I knew why the flashcopy is not activiated because it does not support multvolume data set.....but I am using DS8100 is it same
DFSMSdss attempts to allocate the target data set on the same device type in the same ESS if the source data is in an ESS. This increases the probability that FlashCopy can be used to copy the data. However, FlashCopy cannot be used if the source data set is multivolume and is not contained entirely in one ESS subsystem. The reason that FlashCopy cannot be used is because all source and target devices must be in one ESS subsystem in order to establish a FlashCopy relationship. These data sets will not be processed with FlashCopy and will be allocated to whatever volumes are available, irrespective of their FlashCopy capability. thanks *********************************************************** This message contains confidential information which is intended only for the person or entity to which it is addressed.
