There are lots of reasons primary space management is not finishing. This may be one of them.
What version of DFSMShsm are you running? How many tasks are you using the Primary Space Management? Do most of your MGMTCLAS definitions specify to go to ML1 or directly to ML2 or both? What type of tape drives are you using for Primary Space Management? Are the tapes drives local or remote? What enqueue mechanism are you using for the HSM CDS's (reserves, enqueues, or VSAM RLS)? How many other HSM tasks and functions are using the HSM CDS's? How high is the priority of the HSM work in your system? How many primary volumes is HSM managing? Are you using Fast Subsequent Migration? The answer to these and other questions can help determine what you need to do to get primary space management done faster. -----Original Message----- From: IBM Mainframe Discussion List [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Joe jeffries Sent: Wednesday, December 20, 2006 8:35 AM To: [email protected] Subject: DFHSM Secondary Space Management Hi folks, Just going thru our HSM parmlib and find that we run secondary space management on 1 system per plex EXCEPT on our prod plex where it runs on EVERY system. Could that be why our Primary Space Management never completes on our Prod plex? Or is it just a coincidence? Thanks for any help.
