It contains nothing, but it takes valuable DASD space. While other 
(non-epmty) datasets are being migrated, or even deleted after specified 
time/conditions the empty file remains on DASD.

Re: SMS - HSM invalid DSORG

2005-09-14 Thread Ambat Ravi Nair
have a default dataclass for errant allocations;
my routine looks something like this:

WHEN ((DSTYPE NE 'TEMP')   AND
  ((DSORG NE 'PO')  OR
   (DSORG NE 'VS')  OR
   (DSORG NE 'DA'))AND
  (DSORG EQ ''))
DO
  SET DATACLAS = 'DCPS'
  EXIT
END

DCPS is my naming convention for Dataclass for DSORG=PS;
no space values, nothing, except for DSORG=PS.

How do other shop's manage these datasets?

I don't understand what is the reason to double check DSORG.
Why not
  WHEN ((DSTYPE NE 'TEMP')   AND
   (DSORG EQ ''))
 DO

Just curious.

Re: SMS - HSM invalid DSORG

2005-09-14 Thread Mark Steely
During research if the file was never backed up and the customer was
trying to determine if that file was empty or not at a certain time, the
customer would have to guess that if the file is not backed up then it
was empty. I would rather the file be there empty or not so no guessing
was involved. 

Thanks

Assigning a dataclass to a data set fills in the DCB parameters only
during allocation.  If the data set already exists, it has no affect.
 
But if the data set is never opened, why do you want HSM to process it?
It contains nothing.

Mark,

Good question 1 or 2 answers.

1. a few products depend on it being unknown... It should be marked 
(IMO) as DA.
2. See 1 and until a few years ago HSM would not touch them (and 
would given an error telling you he couldn't touch them until DFDSS 
became a datamover for DFHSM then it could touch them (if you have it 
specified to do so).

Did you assign a DATACLAS?   Assign a DATACLAS to every data set just make
it a nice empty one call it STANDARD or something and you should not see
this.
