Why?
In an SMS environment, data management is supposed to be taken away from
applications.
As long as the data is responsive, protected, backed up, and meets business
needs, they should not be involved.
(Unless, of course, there are politics)
There is a method in SMS to separate the datasets. However
- it does work on CU basis, not on volume basis (which consistent with
assumptions - to isolate failures)
- it isn't convenient (my opinion, and other SMS admins I know)
- it is rarely in use (see above).
BTW: I fully support Ted's opinion about application role here.
