or ML2 depending on: Management Class attributes for SMS datasets SETSYS options (such as MIGRATIONLEVEL1DAYS) for non-SMS datasets
Secondary space management only manages datasets already moved to ML1. What is your real goal? Are you trying to free up tapes or are you trying to keep datasets on primary disks? -----Original Message----- From: IBM Mainframe Discussion List [mailto:IBM-MAIN@bama.ua.edu] On Behalf Of George Rodriguez Sent: Wednesday, March 16, 2011 5:28 AM To: IBM-MAIN@bama.ua.edu Subject: Re: How Do I Eliminate ML2 Migration? Mike, I just found the parm. Here's what I have: DEFINE SECONDARYSPMGMTCYCLE (NNNNNNY CYCLESTARTDATE (1999/08/02)) But I also have: DEFINE PRIMARYSPMGMTCYCLE (YYYYYYY CYCLESTARTDATE(1999/08/02)) Does the primary space management cycle also cause a dataset to go back to ML2 after I've recalled the dataset? ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to lists...@bama.ua.edu with the message: GET IBM-MAIN INFO Search the archives at http://bama.ua.edu/archives/ibm-main.html
