Managing Data Sets z/OS DFSMS Introduction SC23-6851-00 |
|
When a tape volume is used on the system, DFSMSrmm automatically records information, such as expiration dates, about each data set on the volume. DFSMSrmm uses these expiration dates along with the retention and movement policies you define to determine when to release the volume. DFSMSrmm provides options that you can use to retain data sets and volumes:
DFSMSrmm prevents volumes that contain unexpired data from being used as scratch
volumes. With DFSMSrmm, you can manage volumes and data sets under the following
conditions:
DFSMSrmm supports generic data set names as filter criteria for searching the control data set, making it easier to create lists of resources. DFSMSrmm provides the same support for dates as DFSMSdfp. DFSMSrmm records all dates using a 4-digit year and also allows you to specify dates using the 4-digit year. |
