Re: Displaying multiple volumes allocated from DSLIST
It's just showing that you have 2 additional candidate volumes allocated. They have not yet been assigned.

Re: Displaying multiple volumes allocated from DSLIST
As far as I know, once it is allocated and gets the candidates, it doesn't release them. I'm not sure why it's getting 3 if you have 2 specified. -Original Message- From: IBM Mainframe Discussion List [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Gilbert Cardenas Sent: Wednesday, March 26, 2008 12:06 PM To: IBM-MAIN@bama.ua.edu Subject: Re: Displaying multiple volumes allocated from DSLIST On Wed, 26 Mar 2008 11:37:04 -0400, Cochran, Bill [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: It's just showing that you have 2 additional candidate volumes allocated.

That's kind of what I was thinking but I thought it was kind of weird because the file has been closed so why would it hold on to the additional volume allocations especially if they weren't used. Also, in the dataclass to this dataset, I only specify a volume count of 2 but yet this shows 3 potential volumes? -- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the message: GET IBM-MAIN INFO Search the archives at http://bama.ua.edu/archives/ibm-main.html -- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the message: GET IBM-MAIN INFO Search the archives at http://bama.ua.edu/archives/ibm-main.html
