2) Uncatalog the clone library
|
Expat,
Thats my issue. I cannot uncatalog the clone library because I placed it on an SMS controlled volume. Even if I placed it on a non-SMS controlled volume, how do I uncatalog the original which is on an SMS volume.
There should just be a force command, let me do it, I know what I'm doing parm. I wouldn't even mind if it generated a pop up window saying "Are You Sure ?" |

You create the clone library as a different name from the original.
i.e. ABC.LOADLIB is copied to ABC.LOADLIB.COPY
Then, use IDCAMS DELETE NOSCRATCH to uncatalog the ABC.LOADLIB.COPY, then rename it to ABC.LOADLIB using IEHPROGM whilst it is uncatalog'd, because IDCAMS will expect the dataset to be catalog'd for RENAME processing and will fail because it can not find the target dataset.
If IDCAMS doesn't work for the uncatalog, try IEHPROGM to do the uncatalog. |

UNCATALOG OF AN SMS MANAGED DATA SET IS NOT ALLOWED ... UNUSUAL END
I tried IEFBR14 and IDCAMS Delete nonvsam nscr as well.. SMS is just not going to allow it. |

Unless I'm missing something, NO SMS managed dataset can be uncataloged....... |

| I would guess that maybe this could be a site specific issue as I have NEVER seen that message before when I have used either IDCAMS or IEHPROGM to uncatalog a dataset |

Hi,

Then we can try to allocate the DSN on non-SMS volume & delete it from SMS volume.
I think an ACS routine can override the storage class that you specify on the STORCLAS parameter. Per manuals (QW) STORCLAS can be omitted even if SMS is active if an Automatic Class Selection (ACS) SMS exit is in use at your site.
Please check the last 5-6 posts from this thread, they tell how can one overide or place a DSN on a NON-SMS volume.

I tried it, ah.. I'm not a storage guy, hard time in getting volume-serials numbers of non-SMS vloumes ( if any at my site). By the time you can give a try, might help. |

I think that has been what the prevalent recommendation has been..... |

| Can you not leave (or get scheduled) a job to perform the library renames as soon as CICS comes down ? |

I'm as confused as you, heck I can't even spell ACS, let alone what to do with it....
Just to say, that after I started working in an SMS environment, there had always been a way to assign an allocation to a non SMS volume, it was limited and it did not last long (not even overnight usually), but it could be done....... |

I'm not.. , well, I just can't try it that fast as a system/storage guy could..
Some shops implement this by code in the ACS routine like this:
| Code: |
| IF &STORCLASS='NONSMS' THEN SET STORCLAS='' |
But then there are other ways that the ACS routines can have a
| Code: |
| THEN SET STORCLAS='' |
e.g. it may just be coded that if you specify a certain (NONSMS) volser in your JCL then the ACS code will "honour" the allocation.
| Code: |
| IF &ANYVOL='SYS%%%' THEN SET STORCLAS='' |
Again, I'm not a storage guy, but an application engineer (only 'they' say, I still feel I'm quite dum*.. ) all above written I know because manual says so & perhaps it's been posted in this forum as well. I never tried it but one in need can..
BTW, he already decided something ..
