Requesting primary and migration volume information from the MCDS

Table 1 explains output labels when DFSMShsm lists information from the MCDS for primary and DASD migration volumes.

Table 1. Output labels when you request information from the MCDS for primary and DASD migration volumes
Printer Output Label (OUTDATASET or SYSOUT) Terminal Label Description
VOLSER VOL This field indicates the volume serial number of the primary or migration volume.
DEVICE TYPE DEVTYP This field indicates the name of the unit where this volume can be allocated.
VOLUME TYPE VOLTYPE
Value
Meaning
PRIM
The volume has been added as a primary volume.
P SMS
The volume is known as an SMS-managed volume.
LEV 1
The volume has been added as a migration level 1 volume.
L 1-OV
The OVERFLOW subparameter has been specified on the ADDVOL command for the DASD migration level 1 volume.
L2-AV
The volume has been added as a DASD migration level 2 volume and is still available to be assigned a key range.
L2-UN
The volume has been added as a DASD migration level 2 volume and has already been assigned a key range.
D
The DRAIN attribute has been specified on the ADDVOL command for the DASD migration level 1 or level 2 volume. For example: LEV-1 D, L2-AV D, and L2-UN D.
THRESHOLD HI---LOW

HI-THRESH
LO-THRESH

This field indicates the high and low threshold of occupancy defined for this volume. The low threshold of occupancy applies only to primary volumes. Values for SMS-managed volumes are from storage group attributes that DFSMShsm last retrieved from SMS and are not necessarily the most current values.
FRAG INDEX FRAG This field indicates the qualitative measure of the scattered free space on a volume. The values of the index can range from 0 to 1. The higher the value, the more fragmented the free space on the volume.

HOSTID AUTO-
MIG

AUTO-HOST MIG This field indicates the ID of the DFSMShsm host that assigned the primary volume attribute when making the volume eligible for automatic space management (ADDVOL command AUOTMIGRATION parameter). A value of NONE indicates that the primary volume attribute was not assigned by a DFSMShsm host. SMS-managed volumes and migration level 1 volumes are excluded and this field indicates "****" or "**". This field applies to primary volumes only.

HOSTID AUTO-
BACK

BACK This field indicates the ID of the DFSMShsm host that assigned the primary volume attribute when making the volume eligible for automatic backup (ADDVOL command AUTOBACKUP parameter). A value of NONE indicates that the primary volume attribute was not added by a DFSMShsm host. SMS-managed volumes and migration level 1 volumes are excluded and this field indicates "****" or "**". This field applies to primary volumes only.

HOSTID AUTO-
DUMP

DUMP This field indicates the ID of the DFSMShsm host that assigned the primary volume attribute when making the volume eligible for full-volume automatic dump (ADDVOL command AUTODUMP parameter). A value of NONE indicates that the primary volume attribute was not added by a DFSMShsm host. SMS-managed volumes are excluded and this field indicates "****" or "**". This field applies to primary and migration level 1 volumes only.
AUTO RECL AUTO-RECALL A YES or Y indicates that the volume is eligible to receive data sets that have the primary volume attribute of automatic recall. This field applies only to DFSMShsm primary volumes. SMS-managed volumes are excluded with asterisks (*).
SDSP AVAIL SDSP YES or Y indicates the following:
  • This volume contains a small-data-set-packing data set and
  • This volume was ADDVOLed with the SDSP parameter and
  • The SETSYS SMALLDATASETPACKING command was specified
This field applies only to migration level 1 volumes.
MIN AGE MIN-AGE This field indicates the inactive age of the data set that most recently migrated from the volume during the last volume space management. SMS-managed volumes are excluded with asterisks (*).

MIGRATED
DS--TRKS

MIGDS
MIGTRKS

This is the number of data sets that has been migrated or deleted from the volume during the last volume space management. Tracks are not applicable for level 0 volumes and are excluded with asterisks (*). Both fields are only applicable for the last VOLUME request, not for a LEVEL request like secondary space management.

DATE---TIME
LAST MIGRATED

MIGDATE-TIME This is the date and time of the last migration from this volume if primary, or to this volume if Level 2 DASD. This field is invalid for Level 1 volumes.
SPACE-MGMT TYPE/AGE SPACE-MGMT This is the space management technique assigned to this volume. MIG indicates migration, DBA indicates data set deletion, and DBU indicates data set retirement. Values for SMS-managed volumes are from storage group attributes that DFSMShsm last retrieved from SMS and are not necessarily the most current values.
SPACE-MGMT TYPE/AGE AGE This field applies only to DFSMShsm primary volumes. SMS-managed volumes are excluded with asterisks (*). This is the number of days a data set on this volume must be inactive before it is eligible for the type of space management indicated under SPACE-MGMT. DEFAULT or DEF indicates that the age criteria is not specified for the volume in the ADDVOL command. In this case, the age criteria is the larger of SETSYS days value and integrity value, which is based on whether DFSMShsm is running in a single-DFSMShsm-host environment or in a multiple-DFSMShsm-host environment.
BUDEV CATGY

BACKUP-DEVICE-
CATEGORY

This field indicates the backup device category, tape or DASD, assigned to this volume. If no category has been assigned, the field contains ANY. This field applies only to DFSMShsm primary volumes. SMS-managed volumes are excluded with asterisks (*).
DUMP CLASS DUMPCLASS This is the dump class of the primary or migration volume. Values for SMS-managed volumes are from storage group attributes that DFSMShsm last retrieved from SMS and are not necessarily the most current values.
A field containing only **** is not applicable to this volume (see individual field descriptions in the sample lists).

Figure 2 is a sample printer list of DASD migration level 1 volumes when you specify the MIGRATIONLEVEL1 and MIGRATIONCONTROLDATASET parameters. The format of the printer list for a specific primary or DASD migration volume, for all primary and DASD migration volumes, or for all primary volumes or all DASD migration volumes has the same format as that shown in Figure 1 and Figure 2.
