Hmmm...maybe I'm thinking z/VSE, because a CANCEL on a unit address there will interrupt the request.
With a batch job, cancelling the job takes care of that. But one doesn't want to cancel HSM. :-) The CANCEL MOUNT must be taking advantage of the fact that the step name of the MOUNT-generated STC is the unit address, so it's really not a true CANCEL MOUNT, but a CANCEL STC. Unfortunately, I'm not in a position to try it this at the moment. :-) Later, Ray On Nov 19, 2007 12:25 PM, McKown, John <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > -----Original Message----- > > From: IBM Mainframe Discussion List > > [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Ray Mullins > > Sent: Monday, November 19, 2007 2:21 PM > > To: IBM-MAIN@BAMA.UA.EDU > > Subject: Re: DFHSM CANCEL REQUEST > > > > > > (I apologize if this is a duplicate.
