In this example, four different volume serial numbers and four different storage group names are used. Information is collected from migrated data sets and capacity planning information is retrieved.

Job control language statement:

• The DD statement OUTDS describes the sequential output data set where records from data collection is written.

Parameters are:

• OFILE identifies the output data set (USER.DCOLLECT.OUTPUT) by ddname.
• VOL names the volume from which data is to be collected. In this example, VOL is used to collect data for the on line volumes SYS100, SYS101, SYS200 and SYS201.
• STOG names the storage group from which data is to be collected. In this example, STOG is used to collected data from all online volumes that reside in storage groups STGGP100, STGGP101, STGGP200 and STGGP201.
• MIGD creates data records for all migrated data sets that reside on this system.
• CAPD includes capacity planning information in the output data set.
