John, If they really Love Windows, make it similar. Create a Filtlist with only one entry like '*.**.COMPRESS'. Only datasets that match this filter will be compressed...

I have a DATACLAS (named DCEXTC) created which implements this. The DATACLAS works. At present, Data Accelerator works by having a list of dataset names and patterns which are used to determine if (and how) a dataset is to be compressed. The only way that I have found to duplicate this is by using a FILTLIST (actually a number of them) to list the DSNs and patterns to be assigned the DCEXTC DATACLAS. I consider this to be very clumsy and difficult to maintain. Is there an easier way which does not require that the individual DEFINE desks specify the DCEXTC data class? I cannot depend on the programmers to do this correctly. And they would rise up in arms if I tried, anyway. Also, trying to use the &MAXSIZE is likely to be a failure due to the way that our previous storage person set up SMS. Every dataclas has a DVC count of 59. And the storage admin, under pressure from the programming management, just! gave the programmers some vague sizing guidelines. Basically, the DVC count is used the way that StopX37 was used in the past. To make sizing datasets unnecessary. After all, they don't need to size their files on Windows or UNIX, so why do they need to on z/OS? Just more proof that z/OS is obsolete. OOPS, I'm whining again.
