Hello all, thx for your replies, this situation happens on a single image, so, according to your replies I think I can do it as follows: a) define a new ACDS: //STEP EXEC PGM=IDCAMS //SYSUDUMP DD SYSOUT=* //SYSPRINT DD SYSOUT=* //SYSINDD * DEFINE CLUSTER(NAME(SMS.DESV.ACDS) - LINEAR - VOL(*) - CYL(75) SHAREOPTIONS(2,3)) - DATA(NAME(SMS.DESV.ACDS.D) REUSE) b) SETSMS SAVEACDS(SMS.DESV.ACDS) c) SETSMS ACDS(SMS.DESV.ACDS) PARMLIB/IGDSMS00 defs are ok. No need to change them. Is this disruptive ?? I never did such a thing. What happens to active jobs ?? Is it better to this out of busy period?? Thx in advance, A.Cecilio.

Hello, can anyone give me an hint about how to control SG occupancy, like, hourly have a msg to syslog with a list of selected SGs with 75% of occupancy.

Re: DFSMS/DASD: Control SG occupancy
Thx to all your replies. The issue here is not about the automation, is how to create the msg to syslog. I was thinking of something like (rexx, report, tool, etc) where I could get ISMF/SG %FREE SPACE or MXI SGRP %use values (these are examples). It's seems that it's not straight forward.

Hi Allan, msg generation it's a hint, I was thinking of some tool to send a msg on syslog and automation picks it and do whatever we wanted, But if there's a way to do it all, great..

Re: DFSMS SG POOL Enablement
thx for your help, regarding your "1 - update an SCDS and then activate it" how can I do that activation in batch ?? I run what I think it was correct and it didn't work. pool remained disable for all hosts. What I did was just ismf,opt8,ACTIVATE SCDS and them pool got ENABLE, what I did by ispf panels, isn't the same as SETSMS SCDS cmd???
