Hi everyone,
    I may be all wet, but this is my best resource for help on this issue until 
I get back on support with z/OS 1.13.
I am running z/OS 1.11 (unsupported). Back in January, I applied all 
maintenance to bring it up to RSU1301.
For years, I have had a MGMTCLAS of ATMBKUPS with conditional partial release 
and a DATACLAS of TMBKUPLG:
Space Avgrec . . . . . . : M   
      Avg Value  . . . . : 1   
      Primary  . . . . . : 3500
      Secondary  . . . . : 2500
Data Set Name Type  . . . . . : EXTENDED
  If Extended . . . . . . . . : PREFERRED
  Extended Addressability . . : YES      
  Record Access Bias  . . . . : SYSTEM   
Space Constraint Relief . . . : YES      
  Reduce Space Up To (%)  . . : 5        
  Dynamic Volume Count  . . . : 12       
Compaction  . . . . . . . . . : TCOM     

I know that the multi-volume striping will not do the partial release at close, 
but I thought that HSM migration/recall was resulting in the release of unused 
space in these datasets. 
Last week, I had several failures to allocate these datasets and noticed that 
even after recall, these datasets remain at 65616 tracks usually about 5% used. 

Have I been fooling myself that this large (never run out while actually 
writing the SMF data) and release at migration ever worked? I suspect IBM will 
not be real helpful until I can reproduce on z/OS 1.13 which will be later this 
year.
