Terri, sorry to lead you astray. I guess my brain wasn’t in gear this afternoon. The suggestion Allan gave you is probably the best. If it were my decision, it wouldn’t be worth the effort to convert, but next upgrade Serverpack, I would make the change.

If applicable, IPL onto the new ones, before deleting the old ones. I use DFDSS to clone filesystems as a regular part of maintenance. If they are mounted READ only, then the DFDSS job can be run anywhere. If mounted RDWR, you need to either unmount, or expect DFDSS to temporarily quiesce the filesystem from updates while running. _________________________________________________________________ Dave Jousma Manager Mainframe Engineering, Assistant Vice President david.jou...@53.com 1830 East Paris, Grand Rapids, MI 49546 MD RSCB2H p 616.653.8429 f 616.653.2717 -----Original Message----- From: IBM Mainframe Discussion List [mailto:IBM-MAIN@LISTSERV.UA.EDU] On Behalf Of Shaffer, Terri Sent: Tuesday, September 19, 2017 2:11 PM To: IBM-MAIN@LISTSERV.UA.EDU Subject: Extended format system ZFS files **CAUTION EXTERNAL EMAIL** **DO NOT open attachments or click on links from unknown senders or unexpected emails** So I have a question. Is it possible to convert my z/OS system ZFS files from SMS Extended to Non-SMS datasets? What would be the process? Repro out and back? Is there a simpler way? I know technically this works fine, but I don’t like my system datasets being SMS managed and the previous person here set this up.
