Multivolume and Multifile z/OS DFSMS Using the Volume Mount Analyzer SC23-6859-00 |

┌─────────────┬──────────────┐ VOLUME 1 │ A.B.C │ D.E.F(1) │ └─────────────┴──────────────┘ ┌─────────────┬──────────────┐ VOLUME 2 │ D.E.F(2) │ X.Y.Z │ └─────────────┴──────────────┘ A multivolume, multifile data set is a part of a collection of data sets that span two or more volumes. The name multivolume, multifile applies to the entire collection of data sets written together, whether each data set actually spans a volume boundary. In other z/OS manuals, this collection of volumes is called an aggregate. In this example, A.B.C, D.E.F, and X.Y.Z are all multivolume, multifile data sets. A.B.C. is file 1; D.E.F is file 2, regardless of the volume; and X.Y.Z is file 3. |
