Michael,   The DSORG is ? or NONE.  This could be the reason (as you have said and documented).  The backup attributes is as follows:   Backup Attributes      Backup frequency  . . . . . . . . . . . : 1      Number of backup versions .

Re: DFHSM QUESTION - MANAGEMENT CLASS

You can execute a IEBGENER to force an open/close and set the DSORG to PS. DFHSM will then be able to backup the data set and then you can migrate it to ML2. You can always issue a migrate to ML1 after you perform the GENER and DFHSM will handle everything from that point on. I would recomm
