Use DFSMSdss's logical COPY function to move the data to system-managed
volumes. Specify one or more non-system-managed volumes as target
output volumes to receive the data sets that your ACS routines determine
should be non-system-managed.
When you use the logical COPY function to move the data to system-managed
volumes, DFSMSdss performs the following steps:
- Searches any catalogs for data sets cataloged outside the standard
search order.
You cannot use JOBCAT and STEPCAT statements to
locate system-managed data sets. When placing data sets under system
management, you can use the DFSMSdss INCAT keyword to specify catalogs
that must be searched to find data sets cataloged outside the standard
search order.
- Copies all eligible data sets to system-managed volumes.
These
data sets are also assigned an SMS storage class and management class.
- Places ineligible data sets on the non-system-managed volumes
you specified on the OUTDD or OUTDYNAM parameter.
When you copy
or restore a data set when SMS is active, the storage class ACS routine
is always run. The management class and storage group ACS routines
are run if the storage class ACS routine determines that the data
set should be system-managed.
- Catalogs all system-managed data sets in the standard search order.
